~ EVOLVING INTO PURE CONSCIOUSNESS ~

[Arising_uk]

You're - FTFYI

Sleep seems obvious enough.

Normal consciousness - waking sleep - you'll have to describe what a waking sleep is for me to understand what on earth you and he are rabbiting on about as normal consciousness normally means what we and other the animals do but with us the added viewpoint that we know we are doing it.

Self-consciousness - is?

Higher consciousness - that has access to a higher emotional & higher intellectual function - you're just repeating the words I asked you to describe? What do you mean by 'higher emotional'?

What do you mean by 'higher intellectual function'?

So far you appear just like all the 'esoteric' gnus past, present and for evermore in that you appear unable to describe what you are talking about and provide bugger-all in the way of techniques or methods to achieve your claims.

If you are interested in psychology, which is the root of philosophy, I suggest that you begin a quest of study. Follow your intuition.

Don't know where it will lead you but I am mature enough to know you will arrive where you should.



Good luck my minion in your study of the basics of philosophy.

"What do you mean by 'higher intellectual function'?"

Bill wants to be a computer program and thinks you should want the same for yourself.

Again, if you want to gain a more in-depth perspective of what I have introduced, I suggest a self-study into the subjects that I have brought-up here.


Good luck with that.


BTW my personal experience of higher consciousness, sometimes called objective consciousness, innately requires that you have an experience of it. No way can you even begin to understand objective consciousness.

I can't comment on this without some idea of what the heck "pure" versus "impure" consciousness would even refer to.

What makes consciousness pure or impure?

[attofishpi]

Bill's telling us he doesnt have a brain tumor...his consciousness is pure.

I think this might relates to how much beer Bill has quaffed today.

"personal experience of higher consciousness, sometimes called objective consciousness"

Navel gazing....self indulgent manure.

[Terrapin Station]

Good answers so far.

No its not, Logic is the root of Philosophy.

Follow your intuition.

I prefer Reason.

Don't know where it will lead you but I am mature enough to know you will arrive where you should.

More gnushit but applying it to you appears to have led you to confusion.

Good luck my minion in your study of the basics of philosophy.[/size].

Already done, you should try it sometime as it'd clear up your puzzlement about so many things.

[Hobbes' Choice]

Good answers so far.

Impure during the day when there are inconvenient things such as fact that get in the way; problems of earning a living; everyday chores that fill his puff from toilet cleaning to vacuuming the floor.
Pure when his alcohol meter has reached past the sufficient percentage.

Of course not as it is a contradiction of terms and only the gnu can think of it as a truth. Tell you what, tell us what you did to get this happening. What techniques can you provide for others to test your claims?

No wonder you're so confused.

When you make the statement that machines are not self-conscious tell me that while you are riding in a self-driving car making crypto-currency trades that are specifically initiated by an associated computer.


Are human beings capable of a much higher degree of self-consciousness - ABSOLUTELY.





.

I don't know what "self-driving cars" and "crypto currency" has to do with machine consciousness. Perhaps you could explain it to me. The most powerful and sophisticated computers in operation at the moment are as conscious as a rock.

[Bill Wiltrack]

Machine do now what we considered to be able to accomplish only by humans.


You can have a conversation with a voice activated robot. Self-driving cars have thousands of perception prompts with the outside environment per second. All major stock trades on the big boards are done through automated buy & sell contracts. Done faster and with more time sensitive precision than a human could.

Word programs correct your spelling and suggest sentence structure.

There are thousands of examples of revolutionary models that have become a part of what is known as the Third Industrial Revolution.

You may not be able to understand it, but it's here.
