I take more of a transparent and raw approach with this episode because, well, I don’t know what I think yet! I’ve been at a new “spiritual” learning edge thanks to recent guidance from Bentinho Massaro, particularly at his recent Non-Duality clinic in Amsterdam. At the same time, I’ve been captivated by recent discussions by skeptics, atheists, and scientists on the topic of Consciousness. 

Interestingly, these topics seem to be converging around at least one really important question: is consciousness fundamental? In other words: is consciousness the fundamental “stuff” that gave rise to all the matter of the universe? Or did consciousness emerge as a byproduct of the physical matter in the universe?

What came first—molecules or awareness?
 
I don’t land on an answer in this episode, but I let you into my realtime process as I consider this topic from multiple angles.
 
I invite you (seriously, for real) to comment and “think with me” — elevate my exploration. What conversations or data points would support this learning trajectory I’m on?
 
Thanks as always for being along for the ride.
