Quote of the Day:
All current Western approaches for consciousness (at least all mainstream ones) are based on materialism — a philosophical stance which holds that the only thing that exists — is matter; that all things are composed of material, and all phenomena (including consciousness) are the result of material interactions. Mainstream scientists like to say, argue — and even insist, that the brain creates consciousness and that consciousness cannot survive without the brain. But if one looks deeper, utilizing the very tools provided by the science itself, namely Quantum Mechanics, it’s just as plausible to argue that consciousness exists before the formation of the brain, and therefore consciousness can exist after the death of the brain. What an astonishing dichotomy, isn’t it? By contrast, non-Western traditions see consciousness as ontologically primary to physical matter, an idea that underlies most of the world’s wisdom traditions, including Zen, Taoism, Buddhism, Vedanta, and Yoga.
