🦠 Consciousness – Does It Really Require a Brain🧠? The notion that consciousness arises exclusively in the human brain is increasingly being questioned in modern philosophy of mind and neuroscience. Based on the theory of neuroscientist Giulio Tononi, a fascinating perspective emerges: 👉 Consciousness could arise wherever certain forms of integrated information processing exist. This would mean: Not only complex living beings with brains possess consciousness—but possibly even single-celled organisms in a fundamental form. The brain would therefore not be the “source” of consciousness, but rather a highly developed biological structure for organizing and intensifying conscious processes. In the Zoomposium with Prof. Dr. Godehard Brüntrup SJ, these very questions will be discussed: 🔹 Does consciousness require a new metaphysics? 🔹 Can panpsychism fill a gap in our understanding? 🔹 What role do process philosophy and liberal naturalism play? 🔹 And what do near-death experiences mean for our understanding of mind and reality? Perhaps consciousness is not a phenomenon unique to humans—but a fundamental principle of nature itself. 📎 Information: https://philosophies.de/index.php/2022/09/27/metaphysik-des-bewusstseins/ 🎥 Interview: https://youtu.be/hoqiI_TElv4

Volcanic vents on seabed continued to spew lava, more accurately minerals being burned in the core were thrust up through volcanic vents where some of them would be ejected into the ocean, we know from the formation of diamonds from carbon under extreme heat and preassure in the core and mantel of the earth and from carbon and carbon based minerals from the same area that carbon is an abundant resource within the Earth. All life on Earth is comprised of “Carbon Based Lifeforms” this means that the initial matterial basis for life on Earth is derived from carbon. Some of the carbon being super heated by the lava and then quickly cooled by the oceans and imbued with the energy of the star core of the Earth came out of oceanic volcanic vents as a maluable and morphic microscopic material known as cell membrane, this means that early bacteria or single celled organisms/microbes were freed from the mineral carbon form by intense heating and cooling until solid but flexible microscopic membranes developed imbued with the energetic consciousness of life directly from the planets own star core. These microbes through the process of cell division were able to divide into multiple microbes and quickly spread.
