The theory of consciousness being an immaterial form of energy is hardly a new idea. Over 2,000 years ago, the Greek philosopher Plato proposed the existence of a non-physical essence to all things, and that an immortal soul bestowed human consciousness. Though this concept of "mind-body dualism" is still widely held by religious and spiritualists seekers, most contemporary scientists view that consciousness is generated by the brain and its network of billions of nerves. Dr. Karl John Friston, a theoretical neuroscientist and authority on brain imaging joins me to discuss the theory of consciousness, psychedelic and the perception of reality while using the compound, future technologies like the Nerlink and how consciousness will be perceived then, along with how neurodiversity could change our workforce in the years to come.
