Consciousness and Simulation
Joscha explores the concept of the mind as a software that simulates both the universe and the self. He discusses how our consciousness emerges from the need to regulate relationships with the outside world and other organisms, leading to the formation of identification and commitments. Letting go of these identifications can lead to a profound sense of freedom, suggesting that true liberation lies in the absence of regulatory targets.In this clip
