The Psychic Emergent Universe
Final series of 5 talks on metaphysics recorded from 1/28/2023 to 12/15/2023. It is meant as a recapitulation of my views and as a clarification of some finer points about the evolution of perception. Part 5 is essentially a farewell to the entire project of doing these videos.

THE P
The-Point
A deep dive into the meaning and significance of a single word in Meher Baba's main book "God Speaks." Obviously I decided to keep this video, as it turned out better than I expected. See also the video titled "Reincarnation According to Meher Baba" as it is closely related to this one.

Metaphysics-11-Facts---Logic
Many people are quick to say they are careful to rely on facts and logic. But many of the people most proud of their careful thinking are not familiar with the complex issues surrounding the discernment of what is and isn't fact, and the limits of what help logic can provide us in making that determination.

Metaphysics-15.-Inner-and-Outer
Philosophers talk a lot about "internal" and "external" experience. They refer continually to the external world or outer world. Some philosophers go further and claim there is no such thing as a private internal world of experience like dreams, thoughts, and memories. See, for example, "Augustine's Invention of the Inner Self" (Oxford University Press 2003). But does such talk of "internal" and "external" perception bring us any closer to explaining our experiential world? In actuality, this strange metaphysical dichotomy of in and out has resulted in numerous paradoxes and conundrums including the infamous mind-body problem. Here we begin to carve a path for a new way of explaining the same distinctions that these terms are meant to account for, without the metaphysical baggage they produce.

The-Psychic-Emergent-Universe-–-Part-1
We question the prevailing paradigm of physicalist cosmology. In its place we propose a theory of psychic emergence.

Metaphysics-17.-Perception-Consciousness
When using the word 'perception' in its full original sense, as it was until the late 19th and early 20th centuries, talk of consciousness is generally redundant. This is because it is already presumed included, since consciousness (wakefulness or awareness) is a necessary precondition for perceiving and so they occur in tandem.

Metaphysics-1.-We-only-perceive-our-own-ideas
The 18th century Irish Philosopher George Berkeley wrote that we only perceive our own ideas. What he meant was that a person only ever experiences his own personal experience. The implications of this are vast.
Recorded in Myrtle Beach, SC June 2023. The full Metaphysics series of 20 videos was uploaded from June 1 - Oct. 3, 2023.

One note: At the end (cut out of this video) a person in the audience said he felt the word in the book and title should have been 'consciousness' instead of 'perception.' This is a common misconception. See my video "Consciousness vs. Perception" at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DfMx31TwFg&t=1s
