The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

it simultaneously goes through both slits and leaves a signature on the other side of having done so, right?

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

In other words, and this is one of the deepest mysteries of existence, right?

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

At the quantum level,

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

Our act of observation creates the reality that we are observing, and then if we don't observe it, it's another reality, right?

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

So given that deep and unresolvable mystery, is it possible?

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

In the sort of like the electrons in all places at once until we watch it and then it's in one place, in that sort of basic sense of a profound mystery at the quantum level, is it possible that there's an equivalent mystery around biological death, the existence of consciousness, which people still don't understand, right?

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

They can't even define what it is exactly, right?

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

And is there a mystery around that that we not only don't understand, can't understand?

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

And one of the theories, and I'll end with this, but it's a super out there theory.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

It's called biocentrism.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

There's a guy named Adam Lanza that you might be interested in talking to.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

He's a brilliant guy.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

He's one of the sort of pioneers of biocentrism.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

And basically what he's saying is that, look, if consciousness determines reality at the quantum level and the universe ultimately is a quantum reality โ€“

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

It's possible that consciousness is part of โ€“ that there's a subatomic particle associated with consciousness just like the Higgs boson is associated with gravity.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

Like gravity exists because of the Higgs boson.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

It's a subatomic particle that we can measure, right?

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

Maybe consciousness in the same way is part of the physical existence of the universe.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2172 - Sebastian Junger

Without gravity, there is no universe.
