Tim Ferriss

Seems pretty hard to explain.

And there's enough in terms of documented cases where, at the very least, it raises some interesting questions.

So, what do I think happens when you die?

I mean, the best placeholder that I have is that consciousness is fundamental, just like matter.

I'm not even convinced time is fundamental.

But...

Carlo Rivelli, I think his name is.

Like, there's some really interesting writing from physicists on time.

Like, it's not as static, uniform, constant as one might like to think.

But if consciousness on some level is fundamental, kind of Max Planck style, then I think when you die, it's like a drop return to the ocean.

You think what?

I think that your consciousness is like what we experience as sort of a skin-encapsulated ego.

that we associate with ourself, and all of that can dissolve and go away on psychedelics, right?

And you have the experience of something you might call consciousness without any- A collective consciousness, is that what you're saying?

What was that?

Some type of a collective consciousness.

Sure, something like that, yeah.

Where it's like, yeah, okay, you're a drop of water,

and you just get returned to the ocean.

What does that subjectively mean?
