Like, how do we know we're not a brain in a jar in a simulation?
What can we actually know is true?
And I think one of the few things we can know is true is that we're aware of the fact that we are aware.
And therefore...
Maybe it makes sense to really put that under a microscope, try to understand it, which mindfulness and meditation practice has done for millennia as well.
So that would be if I had to pick a fourth, just to round out the dinner table.
Someone who has a lot of experience.
I've known one guy in particular, Henry Shookman, who I've ended up doing some collaborations with because he just blew me away.
But he's specifically a Zen practitioner, which is like...
layering weird on top of weird, but in ways that are
oddly productive, like koans and so on.
What a strange thing.
So I'll leave it at that.
But those would be four I'd put around the table.
Thanks for having me, man.
