Today’s conversation is with my good friend Mark Gober. We discuss the common themes of his 7-book series that seeks to end our upside down view of various aspects of life.These themes involve challenges to the mainstream view of materialism and determinism and especially the view that consciousness arises from the brain; in other words, that the physical manifests the non-physical. But this idea has never been proven.So what is consciousness?Why is it important to contemplate the nature of our thinking?What are the implications for our everyday lives?Join us for a fascinating discussion about how we can reverse the upside down view and turn everything the right side up.Dawn 🌹Useful Resources:My Odysee Channel for the video versionHow to find and support Mark:Mark Gober website Telegram channel - @MarkGoberOfficialInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/markgober_author/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/mark.gober.3X - https://x.com/MarkGoberAuthorYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@markgober6725Where is My Mind Podcast episodes - including the full length versions - at this link https://www.markgober.com/podcast-sign-upMark is also a speaker at the Living Free Festival 2025 in Australia - https://www.livingfreefestival.org/speakersHow To Support Me:What Really Makes You Ill?Dawn’s Writings is a reader-supported publication.
