Evidence of this?
and what's that got to do with external existence of consciousness?
And I think I heard of that experiment. I believe there was flaws in the methodology to the point where they point where they put the cart before the horse.
I know ya'll are apt to think some dudes in robes and broken english have the key to life though.
So what about all the people who thousands of years ago without the benefit of science. before Christ, before who ever, just wise ass people that was like, life is much deeper than it appears to be on the surface? I've had nikkas with tats over there eyes wax poetic about how they feel life is more than it is on the surface. you don't need an IQ of 200 to feel that shyt.
The time to believe things isn't when it sounds good, but when you can prove it.
I also think what you're asserting is a fundamentally flawed answer...maybe you're not as familiar with the content we're discussing, but what you're suggestion makes very little sense.
I can be a nihilistic or as full of esoteric shyt as I want...doesn't mean any of it is real.
Applying a veneer to life doesn't remove the utter banality of it all given enough time to work through the transparency of the universe we've been granted in the last 200 years.

What's it got to do with external consciousness? Materialism would mean that external consciousness could not control brain anatomy/functioning but this seems to fly in the face of that, no? If it is truly a 1:1, one-way street then we should not be able to consciously alter our brain functioning?
If you believe in materialism then you have to believe that that hypothesis is possible via physical means. You're lil Ray Kurzweil and that's cool, don't change up now lol
I will admit that I'm not too familiar with the content but that's why I like discussing these things. No fun in discussing things I already know because I already know them. When you can prove something is when you KNOW something not when you BELIEVE it.
That's why children BELIEVE in Santa or Magic, they don't KNOW because it isn't proven/disproven to them.
What you said isn't even supported in the second half of your comment.
Intense focus doesn't mean theres an external stimuli.
not necessarily.

I'm sorry bruh, I don't need a scientist to verify shyt I believe. All I need is belief(to a certain extent) 72 virgins probably not. Hell...eh...prolly not. but to believe that life and death on this earth is all that exist, nah...Why do I have to be "smart" or a scientist to understand something that my mind and body say is true?

Belief doesn't equate to reality though so keep trying.
You can be and probably are misled by perception ALL the time...but you might be non-the-wiser to be alerted to it.
And I'm perfectly fine with that but I see you don't like discussing, just arguing. So I'll let you go on your merry way.
When did I say external stimuli, I clearly was alluding to explicit consciousness controlling brain anatomy and functioning. It shouldn't be possible if it is all material, 1:1 and linear.
and why not necessarily? If it's all physical anatomy then surely the human brain can be improved, no?
I literally don't know what you're saying.
What's so hard to understand about coming to terms with the notion that focusing on a task can cause the brain to experience uncommon events?
Just cause its physical doesn't mean you can always manipulate it to a reliable degree. You're projecting. Stop doing that.
