Summary

A revisit to a classic early 2021 interview on the nature of reality that has prompted many to question, well, EVERYTHING. Here's the full video, transcript, and more. Bernardo Kastrup is the executive director of Essentia Foundation. His work has been leading the modern renaissance of metaphysical idealism, the notion that reality is essentially mental. He has a Ph.D. in philosophy (ontology, philosophy of mind) and another Ph.D. in computer engineering (reconfigurable computing, artificial intelligence). As a scientist, Bernardo has worked for the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) and the Philips Research Laboratories (where the ‘Casimir Effect‘ of Quantum Field Theory was discovered). Formulated in detail in many academic papers and books, his ideas have been featured on Scientific American, the Institute of Art and Ideas, the Blog of the American Philosophical Association and Big Think, among others. Bernardo’s most recent book is The Idea of the World: A multi-disciplinary argument for the mental nature of reality.

0:27.6	and this interview with Dr. Bernardo Castro
0:30.9	was really significant on YouTube.
0:33.8	Many people have emailed me saying,
0:35.4	this was their gateway drug to expanding the possibilities
0:39.9	of what reality might be for them,
0:41.7	and that led them down a rabbit hole
0:43.6	to pursue things like awakening or the nature of reality.
0:46.3	And that along with Donald Hoffman's interview,
0:48.7	there are a couple that go together
0:50.8	in that they questioned our fundamental Western enlightenment
0:54.5	assumption about the nature of reality.
0:56.1	That is that it's all dead inert matter
0:59.3	that somehow miraculously spins up consciousness
