For this second talk, I will expand upon the what, how, and why of consciousness as a legitimate layer of our universe—a system often overlooked because it eludes traditional experimental measurement. EVERYTHING I work on will build upon this foundational layer. Together, we’ll explore definitions of consciousness and its implications, blending science, ancient wisdom, and the recognition of the "inner" experience as a vital environment of causality. We will address questions like: 1. What is the consciousness layer of the cosmos, and how does it connect to Shiv Tattvas (Tantric principles of reality)? 2. Why is this layer often dismissed as "subjective"? What frameworks can validate it scientifically? 3. How does the spectrum of consciousness extend beyond human experience? 4. What is the role of qualia (subjective experiences) in understanding universal consciousness? 5. Why should consciousness be recognized as a legitimate cosmic layer? 6. Can the consciousness layer exhibit behaviors analogous to quantum phenomena?
