Course Description
Now is the time to think scientifically about consciousness (and its relationship, if any to the hypothetical immortal soul) and, most important of all, the time to start the experimental study of consciousness in a serious deliberate way..
— Francis Crick
Consciousness or being conscious is part of our everyday life, every minute. We know we have consciousness but we do not know about it – What is it? From where it arises or is it itself a fundamental aspect of reality? Consciousness is a mystery for all of us even after decades of advancement in natural sciences and medical field.
During this online course you will learn about – the amazing history, issues and questions, and possible hints about what is consciousness; how the developments of modern science itself gave indications about the existence of consciousness; ongoing research into consciousness and unconsciousness; how philosophers, scientists and renowned thinkers such as Rene Descartes, Erwin Schrodinger, Werner Heisenberg, Stephen Hawking, von Neumann, Eugene Wigner, and many others including Western and Eastern stalwarts posed questions that are still taxing scientists today. You’ll also learn how the modern tools of neuroscience are bringing us closer than ever before to further deepen the mystery of consciousness even given all advanced tools at our hand. Remain conscious while you take this soul-stirring course on the Introduction of Mystery of Consciousness from people involved in it from over many decades!
