Sam Harris joins the Know Thyself Podcast today for a deep dive into consciousness, free will, and artificial intelligence. He explains the illusory nature of self, our daily psychosis, and why it's essential to wake up from the 'dream' of our thoughts. Sam shares how the practice of meditation can help set us free, and how to break the spell of negative emotions. • He also dives deep on the pitfalls of the spiritual path, explaining the drawbacks of non-dual thinking, emptiness in Buddhism, and why some Gurus misbehave. • Sam gives a thorough explanation into his present thesis on solving the hard problem of consciousness, explains how the concept of free will can be limiting with understanding psychopaths, and if he believes that artificial intelligence will one day become conscious. • Download André's FREE Book Recommendation List: https://www.knowthyself.one/books • https://www.wakingup.com/knowthyself for free 30 days of Waking Up App • ___________ • Timecodes: • 0:00 Intro • 2:41 The Illusion of Self and the Process of Suffering • 11:08 Our daily psychosis - Identification with thought • 16:35 The Transitory Nature of Thought and the Benefits of Meditation • 27:14 When ego is useful, and when to let go • 32:40 Breaking the Spell of Negative Emotions • 35:19 Understanding Impermanence and its Relation to Suffering • 43:31 The concept of Emptiness in Buddhism • 56:32 Pitfalls of the ‘goal’ of enlightenment • 59:11 The Duality of the Spiritual Path • 1:12:15 The Illusion of Seeking and False Beliefs in Meditation Practice • 1:14:58 How non-dual teachings got twisted • 1:17:31 Waking up vs embodiment • 1:25:21 Why spiritual teachers misbehave • 1:30:57 Sam’s Personal Pivotal Moments in the Journey of Self Inquiry • 1:44:46 The hard problem of consciousness • 2:09:24 Consciousness and Intelligence in AGI • 2:17:42 Do we really have Free will? • 2:29:57 Why Gratitude Reason Heals Us • 2:40:02 Conclusion • ___________ • Sam Harris is the author of five New York Times best sellers.
