Introducing the Mind-at-Large Project: A New Paradigm in Consciousness Research | Mind-Body Solution

The Mind-at-Large Project is a three-year, multidisciplinary initiative exploring consciousness and its role in reality. Mind-at-Large seeks to expand this paradigm - investigating the mind’s presence across scales, from quantum systems and living organisms to ecosystems and the cosmos itself. This series examines ideas such as panpsychism, pantheism, idealism, 4E cognition, animism, perspectivism, and non-human intelligence, while also engaging with extraordinary phenomenologies found in psychedelic experiences, mystical states, and anomalous consciousness.TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) – Introduction: The Mind-at-Large Project – Consciousness Beyond the Brain(02:30) – Setting the Stage: Bridging Science, Philosophy & Mysticism(06:10) – What Does “Mind-at-Large” Mean?
