Winner of the 2012 Godbey Authors' Awards presented by the Godbey Lecture Series in Southern Methodist University's Dedman College of Humanities and Sciences Living Consciousness examines the brilliant, but now largely ignored, insights of French philosopher Henri Bergson (1859–1941). Presenting a detailed and accessible analysis of Bergson's thought, G. William Barnard highlights how Bergson's understanding of the nature of consciousness and, in particular, its relationship to the physical world remain strikingly relevant to numerous contemporary fields. These range from quantum physics and process thought to philosophy of mind, depth psychology, transpersonal theory, and religious studies. Bergson's notion of consciousness as a ceaselessly dynamic, inherently temporal substance of reality itself provides a vision that can function as a persuasive alternative to mechanistic and reductionistic understandings of consciousness and reality. Throughout the work, Barnard offers "ruminations" or neo-Bergsonian responses to a series of vitally important questions such as: What does it mean to live consciously, authentically, and attuned to our inner depths? Is there a philosophically sophisticated way to claim that the survival of consciousness after physical death is not only possible but likely?

As enthusiasm for computational models of the mind has waned and the revolution in neuroscience has progressed, attention in philosophy and cognitive science has shifted toward more biological approaches. The Living Mind establishes that mind cannot be immaterial or reduced to mechanistic or cybernetic processes, but must instead possess a subjectivity embodied in an animal organism. On this basis, the work proceeds to show why mind involves a pre-conscious psyche, a non-discursive consciousness and self-consciousness, and an intelligence overcoming the opposition of consciousness. In so doing, The Living Mind provides a detailed account of the psyche and consciousness, paving the way for conceiving the psychological enabling conditions of rational theory and practice.

The Truth movement, as we call it is the most important thing in the world today. The Truth movement, which centers in the belief in the omnipresence and availability of God, is the most important thing in the world, because it is the only thing that can save the world. Nothing else can. Everything else has been tried. People have tried building up might and power, and have used it to wreck themselves. Man has built up intellectual power; and especially since four centuries ago, since the Renaissance, education has been intellectual. People are surprised when you tell them that there is any other kind of education. Those of us who have had the advantages of a higher education know that so-called intellectual study gives very, very little help in the practical business of living. This Truth movement comes along, takes hold of people and changes them. It restores health if that has been lost, restores estate if that has been lost, restores self-respect if that has been lost. It puts people on their feet, and shows them that there is something in life worth living for.

Dr. Eben Alexander, author of international phenomenon Proof of Heaven, shares the next phase of his journey to understand the true nature of consciousness and how to cultivate a state of harmony with the universe and our higher purpose. In 2008, Dr. Eben Alexander's brain was severely damaged by a devastating case of bacterial meningitis, and he lapsed into a weeklong coma. It was almost certainly a death sentence, but he miraculously survived and brought back with him an astounding story. During those 7 days in coma, he was plunged into the deepest realms of consciousness and came to understand profound truths about the universe we inhabit. What he learned changed everything he knew about the brain, mind, and consciousness and drove him to ask a question confounding the entire scientific community: How do you explain the origins of consciousness if it is not a byproduct of the brain? His challenge relates to a revolutionary shift now underway within our modern scientific understanding. Ultimately, direct experience is key to fully understanding how we are all connected through the binding force of unconditional love and its unlimited power to heal. In Living in a Mindful Universe, the New York Times bestselling author of Proof of Heaven and The Map of Heaven shares his insights into the true nature of consciousness. Embracing his radically new worldview, he began a committed program of personal exploration into nonlocal consciousness. Along the way, he met Karen Newell, who had spent most of her lifetime living the worldview he had only just discovered was possible. Her personal knowledge came from testing various techniques and theories as part of her daily routine. With Living in a Mindful Universe, they teach you how to tap into your greater mind and the power of the heart to facilitate enhancement of healing, relationships, creativity, guidance, and more. Using various modalities related to meditation and mindfulness, you will gain the power to access that infinite source of knowing so vital to us all, ultimately enriching every facet of our lives.

There has been a growing feeling in my mind that "Health" is too small a title with which to introduce a book that sets forth the noblest science that can possibly be formulated. Although health is one of the most desirable conditions in personal life, and one of the most essential, yet it is but one of the ways of Life that are set forth in the book. It appears to me that, "From Existence to Life; the Science of Self-Consciousness" exactly covers the whole field of that which is herein formulated. It is a science for all-round use, health being but one of the many modes of the Principle of All-Knowledge; and, so far as man is concerned, the science of self-consciousness, formulated correctly, and made use of intelligently, should satisfy the mind and comfort the heart in all the emergencies of self-conscious life, enabling a man to "hold on his way and grow stronger and stronger."

Many people believe that consciousness occurs within the brain, but could this really be true? Today there is good news and bad news about this seemingly impenetrable mystery. The good news is that philosophers and scientists have identified some of the key features that make consciousness extraordinary. The bad news is that these clever conceptual breakthroughs have led to further conundrums. It has been maddeningly difficult to reconcile some recent insights about consciousness with the way science thinks about the physical universe, and this has stirred up the old mind-body debate. How could consciousness occur within the brain, or relate to the brain at all? And what's really appalling is that it's hard to make sense of consciousness in any terms whatsoever - physical or spiritual, religious or secular. Your Living Mind explains issues being hotly debated by experts who have studied consciousness in depth. If you liked Consciousness Explained by Daniel Dennett or Soul Dust by Nicholas Humphrey, or you have enjoyed readable books and articles about neuroscience, you'll enjoy Your Living Mind. It's an invigorating workout for both your intellect and your imagination. This book was written for several kinds of readers. Do any of these statements fit for you? * You want to develop a well-crafted personal philosophy of life. Understanding consciousness is part of that quest. * You want to learn about yourself, to know who and what you are. * You have been interested in the "big questions" of philosophy and psychology, and you'd like to revisit this sort of reflection. * You have already studied consciousness, and you enjoy playing with new ideas about "philosophical zombies" and other enigmas. Your Living Mind explains subtle ideas in clear and straightforward language, minimizing technical jargon. Issues are clarified with illustrations, diagrams, and specific examples. This book's unique format enables you to choose which sections you will read casually and which you will study more deeply by reading the footnotes and the clearly-marked technical sections. Drawing upon his background as a psychotherapist, the author has included a dozen exercises and techniques for personal reflection. For those who practice these techniques, Your Living Mind will become both an intellectual adventure and an exploration of the senses. Are you ready to become better acquainted with your living mind? THE AUTHOR, Dr. Roger C. Schriner is a psychotherapist and Unitarian Universalist minister who has studied consciousness for over 20 years. Your Living Mind is his sixth book. His previous publications include Bridging the God Gap: Finding Common Ground Among Believers, Atheists and Agnostics (available from Amazon) and Feel Better Now (available from personhoodpress.com). CONTENTS: The Introduction and first chapter map out the key issues this book will investigate. Chapter Two discusses intriguing new discoveries about the brain. Chapter Three considers the way our minds interweave conscious and unconscious processes. Chapters Four and Five explain why the mind-body problem is so challenging, and the next three chapters discuss attempts to solve this mystery. Dr. Schriner presents his own proposal in Chapters Nine - Fourteen, and relates this theory to our understanding of selfhood and personal freedom in Fifteen and Sixteen. Chapter Seventeen suggests additional implications, and concludes.
