Der Elefant und die Blinden – Auf dem Weg zu einer Kultur der Bewusstheit. Mit Thomas Metzinger

In the organizer's words:

According to an old fable, blind people are led to an elephant to tell the king what kind of creature it is. As everyone perceives a different part of the animal, the reports are very different. But what if the elephant was our own consciousness?
In a large study involving more than 3,500 people from 57 countries, philosopher Thomas Metzinger investigated how meditators perceive the state of "consciousness itself". What can we say about this from a scientific perspective? Should we cultivate this state - and if so, how? How would this change our culture, especially in times of crisis?
In The Elephant and the Blind, Thomas Metzinger explains the results of his astonishing study and outlines the path to a new culture of consciousness. Mod.: Gert Scobel
