Miller anon?
I am currently reading Memoirs of Hadrian, really enjoying it so far.
If we write to take this fictional account a real one for a moment, one could say the guy was almost as stoic as Marcus Aurelius.

In the first chapter of Meditations , Aurelius did thank Hadrian for being a good role model for him among other things.

I'll post the passage when I get the chance.

Unironically pic related. I know some schizo is copypaste-spamming it nonstop, but it honestly presents a surprisingly compelling argument for the supernatural that I would like to hear more people's thoughts on, rather than their predicable knee-jerk reaction to it without having read it.

Summary:

In the psychedelic state, brain activity ONLY decreases massively, while the richness of experience ONLY increases massively.

This evidence contradicts the idea that the brain activity generates consciousness since the materialist hypothesis predicts that increases in the richness of experience MUST BE accompanied by increases in material brain activity somewhere.

Why does materialism necessarily predict this? Well, in materialism, the brain is the material object supposedly generating my experience; you can not have increases in the richness of experience without some increase in brain activity somewhere to explain it.

Thus, materialism has been empirically falsified along with the material brain generating consciousness.

If you are someone who has understood what I've said, you will ask "so what is the brain then?"

Idealists would say that the brain is just what your inner experience looks like from another conscious perspective: an mental icon representing your mental activity from another mind's perspective. It doesn't do anything, and there are no materials nor the hard problem of consciousness. That's because everything is consciousness in this view.
