Consciousness: Humans
built 655 days ago
[One] kind of strategy that has been used to deny animal consciousness is to focus on certain similarities between animal behaviors and behaviors which may be conducted unconsciously by humans. Thus, for example, Carruthers (1989, 1992) argued that all animal behavior can be assimilated to the non-conscious activities of humans, such as driving while distracted (“on autopilot”), or to the capacities of “blindsight”patients whose damage to visual cortex leaves them phenomenologically blind in a portion of their visual fields (a “scotoma”) but nonetheless able to identify things presented to the scotoma.

Considering the overall level of consciousness of mankind is currently at 205 (as per Dr. Hawkins, August 2006), Nadama’s body of work at Malimba records benefits the entire population of humanity. To be specific, by Nadama being fully who he is, and expressing himself in this way, approximately 96% of the population of humanity benefits from his records/albums/CD’s = by virtue of the power of the field of consciousness that is being expressed.

The numbers on the scale represent logarithmic calibrations (measurable vibratory frequencies on a scale which increases to the tenth power) of the levels of human consciousness and its corresponding level of reality. The numbers themselves are arbitrary; the significance lies in the relationship of one number (or level) to another (e.g., Dr. Hawkins’ scale is from 1 to 1000; a similar scale could be devised from 1 to 10 where 2 is courage and 5 is love).

Recall the Cartesian argument from the previous section against animal consciousness (or animal mind) on the grounds that animals do not use language conversationally or reason generally. This argument, based on the alleged failure of animals to display certain intellectual capacities, is illustrative of a general pattern of using certain dissimilarities between animals and humans to argue that animals lack consciousness.

While there are cases where ordinary EEG fails as an index of consciousness, in the great majority of human beings it is a very useful index. Better brain indices are constantly being tested.
