| Omschrijving: | This paper highlights the importance of the subject in consciousness studies. It begins with the “hard problem” of the mind-body nexus according to David Chalmers, Thomas Nagel and Colin McGinn. Materialism and dualism are portrayed in contrast with Buddhist ontology, followed by a brief description of Francisco Varela’s neurophenomenology. Finally, Buddhist meditation is presented as a valid introspective method that vindicates the role of the subject in consciousness studies. |
