The recognition of higher states of consciousness is a recurring theme that is evident in all cultures throughout history.
What is the basis of our conscious experience—the cycle of waking, dreaming, and sleeping?
The simplest state of awareness is a self-referral state. It is a field of all possibilities.
As the physicist Eddington said, ”The stuff of the world is mind stuff.” The ancient Yoga Vasistha likewise teaches that this world appears material, but is ultimately pure consciousness.
These profound insights infer that consciousness is all there is, and we are not in the world; the world is within us.
Welcome to Simplest State where we examine these understandings and explore the very nature of consciousness and self-realization.

James Hoggan - Best-selling author, climate activist, and advocate of ethics in public discourse
A fascinating discussion with James Hoggan, author of I'm Right and You're an Idiot - The Toxic State of Public Discourse and How to Clean it Up.
Hoggan recalls his meeting with the Dalai Lama, and how the esteemed Buddhist monk, Thích Nhất Hạnh, taught him about compassionate listening and the inner ecology, advising James to, "Speak the truth, but not to punish."
This lively exchange touches on many timely subjects, including tribalism in public discourse, propaganda, and the growth of unreasonableness. Hoggan relates how the inner work on one's character and consciousness is necessary to effectively participate in social and political processes.
