I hope this can help, I am currently explaining the math on the FOAR

Hi JACK SARFATTI


Consciousness = subject + object = subjective world + objective world

Nice physics, very erudite, but If there's no subject, then
there's no consciousness.  But if you include a subject, the  
consciousness

problem is trivial. You don't to keep having conferences about the
mystery of consciousness. It's only a mystery if you have lweft the
subject out of the picture.

Like it or not , Idealism is the only philosophy that takes mind  
seriously,

and Leibniz was the only philosopher to rationally solve
the mind/body problem. It's only the hard problem
if, like Chalmers, you are a meterialist and
subjectivity is not in your vocabulary.
