Wherein Andrés, Roger, and I discuss indirect realism about perception, the construction of phenomenal time, qualia formalism, exotic phenomenal spacetime in psychedelic and meditative phenomenology, the effects of persistent subject-object nonduality on phenomenal spacetime and hedonic valence, and more! Enjoy!

Form is like a glob of foam; feeling, a bubble; perception, a mirage; fabrications, a banana tree; consciousness, a magic trick... However you observe them, appropriately examine them, they’re empty, void to whoever sees them appropriately... No substance here is found. - Pheṇa Sutta  (SN 22:95): https://www.dhammatalks.org/suttas/SN/SN22_95.html
