Jonathan Brown welcomes returning author and concert pianist/engineer Edi Bilimoria to discuss his new book, “Consciousness Came First,” an 80,000-word root-and-branch restatement (not merely an abridgement) of his 660,000-word, four-volume “Unfolding Consciousness,” which won the 2022 Grand Prize from the Scientific and Medical Network. Edi explains the need for a more accessible volume and his central claim that consciousness is fundamental and expressed through the brain rather than produced by it, using analogies like electricity and the pianist/piano. He also critiques scientism, argues the “hard problem” can’t be solved by intellect alone, outlines levels of the human being, discusses AI as simulation without awareness, and shares views on death, terminal lucidity, and after-death states, emphasising inner treasures and spiritual evolution.
