  • A hybrid consciousness?
    Rafael Pintos-López
    Human consciousness is more than just experience. It has included thought since we became human. Cognition and humanity are the result of language. And there is nothing universal or natural about language. Language is cultural and artificial. The result is that human consciousness is a hybrid ’black swan’ phenomenon.Some of the great thinkers of the past knew this. They are bei...

  • Zen explicado
    Rafael Pintos-López

El Zen se despoja de uno de esos componentes y alcanza un estado de sabiduría extrema. Al rechazar el concepto del tiempo y el intelecto, el Zen logra una total integración con el aquí y el ahora. ¿Cómo funciona eso? Este ...

  • Zen Demystified
    Rafael Pintos-López
    The title of this book is quite clear. It is about Zen Buddhism, but explained for a Western readership. Zen is famously obscure in terms of logic, or any kind of intellectual explanation. This book attempts just that. It explains how Zen operates. It does it with words, but it does not purport to replace Zen meditation practice. It is like an introductory brochure to a practic...

  • Human Consciousness - The Impact of Language and Culture
    Rafael Pintos-López
    This book proposes that human consciousness is Cartesian dualistic, two-layered affair, that the layers are integrated but discrete, and provides the explanation that human individuals, as part of an altricial species, acquire cognition through an ongoing education and socialisation process that lasts several years. The book also proposes that time does not exist without high c...

  • On the Emergence of Human Consciousness
    Rafael Pintos-López
    The Emergence of Human Consciousness questions the current physicalist approach in neuroscience. According to the author, human consciousness includes two layers: a basic, biological one; and a social one. Any evolutionist approach to human consciousness is doomed to reach a ceiling, as it cannot account for the social layer. The emergence of human consciousness is a metaevolut...

  • Consciousness and Time - a New Approach
    Rafael Pintos-López
    The idea behind the book was that a new approach was needed to solve Chalmers’ ’hard problem’ of consciousness. The book does not provide a total solution to the problem, but it suggests a new approach that will probably help philosophy, neuroscience and quantum physics in their endeavours. Among other things, the book suggests that human consciousness is a two-tiered system, w...

  • El Mito de Adán y Eva y la Pervivencia del Cristianismo en Occidente
    Rafael Pintos-López
    Este libro sugiere que: 1) en el mito hebreo, Adán y Eva eran una pareja de homíninos, como cualquiera de los antepasados humanos que hemos descubierto últimamente; 2) los hebreos tenían una idea mucho más sofisticada y realista de la evolución de lo que se cree en la actualidad y ello explica muchos puntos de la Biblia que parecían inexplicables hasta ahora; 3) la innovación d...
