Self-Awareness (or Brahman) Is the Ultimate Black Hole

May 9, 2026 · 21 min

In this episode, we’ll discuss Self-Awareness (which is synomous with Brahman)  is the ultimate Black Hole. We will argue that black holes, in a fundamental sense, depend on Self-Awareness—and that Self-Awareness can be understood as the ultimate, or first, “black hole.” 

By comparing certain properties they share, we can explore why Self-Awareness may be meaningfully described in black-hole-like terms.

The purpose of this episode is to substantiate the connection between them. To develop this hypothesis, this episode is organized as follows:

  1. Understanding Black Holes
  2. The Connection Between Black Holes and Self-Awareness
  3. Self-Awareness: The Ultimate Black Hole

We look forward to hear back from you!
