Your Brain on Philosophy

When it comes to chasing highs, transcending to new planes and getting enlightened, there are many paths. Substances and spirituality are two possible roads to this destination. But I would like to mention a third: Philosophy. The original Matrix movies showed me how unorthodox ideas can mess with our brains and since then I've continued to go down the rabbit hole. Lately I've been thinking about how a combination of Hegelian and Berkley's propositions could be combined to make an argument that the virtual world is actually more real than the physical world... More on that another day.
