"The Conscious Sun: Exploring Panpsychism's Unorthodox View"

TL;DR Summary
The unorthodox concept of panpsychism suggests that everything in the universe, including the Sun, possesses consciousness. Biologist Rupert Sheldrake argues for the consciousness of the Sun and all other stars, proposing that consciousness may be present in self-organizing systems at various levels of complexity. While this idea challenges traditional views, it raises intriguing questions about the nature of consciousness and its potential implications for celestial bodies. However, scientific and philosophical arguments continue to challenge the concept of panpsychism, emphasizing the need for extraordinary evidence to support such extraordinary claims.
