This book offers an uncompromising and unapologetic
phenomenological study of altered states of consciousness in an
attempt to understand the structure of human consciousness. Drawing
on the philosophy of Merleau-Ponty, it sets out to decipher the
inextricable link between consciousness, body, and world. This link
will be established through the presentation of in-depth
phenomenological research conducted with former prisoners of war
(POWs) and senior meditators. Focusing on two such disparate groups
improves our understanding of the nature of the subjective
experience in extreme situations - when our sense of boundary is
rigid and we are disconnected both from the body and the world
(POWs); and when our sense of boundary is fluid and we feel unified
with the world (meditators). Based on empirical-phenomenological
research, this book will explain how the body that is from the
outset thrown into the intersubjective world shapes the structure
of consciousness.
