William James on the Features of Mystical Experiences
Dr. David Peña-Guzmán, Philosophy professor and co-host of the Overthink podcast, discusses psychologist and philosopher William James and his account of mystical experience from his book The Varieties of Religious Experience. In the fourth video in our new series of video lectures on mind, consciousness, and self, David outlines the four features of mystical experience that James describes and discusses how James' account is relevant to contemporary work in philosophy of mind, particularly for research on psychedelics and altered states of consciousness.
