Although he was formed in the dogmatic orthodoxy, as he calls it, today he understands that this approach transformed it into heterodoxy when it comes to look at issues related to Consciousness. In this conversation with Dr. Luján Comas, among other things, he integrates elements of Physics, Neuro-phenomenology and Biology to give us an integrative look at issues such as life, matter and mind when understanding reality and evaluating the objective and the subjective. In his concept we are matter, we are emotion, we are soul, we are spirit, among other things and it is necessary to understand that not everything is said about matter.
