ABSTRACT
This chapter provides a brief introduction to panpsychism, followed by a thought experiment. It is followed by a short discussion and then a series of questions. Mind is a fundamental kind, and that it is to be found throughout the Universe. The panpsychism is treated as the view that every object that exists is mental, or intrinsically conscious. This is explained in the thought experiment which presents a case where a girl named Marsha believes that she has a mind. But she takes the view that rocks do not. The questions are intended to get the philosophy students thinking about the problems. They have used these kinds of questions in seminars as the questions set for seminars, so they also think that they can be used to spark conversation and discussion. The chapter also gives a cursory sketch of some of the ways in which philosophers have responded to the thought experiment.
