I don't disagree
but it doesn't address the basic phenomenon or quality of consciousness
A ball kicked doesn't return to you until a wall it hits reverses its motion. Did the ball have its will to continue forward resisted by the wall? Rather than that, the ball is constantly reacting to its environment, and in the same sense, your senses are constant receivers of stimulus.
it makes more sense to me to consider our configurations
like prisms
or lenses
which focus undifferentiated consciousness
"<hella_pitted> what you guys call order is merely abstract patterns we invent out of representions." Why could we represent?
Why isn't that an impossible task?
In truth we had found the key
But its application would unravel this mystery
Why could we pattern*
Consciousness can't be fundamental like that
what is there to be conscious of
itself
undifferentiated consciousness would be conscious of itself, its consciousness
its existence
But you never experience consciousness
the closest we get to experiencing consciousness is sleep
IF ONLY THEY COULD UNDERSTAND HARDANGERVIDDA LIKE ME
You're not conscious during sleep but you exist
it would explain the use of the term "woke"
which is kind of a neat parallel to draw between inarticulate people who are trying to explain some phenomenon
Are they parts of one greater thing, or is will a subset of consciousness?
but being woke means being overly conscionable
Plants aren't conscious but experience a world of represention somewhat the same as we do but their actions are nonetheless guided
star fish too if you want something else as an example
Obviously at face value, consciousness is a gradient of something else
The key insight here is underneath all of it is that sort of "guiding" drive
that's within everything, even inert matter
"inert" "matter"
@Nester no nester will is not a subset of consciousness, consciousness is a gradient of will
If not invoking the soul, biology is singularly shaping of consciousness. We'd perceive differently as to us having different bodies(and brains).
i just want to lift weights and do SARMs with pete steele
I don't know what you're saying when you don't talk about metal
Impenetrable nesterisms
What explains different perceptions?
