What's your take on consciousness?

The reason I ask this is because I recently came to the conclusion that what most people consider consciousness is basically the soul. Some sort of undefinable thing that can be trait humans have that other things dont

Don't you have a dick to suck @Christopher Hitchens ?

My take on consciousness is that I prefer to be unconscious.

Naw, I moved that appointment a bit later for you. Remember?

So you're admitting you're Chris. Great.

We've made some progress.

You should change your writting skills, because you're repeating the same patterns.

I think consciousness has to be a spiritual phenomena. I just don't believe a 3 pound lump of meet can be self-aware.

It’s more than just meat MT. It’s the most specialized organ in the body with chemical reactions, electrical activity and almost 90 billion neurons

True consciousness is becoming aware of the fact you are the listener, not your mind’s voice.

Allowing feeling and emotions, without giving them a name or blaming them on something or someone else.

Being totally aware of the present moment, without projecting into the past or future.

Also, simultaneously being aware of the fact you are a worthy part of the universe like everything else in existence.

Becoming conscious keeps me sober, happy, rarely stressed and able to fit in with all of you nutters 😂.

Pshh, naww, I misunderstood your point

How would you feel if the electrical signals in certain parts of our brain lit up in the exact same way as transformers when they do certain things?

I don't know what your intent was, but reading that made my three pound clump of meat hurt.

"without projecting into the past or future" - This remains my greatest illness and character defect despite my sobriety

Retarded like you. Transformers only light up when they explode.

In spirituality, consciousness is the fundamental awareness that pervades all existence, often viewed as a universal, unifying force. It is seen as a deeper awareness of self, not just the ego, but as a spiritual entity connected to everything else. Spiritual paths aim to cultivate this awareness through practices like meditation, leading to experiences of unity and heightened perception beyond the everyday.

The universe doesn't think or know anything about itself but for what the minds of the creatures born of its elemental structures can comprehend and ascertain. In short the human is the only part of the universe that can try to understand why it exists.

Our brains are nothing but very advanced computers that we dont know how to fully operate. Just look at how AI gets more and more humanlike in its behavior everyday.
