Consciousness et. al

A non-structured dump for philosophy notes

Being conscious is not thinking, but exploring myself while thinking, feeling, doing. Is it as if I extend myself to a neutral position to experience, what is happening.

The polarities of quantity and quality seem kind of crucial to me. One goes into any more detail, the other into unifying and transforming to a whole different level.

In a single being two opposing aspects cannot exist at the exact same time. In a collective perception multiple aspects can exist concurrently.

My personal consciousness is limited to what I experience. But there’s a collective consciousness where every thought, idea and feeling is stored.

Consciousness is abstract.

It has no definition, that matters, yet.

The brain can virtually represent what the human embodies.
