It is far easier to fool someone, than to convince them they have been fooled.

To what degree is Consciousness filtered, and how can we come to know this?  Is this regarding us or others?

After all these years im still deeply confuse, after watching the why the brain doesn't exist episode 

Leo claim consciousness doesn't take place inside the brain, there is no evidence 

Based on my direct experience,yes indeed it doesnt take place inside the brain, existance just somehow appear,or maybe we should say my existance itself is being manifested 

But I need some answers 

Do our brain has connection to the consciousness? 

If someone hit my skull with a hammer, i definitely gonna lost consciousness right?

It somehow contradict the idea of our existance doesn't take place in the brain 

Any expert mind share some thoughts?

It’s like we’re in a video game, and there’s a rule in the code that whenever the brain gets affected, consciousness gets affected.

So the brain is something generated by consciousness (which is existence) that affects consciousness, which isn’t so mysterious.

Another thing worth contemplating is that you probably have no proof that the brain has anything to do with consciousness. The only way you would know is if you had a brain injury and could track the loss in cognition. Otherwise it’s just a belief. 

Another point is that the idea consciousness can end is unfalsifiable. It’s actually not known, just assumed. There is no proof that consciousness will end when you die. And that might be because it doesn’t actually end, it just changes form.
 


What is this?

That's the only question
