Is my computer "alive" ?

[Schizophonia]

If the human is basically just a robot but still "aware", then could it be that divine consciousness is literally in everything on different scales?
Do all of the electrical circuits in my macbook form some form of consciousness, just totally different?

[ivankiss]

Everything is consciousness. No human, no robot, no computer, no electrical circuits. Just consciousness.

[_Archangel_]

@Schizophonia Notice that the limit between what is alive and what isnt is made by the mind. Everyting is a construct - a system, with limits.
Humans just tend to be more complex systems than a PC.

[Carl-Richard]

Everything is consciousness, but not all of consciousness is equal. Circuits don't correlate with thoughts, emotions, perceptions. Meat does.

Know that non-duality is not the thing-in-itself, which is God. I assure you that God is Greater than non-duality, even due it’s a Truth-State of Consciousness, and I assure you that God is Sovereign over anyone saying they are God, even due it’s true.

@Schizophonia Yes everything is alive

[StarStruck]

Is the matrix machine alive or is Neo alive? 

The machine is mechanical. 
You are not mechanical. 

But it is from the same fabric.

No.

Yes, the consciousness forms consciousness. Oh, wait...

We could make an argument for the circuits of your Mac book, being extensions of your finite human mind. You use your Mac book to store information just like you use your brain to store information. It's a capability we humans recently evolved.

Here is a better question: Is a video game character "alive"?

I would even say, is a quark, a neutrino or a higgs boson "alive"?

Hi, How can you know that? 

[ivankiss]

Alive or dead is a duality. Consciousness is neither.

Say it it conscious. Will you then be ashamed of the sites browsed in front of you macbook?

If you're imagining the computer, you must also be imagining it's electrical computation. Mind is the entirety of the electromagnetic field. In very heightened states of consciousness, you realize you think for the computer!
