Edit, I feel this thread has reached a threshold, it's been TUBAR, Trolled Up Beyond All Recognition. Please delete this thread, or lock it and move it to the rabbit hole. When I was a child I was told, you can't see your own brain. What if that was a lie? What if the ONLY thing you can see is your own brain? J. Krishnamurti said The Observer is The Observed, the experiencer is the experience, the thinker is the thought. What if what we see around us is energy and information being exchanged inside the neural networks of our brain? What if these neural networks were arranged such that they observed themself? The idea of Cartesian theater there is a little man or homunculus which is watching a screen and projector of the world outside the skull. What if brain's job was to create a holographic experience, a useful fiction to help us navigate reality, and then be aware of that experience? An energetic and informatic feedback loop. In essence when you think you are looking at a computer screen, you are looking at the inside of your own mind. The map is not the territory, and a painting of a pipe is not a pipe. It's an abstraction.
