This is my book on consciousness, it has original ideas and experiments. I'm INFJ, now 3rd year at UCSD. At birth I knew my destiny was to crack the code of consciousness.

The most important part of the book, is Chapter 4 of portion 2. There are two portions, 1st portion where I argue theres a soul, where portion 2 I argue from no soul. Chapter 4 of portion is the most important because i have developed a novel experiment that shows we as humans cannot imagine our own face in first person perspective or in geons . There are three possible explanations from it. 1. natural monist explanation, 2 Quantum explanation 3 Idealistic explanation. I'll give a brief summary for each, for 1, as my experiment proves we cannot imagine our own face, consciousness must not come from the brain and the brain doesn't understand its own existence. The mind is therefore sth different, an another matter, still yet to be discovered. It could be localized and mathematically calculated. 2, based off my experiment, this happens when neurons fire which results in nothing, we can percieve nothing. You cannot observe consciousness directly, it is not like light. There's always a gap between subjective and objective. Therefore, if it can't be observed but only felt, then it has the possibility of nothing then next I explain how a quantum model can be generated. 3. Based off the mind is nothing, it can be infered further that the mind is not independent , it is dependent. It bridges between brain and objective reality like a mirror. And in this mirror we see objective reality and our โselfโ. Since I cannot see myself in geons, yet thats how i see objects. And Since only I can understand my own reality because of my singular sense of self, this mind must be between me and reality. The thing that generates "self " and reality are different. I can understand only from how I make sense of it. Which leads to the essence of my thinking : Where is your middle ?
I hope this inspires people to produce more ideas better than mine to reach the grand truth.
