Pure projection.

all this fuss about consciousness is ridiculous. some people say its one of the greatest problem in the world.
well, let me tell you why its not.
we often associate consciousness with the present moment, since it seems that, for us human, it is all we know. the present moment is nothing else but the "act of living" and it is experience by everything that lives.
obviously, every creatures experience life in its own way with its own senses and capacities, but it doesnt mean that the act of living of the human is anymore real than the act of living of a cow.
so now you might ask about the fuss of what is so different about human beings.
rationality, is a tool derived from a complex brain which has been very useful to humans. it makes him map things out in the real world and understand systems like: if i press this button, the light will open. the human can understand a whole lot using rationality, but he will always be limited to a superficial layer of reality, which is also only available by his limited senses.
understanding the weakness of rationality, the human should give it less importance and focus on what is really important : the truth of living, which is determined as doing what the man absolutely must do in the realest of way.
thank you
