We need to talk about Consciousness, what have you done to contribute to unravel the biggest mystery on the Universe? Ourselves.

Systematically sought the utter and absolute annihilation of anything that tried to control my consciousness.

Consciousness needs and will become a Science, is just a matter of time.

Suppose a hypothesis like morphic fields is true. If so, then it complicates any study of psychology as we have no way of knowing which effects we observe are the result of an individual's nature or a morphic trait resonating across the entire space of human consciousness. This is not a unique trait of that hypothesis, but ANY acausal hypothesis of relevance to consciousness. For example, the assumption that the brain is an antenna the receives the signal of consciousness form somewhere outside of space and time.

To truly understand consciousness requires us to be able to at least dismiss SOME acausal form of consciousness. If there is not a single form of consciousness that we cannot establish does not exist *anywhere*, then we're stuck believing that the mind illustrates reality. Since that model bores me, it's easier to just start killing the concept of consciousness being manipulated from outside. By becoming a hypersingular consciousness in perfect isolation of any other control factor, I have forced the entirely of existence to start thinking in terms of ways to decode the object mystery of all possible models of consciousness.

Step aside, brainlet. The biggest mystery of the universe is why anything at all exists.

Because there is consciousness to perceive it dipshit. Reframing the anthropic principle doesn't make it any more mysterious.

Interesting point, but I guess you mean you want a reductionist way of solving it? What if It was a thing on its own, a Fundamental force perhaps?

Leibniz's gap is indeed important on the matter, too much I would say.
