RE: Is consciousness real or an illusion...???
The whole Universe is Electromagnetism: Electricity and Energy - that is mechanic; dynamic and existence of Consciousness at various dimensional bandwidths; frequency and and wavelength. The Owner, Creator and Source of Consciouness is inferred as "God" without beginning or end. It is existentially self programmed; inter reacted and consequentially self continual by way of positive and negative polarity that formulate: Gas: Liquid: Matters from single atom of hydrogen with Proton; Electron and Neutron then form molecule of compounds. The elementary existence of recognition of each other: by reading each other "Code" create basic identity of Information and knowledge: The cognitive capability of inter reactive reading; mutual programming and progressive expansion of Harmonic Codes into a Cyclical function that spark up "Signals" with interpretation; translation and understanding the "Meaning" of each "Code" into "Word" or "Audio" and "Video" that invented into formation of "Devices" to Transmit and Receive magnetic; electrical and energy signals... like Brain; Radio; Television; Modbile and Computer... into Five Senses - Holographic representation: We call it Awareness with "Consciouness" From Void the existence evolved from Electromagnetic-Electrical- Energetic Thermal forms to Elementary Forms of Gas-Liquid-Matter Forms then into realization of Life Forces as Quantum Physics: Chemical and Biological transformation that brought forth "Senses" we propose as "Consciousness" that is Godliness in US! The awareness of being alive.... appreciate and comprehend our formation and existence!
The signals received by our "Brains" can be an "illusive" visualization or imagination in the form of feelings; thoughts and facts. Such consciouness can be identified with scientific verification and justification as facts; Data of representation or even can be proven functional consistency as hypothesis; theory; Universal Laws; even to be Canonize as "Truth"... Thus, all information, Knowledge or Data flowing through our "Receptors" like Brains, Telescopic Receivers, or Electronic Invented Equipment to processed "Data" can be graded as "Illusions" or "Reality" to be proven as "Truth" as if the existence of "Consciouness" is of GOD! That is GOD..not an illusive fairy tale...! Man existence is to self realize his own existential creation into GOD image - in reality GOD is creating HIMSELF into every Human Being! The problem is factually illusive when Man fails to have faith to believe Himself being GOD but chooses to recognize himself as "Monkey" that is painfully illusive. The Truth share set us "Free" from illusion... Somebody, says he is the Truth; the Ways, the Light and Life... nobody can go to the GOD without HIM... Just receive and accept Jesus by faith - Consciousness will be real. Amen!
Awareness with "Consciousness" indeed.
