Lausten, When you said “…I don’t like that the mind is not aware of it being a result of activity in the brain…”, I don’t understand what you mean. What were you referencing by “it“. -- TimB
To answer that, I’d need to answer just what self-awareness is and I don’t think anyone has that answer. When I say “aware”, what do you think I’m talking about? I’m talking about the stuff that happens in the mind, thinking about what happened before now and what might happen next. That which does that thinking did not become aware of where the thinking came from just by thinking about it. It took experimentation and gathering of evidence over many years to determine it is centered in the brain. The science on that is still pretty new.
