sand:

Consciousness, like any other manifestation of life, can be reduced to a set of physical and chemical processes.

The workings of consciousness - yes, consciousness itself - no. The essence of the soul is the basis.
 
ratnasambhava:
Whether organic or inorganic is all matter (waves).
all is matter != (waves).
 
mersi:
all is matter != (waves).

Matter is emptiness. Will that do?
 
moskitman:

Question for you to ask: Who (or what) makes inorganic compounds into inorganic ones?

Complete combustion. Carbon monoxide is not in the class of organic compounds.

 
ratnasambhava:

Matter is emptiness. Will that do?

No!

A wave is not matter.

 
mersi:

No!

A wave is not matter.


Matter is a manifestation of waves. And so?
 

As an artist to an artist I will whisper:

if thought is matter, then maybe. Actually, people know as little about waves as they do about water.

 
mersi:

As an artist to an artist I will whisper:

if thought is matter, it probably is.

Right, right: first thought (light) -> then wave -> then matter.
 
ratnasambhava:
Right, right: first thought (light) -> then wave -> then matter.

The question immediately arises: What is light?

Maybe it doesn't exist at all.

We are surrounded by waves with frequencies ranging from zero to infinite hertz. Why do we only perceive the world within the extremely narrow range of these vibrations?

Is the brain playing tricks on us?

 
mersi:
The question immediately arises: What is light?


Yes, we are digging deep.

Light is information.

And in general, words are fixed ideas.
