00:00You can't define consciousness, you can't, you know what it is, right, we all do, but if you try to actually define it, you will fail, and I will prove it, so go ahead, try to define consciousness, I dare you, go ahead, put your definition in the comments, let's see how good you can do, okay, so, we all have our own ideas of what consciousness is, you know, it's that thing that we're having right now, it's this video, right?
00:24But if you try to put that into words, into a definition, you will fail, because as soon as you start trying to define consciousness, you are no longer conscious, you are thinking about something, you are analyzing something, you are judging something, you are categorizing something, and in doing so, you are altering it, and the moment you alter it, you are no longer dealing with consciousness, you are dealing with a thought, you are dealing with an idea, you are dealing with a memory, you are dealing with a brain state, you are no longer dealing with consciousness,
00:54consciousness, so we know the meaning of consciousness so long as no one asks us to define it, the
00:59moment someone asks us to define it, we lose it.
