I would add to it the Conservation of Consciousness.<br><br>What good are all the toys in the world if there is no one to play with them? Much like there can be no light without dark, I do not believe matter can "be" without awareness.<br><br>I would love to hear this idea mentioned in a future conversation. Thank you for the mind nourishment that it is very difficult to find these days.,(reply>), @MR FLIBBLE <br><br>Almost like a separate reality sprung a leak and is providing the raw stuff of our universe. Through a black hole or something. That is a big idea to wrap my head around.<br><br>Does it make a fundamental difference where consciousness is concerned though? Either the thing that I think of as the self inhabits my body like a soul, or it arises from a certain level of complexity of matter.<br><br>Can life be created from dead matter? Can a being be made from non-living matter that can have awareness?<br><br>Thanks for the new info and big idea to mull over.
