Is consciousness real or an illusion...???

Consciousness is as real as the pain you feel when you hit your finger with a hammer; in other words, undeniably real, with 100% certainty.

Objective things might not be real because we can't possibly be 100% certain of them. Things like: The hammer that you see, the finger that you think you have, the nerves that transmit pain, and the electrical signals in your brain that comprise pain, can all potentially be simulated by a matrix simulation, hallucination, or dream state. You might be an 11-dimensional being with a brain made of anti-matter simply dreaming of the Earth, and part of your brain that actually perceives pain might be a piece of this anti-matter, rather than some electricity in your neurons. There is no physical component of pain that is sure to exist.

However, there is something you know for sure when you feel pain, and that is that you are feeling pain. It doesn't make sense to say "pain might be an illusion" or "I might only think I feel pain" because thinking you feel pain is the same as actually feeling pain. There is no room for illusion and nowhere further to go: Pain is pain.

This is the essence of consciousness, the "inexplicable yet sure feeling of being".

The gap between consciousness and the real world is the gap between what we know for sure and what we don't know for sure. Please see: Max Loh's answer to Where is our consciousness, and is it a thing that has mass/matter? in which I prove that consciousness cannot possibly be only matter and energy. I'm still waiting for someone to explain to me where my proof went logically wrong without misrepresenting my argument!

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.

I saw you don’t have a Steemit Profile Picture I made a story post to make it simply to do. https://steemit.com/steemit/@isteemithard/how-to-upload-a-profile-picture-and-or-cover-image-to-your-steemit-account

Good post...thanks.👌👍
.Follow!!😃😃

Very interesting Post! Thaks you voted me that gave me the opportunity to read this hehe! Follow you to see more quality post like this!

I agree consciousness is real. "Cognito ergo sum" - I think, therefor I am. And we are not just an accident of evolution, we are meant to be.

You might find my friend Bob Tuskin very interesting he has lots of Youtube videos he hosts the Free Your Mind conference every year.

Oh I had a question can you send me the code to put that "Upvote Follow Resteem" thing you have on the bottom of your post I'm not to great with computers and still trying to figure things out. Please and thanks
