Seriously great find, mk. The author did a really good job, intentionally or not, of walking along the edges of philosophy without ever straying from his intended topic and getting lost in the woods.

That said, I think our brain is so complex that there will never be a way to completely explain it, at least in any understandable way.

I know this is just semantics - but I think it sounds so interesting that one of the things that makes us human is self awareness... but the thing that is aware... isn’t able to understand why it is aware. This gives me a lot to think about.
