Is There a Difference Between Self Awareness and Consciousness?
i'm much more comfortable with the idea of studying self-awareness as opposed to consciousness because that sort of gets rid of the mystical aura of the thing. i think understanding those and gradually building up a kind of profound ability to conceptualize different levels of self- awareness will illuminate the questions about consciousness in a way that you know scratching your chin and talking about qualia is never going to do well.
