Die seltsame Beziehung zwischen Gehirn und Bewusstsein, Interview mit Mark Gober, Teil 3 von 3

Where does that come from? Is the thought coming from the individual? So, an analogy I like to use is the Sun and clouds. So, the Sun being consciousness and clouds being our mental state or our brain, things that are blocking the rays of consciousness to come in. And when we do things like meditate or a near-death experience is maybe the best example where all the clouds go away. There are ways of removing clouds so that more rays of consciousness come in. But I think methods like meditation, sensory deprivation, yoga, these are ways to remove some of the clouds and then maybe we get a spark of creativity and we don't know where it came from, but it's kind of that ray of consciousness getting in.
