Emotion Consists Of A Very Well Orchestrated

Rather Than Being A Luxury, Emotions Are A Very Intelligent Way Of Driving An Organism Toward Certain Outcomes.

A Self That Is Very Robust, That Has Many, Many Levels Of Organization, From Simple To Complex, And That Functions As A Sort Of Witness To What Is Going On In Our Organisms.

We Remove Ourselves From The Experience Itself To A Surrogate Of The Experience, Which Is Whatever Measure You Take From The Brain, Be It The Electroencephalogram Or Magnet Encephalography Or Say Functional Magnetic Resonance. So It's Pretty Tough To Make Those Comparisons.

But Whether We Want To Do It Because We Want To Have People To Have A Different Idea Of Who We Are Or Not, We Do It Naturally. So The Way We Construct Our Narrative Is Different From The Way We Constructed It A Year Ago. The Difference Is Maybe Very Small Or It May Be Huge.

A Mind Is So Closely Shaped By The Body And Destined To Serve It That Only One Mind Could Possibly Arise In It. No Body, Never Mind.
