Fexl | What If Consciousness Doesn't Need A Brain?

If the brain is just a structure, just a tool, then maybe your sense of self is not inside it, but only passing through it. Like a light shining through glass.

Change the shape of the glass, and the light looks different. But the source hasn’t moved.


Maybe “you” are the source.


Or maybe you’re not even separate from it at all. Maybe what you think of as yourself is just one ripple in something much larger something that doesn’t need a face, or a name, or even a form. Something that appears, watches, disappears, and shows up again somewhere else.


We just know that for now, something is looking through your eyes. Hearing your thoughts. Sitting quietly in the background of every moment. And that something might not be where you think it is.
