Looks like Consciousness science has brought us a full circle, and now we are beginning to think that consciousness isn’t the exclusive property of humans. Animals, plants and inanimate objects too can be conscious on different levels…

…Ursula von der Leyen, the president of the EU Commission, wrote: “Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone.”

She never writes such words about the Palestinian people. Must be an European thing.

The fascinating observations from studying feral children show that the development of the “Self” is incomplete in them.

Though the Self and our consciousness aren’t the same, they are proxies. We wouldn’t consider the feral children to be as conscious as us, even though there is consciousness.
