I find the ongoing debate about consciousness fascinating.

Does the mind emerge from neurological activity? Or is consciousness an intrinsic aspect of reality itself?

The debate continues.

And then I came across this wonderfully peculiar image in a speech by Swami Vivekananda:

“The universe is a cobweb; minds are spiders.”
