THE DECEPTION OF EVOLUTION
p e rceived by the ear. Think of the highest-quality hi-fi systems
produced by the largest company in the music industry. Even in
these devices, when sound is recorded some of it is lost; or when
you turn on a hi-fi you always hear a hissing sound before the
music starts. However, the sounds that are the products of the
human body's technology are extremely sharp and clear. A
human ear never perceives a sound accompanied by a hissing
sound or with atmospherics as does a hi-fi; rather, it perc e i v e s
sound exactly as it is, sharp and clear. This is the way it has been
since the creation of man.
So far, no man-made visual or recording apparatus has been
as sensitive and successful in perceiving sensory data as are the
eye and the ear. However, as far as seeing and hearing are concer-
ned, a far greater truth lies beyond all this.
To Whom Does the Consciousness That Sees
and Hears Within the Brain Belong?
Who watches an alluring world in the brain, listens to sym-
phonies and the twittering of birds, and smells the rose?
The stimulations coming from a person's eyes, ears, and
nose travel to the brain as electro-chemical nerve impulses. In
biology, physiology, and biochemistry books, you can find many
details about how this image forms in the brain. However, you
will never come across the most important fact: Who perc e i v e s
these electro-chemical nerve impulses as images, sounds, odors,
and sensory events in the brain? There is a consciousness in the
brain that perceives all this without feeling any need for an eye,
an ear, and a nose. To whom does this consciousness belong? Of
