sound. Despite all of this technology and the thousands of en-

sharpness and clarity as the sound perceived 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

human ear never perceives a sound accompanied by a hissing
sound or with atmospherics as does a hi-fi; rather, it perceives
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 hear-
ing are concerned, 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
symphonies 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 perceives these electro-chemical nerve impulses as
