THE EVOLUTION MISCONCEPTION
tems for sensing sound. Despite all this technology and the thousands of
engineers and experts who have been working on this endeavour, no
sound has yet been obtained that has the same sharpness and clarity as
the sound perceived by the ear. Think of the highest-quality HI-FI systems
produced by the biggest company in the music industry. Even in these de-
vices, 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 technology of the human body are ex-
tremely sharp and clear. A human ear never perceives a sound accompa-
nied by a hissing sound or with atmospherics as does HI-FI; 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 visual or recording apparatus produced by man 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 concerned, a far greater
fact lies beyond all this.
To Whom Does the Consciousness that
Sees and Hears Within the Brain Belong?
Who is it that watches an alluring world in its brain, listens to sym-
phonies and the twittering of birds, and smells the rose?
The stimulations coming from the eyes, ears, and nose of a human
being travel to the brain as electro-chemical nervous 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 about this subject: Who is it that perceives these elec-
tro-chemical nervous impulses as images, sounds, odours and sensory
events in the brain? There is a consciousness in the brain that perceives all
this without feeling any need for eye, ear, and nose. To whom does this con-
sciousness belong? There is no doubt that this consciousness does not be-
long to the nerves, the fat layer and neurons comprising the brain. This is
