Also consider the sense of distance. The empty space between you

and this page is only a sense of emptiness formed in your brain. Objects
that appear distant in your view also exist in the brain. For instance,
someone watching the stars at night assumes that they are millions of
light-years away, yet the stars are within himself, in his vision center.

But in this place of complete darkness occur millions of color

So how does this happen?
What makes you perceive light in a location without light, odors
in a place without smell, sounds in total silence and the objects of all
other senses? Who created all of this for you?
In every moment of your life, a variety of miracles take place. As
mentioned earlier, anything your senses can detect in this room you're
in, are sent as electrical signals to your brain, where they then combine.
Your brain interprets them as a view of a room. Put another way, while
you assume that you are sitting in this room, that room is actually in-
side you, in your brain. The "place" where the room is assembled and
perceived is small, dark, and soundless. And yet a whole room or a
