That's a bit like part of bicameral theory which says the learning of the word 'self' and its meaning initiated a chain of thoughts that culminated in the transformation of a non conscious bicameral mind into a self who is conscious. Easy to imagine that the one who invented the word, 'self' and its meaning was the first human being to become conscious. Also easy to imagine how the concept must have spread like a virus. According to the theory it took a thousand years for the virus to transform the entire known world. Jesus was born at the end of that thousand year transiliation. Why a boat load of conquistadors was able to instantly defeat a nation of two million Aztec warriors is transparently easily explained by the bicameral theory. The Aztecs were bicameral people. Becoming a self and conscious carries with it self interest and the ability to lie and cheat and steal and that's exactly what the conquistadors did. Have you seen "The Invention of Lying" film by Ricky Gervais? It gives a pretty good approximation of what a bicameral mind may have been like.
The other important aspect of synapses is... synapses enable the discharge-timing-patterns of upstream neurons to modulate the discharge-timing-patterns of downstream neurons. (And of course loops can form to accomplish a variety of purposes, the timing of events for instance). Since neural-discharge-timing-patterns are the means by which brains encode representations, we can clearly see that synapses are the means by which representations intermodulate in the process we call thinking. Since one of the representations maintained by brains is what we refer to as 'the self', we can clearly see that the modulation of the self by other representations is the physical side of what we mean by the word 'conscious'. After all, it is my self who is conscious (which is the only thing my self knows with absolute certainty (à la Descartes)). This is closely analogous to the relationship between the physical existence of this very sentence and its brain context dependent meaning of which your self will have become conscious by the time you reach its end.

I exist, and to know that you exist you have to be conscious that you exist, it is this knowing that you "be" or "am" that is the self because to be aware is to be self-aware.

@@evaadam3635 respectfully, can you speak plainly? I am genuinely curious. What does the activity of guiding lost souls afford you? In short, why is this pursuit meaningful to you? Let’s ignore the lost souls for the moment.
@@asyetundeterminedfor sincere faithfuls like me, it is our moral duty to help lost souls find the right way home for love of God who loves all His children including the lost ones.. God wants all His lost children to return home through faith... If I am an atheist, why would I believe that we are all children of God for me to love and to care ... I would probably only care for myself and my own family, or not even care for my own family but care only for my own selfish self... or not even care for myself if I turn into a Godless evil self-destructive psychopath, etc etc etc... could be just like you..
@@evaadam3635 you speak around yourself, but not about yourself. “What god wants”, “what if I were like you?” (extra points for being needlessly insulting here). You claim to be faithful.

Mindblowing
Makes me think of the phrase, "a self-fulfilling prophecy", where one 'tells oneself' something, and the Self believes it to be the case.
That's a bit like part of bicameral theory which says
the learning of the word 'self' and its meaning
initiated a chain of thoughts that culminated in
the transformation of a non conscious bicameral mind
into a self who is conscious.
Easy to imagine that the one who invented the word, 'self'
and its meaning was the first human being to become conscious.
Also easy to imagine how the concept must have spread like a virus.
According to the theory it took a thousand years for the virus
to transform the entire known world.
Jesus was born at the end of that thousand year transiliation.
Why a boat load of conquistadors was able to
instantly defeat a nation of two million Aztec warriors
is transparently easily explained by the bicameral theory.
The Aztecs were bicameral people.
Becoming a self and conscious carries with it
self interest and the ability to lie and cheat and steal
and that's exactly what the conquistadors did.
Have you seen "The Invention of Lying" film by Ricky Gervais?
It gives a pretty good approximation of
what a bicameral mind may have been like.

While all this is happening, the mind is like a third-party witness. Who is in charge?

Not necessarily at all. They’re all just the very complex firing synapses in the brain.
