We go by physical boundaries and think reality is discrete. Would you trust your eyes or your brain? Sense organs cannot perceive all. What about consciousness? It needs a brain to perceive. So isnt the reality perceived by brain something beyond what sense organs or any physical measuring instruments can perceive or measure? Consciousness also points out to the fact that perception is unified at higher level . So the reality is also unified.
The perception of the sense organs is contained in the perception of brain and not vice versa. In principle we can measure and perceive anything that is physical. If something is not measurable or perceivable by sense organs or instruments it is not physical. Is there any physical instrument that can grasp the totality of consciousness? We are no where even when it comes to making even a supercomputer understand the totality of a simple sentence. So why talk about making a machine understand consciousness in its totality? btw, even among people, there are the truly analytical ones whose minds work only like that of a computer.
So my conjecture in a logical way is, consciousness points to a non physical reality which is a unification of all the discrete physical entities. Our ancestors have said much farther saying that there is a spiritual reality too and in some great mind boggling detail but I will just stop here and let readers give their views on a drop of what would be a gigantic ocean of spiritual knowledge that emerged from our land.
