Section 1: Introduction
In my first dissertation on the nature of consciousness, I admitted that I did not know what the nature of consciousness was. From basic logic and simple reasoning, I formed one or two deductions that would be admitted by all educated people -- but from there on, I asked questions about the nature of consciousness, that I could not answer, and of those few suggested answers I've heard, I was dissatisfied with them. The thoughts on the nature of consciousness entered my mind from time to time, initiating new thoughts and creating new ideas. When we are dealing with something like consciousness, I am sometimes prone to believe that we are not able of knowing the truth now -- that, at our current time, we cannot know.
