Consciousness is not an illusion, but the way we experience it misleads our speculation about it. Just like how the feeling of earth being still led people to assume nothing other than that (that it didn’t spin). The feeling of being still exists, but it is an illusion; we are not really still. The feeling of conscious experience exists, but it is an illusion; we are not really conscious in the way we think we are.

I said it was an illusion, but I didn’t really mean that obviously. As I have said, there is something behind it. What I meant is consciousness is a deceptive phenomenon. Do you understand?
