Thought 546: Two Definitions of Consciousness


(1)

'The ability of a being to recognise patterns 
and meaning with respect to events taking place, 
both within oneself and in the external realm 
in which the self exists and operates.'

—Mark Passio,
What On Earth 
Is Happening

(2)

'That which we are tuned 
into and which attunes us.'

—Tom Romer,
