So, I'm saying the mirror neuron system underlies the interface allowing you to rethink about issues like consciousness, representation of self, what separates you from other human beings, what allows you to empathize with other human beings, and also even things like the emergence of culture and civilization, which is unique to human beings.

The second step follows the first step.

This is a dolphin that is self aware.

You assume too much.

Only the wealth of our minds is, not the very fact that we have a self that we can refer to our own existence, and that we have any sense of person.

So in order to have a conscious mind, you have a self within the conscious mind.

Monsters from the subconscious.

And thought he just blacked out.
