Part 6/9:
The inquiry into the nature of consciousness is described as a gradual process that unfolds over many years. There was no singular moment of realization; instead, it was a compilation of experiences leading to the understanding of one's consciousness as the core of identity, separate from the physical body, which is viewed as a computed avatar in this framework.
This understanding resembles a jigsaw puzzle where solving one piece leads to clarity on another, gradually filling out the entire picture. This intricate process involves reconciling the paradoxes inherent in physical existence with intuitive insights gleaned from deeper explorations of consciousness.
