Imagine yourself that aliens visit Earth.
The first thing they do is ask us for our model of the Universe.
You give them a nice picture of 'the Universe' and the mathematical language of science to explain it.
Your mathematical language is wordsalad to them.. Gibberish.
So, you need to translate these meaningless symbols (meaningless to them) in their language.
Of course: they see the structure of logic in it and can translate it to their symbols.
You see that their equations are shorter. Very short, actually.
You thought that math was 'universal'. No, they don't understand one bit of it.
The second thing they ask is:
"where are you in your model of Nature?"
"Show 'us' in your model?"
You can't. You don't know what this alien means and you try to explain that 'consciousness' or 'awareness' is gibberish for your scientists. It's wordsalad for physicists.
They throw away your little model of the Universe and they say: "useless". and you don't know why.
Why are aliens throwing away my mathematical model of Nature? you ask yourself.
Because you are part of Nature and you have not even a descent language to describe yourself in your own model.
You know that consciousness exists, but do you know that 'because you followed the math'?
Do you know that 'dreams' exist, because you have some sort of LUX-detector for dreams?
No, you didn't. You only know that you exist in this world, because:
You experience, therefore you are.
Experience, ergo sum.
There is no computer or detector who can discover you in this world.
You are invisible for every measuring device.
You cannot be deduced, based on the study of nerv-systems alone with a detector, without a mind.
The tools of science and physics are limited to describe the whole Nature of reality. Does it mean that 'consciousness' or 'awareness' can't exist, because physicists don't have the language nor the tools to describe it?
Consciousness or awareness is part of nature and it has a lawful connection with the other laws of Nature. It must have such connection, because we are part of Nature. But our scientific tools for knowledge and the mathematical language are poor tools in order to describe this part of Nature.
There is no way we can discover such thing in nature with the sciences.
But, even when you did not follow 'the math' or used a detector to know that 'images in your mind' are part of Nature, you are more certain about the existence of your mind than you are certain about the existence of dark matter and dark energy.
