The nature of “Consciousness”

The nature of “Consciousness” may be that it is “the ordering of chaos”.

A clue is found in the knowledge that nature is comprised of paired dualities. The opposite of consciousness is chaos so it makes sense that they are related.

This would be in line with the fact that the observation by a conscious entity collapses the cloud of possibilities in the wave vs particle situation commonly referred to in observations of light. (as explained by quantum mechanics). Pre observation it is impossible to tell whether the smallest of light at a particular location will be a particle or a wave.

If the ordering of chaos becomes self replicating it becomes life. Self-consciousness could be the ordering of thought to recognize the thinking entity as separate from all else.

The more consciousness there is the less chaos remains. All consciousness may have an underlying connection.
