Clarke's Third Law - "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magick."

The brain exists in a transdimensional state of time, space, and ever-extending adaptation to the environment; internal and external.

Reason can be viewed as Clarke's mention of "advanced technology"...as adaptation on such a high level of precision and responsiveness that it comes across as a "technology". This "technology" has twisted humans around to look and themselves as these heads filled with a "magic box" that allows them conscious thought and reasoning existence.

I do not have firm views on what consciousness truly is, but I do believe that its boundaries are infinite, although the advance of which it reaches the infinite (or perhaps its own subconscious Jungian singularity) is sufficiently slow enough to allow for vast leaps in adaptation...that which we have theorized to be higher intellect or a new superhuman intelligence (Prometheus Rising).

Consciousness gives the most ironic and truest form of existence - one in which the only possibility for its existence is the fact that it exists in the first place. One cannot question this consciousness without it being there in the first place, and the endless cycle of such is always entertaining and everlastingly hilarious.

Reality is a really funny, yet subtle joke.
