So where is the objective world actually experienced? When? In our brains, in our bodies, or out there and back then? Even if we answer these questions, we have an
obvious problem: Where is the observer? Indeed, where the experience takes place and where the observer exist are the most difficult things to talk about.
Where is the homounculus? Where is the person who experiences the outside world? In the brain? In the body? In the whole universe? In all of my research I have yet to find the location of the observer of reality in the brain or the
nervous system. I havent found him in the body either.
Just as, according to quantum rules, the True object seems to fade away __like the cats face in the Alice in Wonderland ___I concclude that there is no one there to observe it. There is no person in the body or in the nervous system. Referring
to what we would call the ego, the Buddha taught there is no I. He also saw that there are no objects out there independent of this I who does not exist.
Not much to stand on is there? The Beatles were right; Nothing is real. The French got even closer to the truth when they coined the word personne to signify nobody. But if there is no witness, no fundamental observer, then what is
going on? Don't get the Buddha wrong , there is something going on, but it is not as it seems to you, for you don't really exist.
But if you don't exist, what does? Well, it seems that the scripts are real, written down in an imaginal that may be more real than what we perceive.
