Every phenomenal, subjective state is caused by a particular physical mechanism in the brain. There is a circuit for seeing your grandmother in a picture or in life, another one for hearing the sound of the wind whispering through pine trees on a mountaintop, and a third one for the vicarious rush when rapidly weaving on a bicycle through city traffic.
