Consciousness, according to biocentrism, is fundamental to the cosmos and impossible to separate from it. We see this firsthand with our own experience of cognition, in that it never disappears. Some might ask, “What about when you die?” But experiencing “being dead” is a logical paradox—you cannot simultaneously “be” and also “not be.” One of the properties of consciousness is that it is never subjectively discontinuous. You cannot experience nothing, since even the words “experience” and “nothingness” are mutually exclusive.
