Consciousness is the only thing which exists? I had this idea, I actually know it's an idea centuries older than me. But what if the thing we refer to with the word "I" is in fact the only thing in existence?

When an experience takes place, the mind will interpret it as a split between an apparent observer, and an apparently observed object. What if like the Sun, the observed object is self luminous, wherein the sound is made OF awareness and is not actually appearing TO something else.

I want to propose that all things in existence are simply modulations of awareness, whereby awareness is a stand-in as a sort of "substance" which itself is sheer nothing (consider: remove all things you are aware OF from awareness, what is left?)... All things are simply made OF that very same substance which is itself nothing... Sounds, sights, atoms, DNA, everything that is, is simply a modulation of awareness. A type of structure made of what a human would call consciousness... It is not the best term because even non-experienced things are made of it, but it's what we best know it as and call it.

All need for a creator is removed, any "why" is answered, all infinite regress is eliminated.

I post the theory here, because I like talking to rational people and obviously as you know full well, x and his are not the place for that... What do you think.
