Hegel missed the Phenomenology of Matter. Phenomenology of Mind or Spirit is an oxymoron. Russell and Wittgenstein missed Gödel’s theorem. Lucas and Penrose missed the key fact that PA, PM, ZF, do *not* miss Gödel’s theorem. The neuro-study of brain will teach us a lot on the human and mammal intelligence, but not so much about consciousness, as it would be like understanding how deep blue win a chess game by looking at the theory of electronic transistor. Consciousness is a high level semantic fixed point. It is the (arithmetical) truth, when known immediately, which is indubitable and experienced (first person) yet non rationally definable, and non definable without invoking the notion truth or reality. All universal number have it, but it is very plausibly a highly “altered state of consciousness”. It is the initial state before the first differentiation/histories possibles.
