On Science & Phenomenology in Consciousness Studies

Contzen Pereira

Abstract


Everything around seems phenomenal and appears driven by a conscious experience. Everything is an experience and for the experiencer appears eternally phenomenal and subjective. The conscious ‘How’ can be easily explained by the many reductive based advances in science and other disciplines, but the conscious ‘Why’ persists as phenomenal. The ‘How’ however can be reduced only to a precise limit i.e. the limits of scientific exploration, beyond which it persists to be phenomenal. This paper is an inter-disciplinary understanding of how science and phenomenology can complement each other to help decipher and conform to the hypothetical approach, that everything around is phenomenal.
