The article consists of the premise that consciousness cannot be an artefact of the brain based on personal experiences and observations. The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali are offered in support of the premise through the obvious connection between the philosophy in them and my experiences. A layman's understanding of physics suggests that some of the explanations from Yoga and letters from some scientists suggest that in my experiences two minds have become entangled. How this can happen is dependent on the state of the mind of the seer, which needs to be completely empty. This condition of emptiness is something rarely discussed, and since I seem to be in this state most of the time, I believe it is worth exploring.
