For the sciences of the modern age, philosophy, psychology and today at the forefront also neurobiology, awareness seems to be something like the philosopher’s stone, or rather like the golden pot buried in the earth at the foot of the rainbow. But it is part of the nature of the rainbow that it recedes as one seems to approach it. You have stretched your hand that close and you never get there! The riddle of the world on a large scale is believed to have been solved with the big bang theory; but that microcosm, which we ourselves are and which should therefore be directly accessible to us, eludes with agonizing persistence.
