MIND BLOWN: The sixth sense is the conscious Self

In kindergarten, they teach you that you have five senses: sight, sound, smell, taste and touch.

But to solve the problem of mind-body dualism for you, existential philosophy would have it that your mind is subservient to your body and is a background projection of it. Your brain has a sense—your Self or consciousness. Your belief systems, your values and the person you call “I” are all instances of your brain sensing the world.
