Thomas Nagel's essay was based on the importance of consciousness as well as the subjective nature of experience. Nagel makes some very good points in his essay, What Is It Like to Be a Bat? Explain that we experience everything as subjective and not objective. After analyzing Nagel's essay, I decided that he had a strong argument that every organism that experiences consciousness will experience it in its own way. Nagel also talks about the mind-body problem, discovered by René Descartes, which concerns the physical body interacting with the non-physical mind which is also linked to consciousness as it is based on the individual's own understanding. Although Nagel points out that we can assume or try to understand a situation through our own personal understanding, this will never be the same as actually being the person or thing experiencing something for themselves. In other words, Nagel believes that there are certain experiences that are completely beyond human understanding. Nagel argues that consciousness is the reason why each of us differs in our views or perspectives on how we experience everything we experience. Nagel emphasizes that consciousness and experience can only be seen in a subjective context based on personal opinions, interpretations, viewpoints, emotions and judgments and not in an objective context, which is based on facts , measurable and observable. In other words, He says that each organism that experiences consciousness is unique because no other organism shares this experience. He continues to explain that an organism has conscious mental states if there is something like being that organism, what Nagel called the subjective character of experience. The...... middle of paper ......the, since I don't know what it's like to be another human being, like a family member or a friend, but I know what it means to be me, so do I really know what it feels like to be “human”? Assuming that the human represents all of humanity. In conclusion, I believe that Nagel makes a strong argument about subjectiveness and that each species experiences everything differently. And this is due to the fact that their own consciousness has had different experiences and interpreted everything in its own way. And this is the main reason for the mind-body problem, which has not been solved till date. So no matter how much we hear the same thing, see the same thing, or go through the same process as the person next to us, the way we experience experiences based on our own perspective will never be the same as that of others. others. person or organization.
