Sure! What exactly do you think consciousness is (or is not)? You seem to think that I was motivated to enter this conversation in order to feel smart, but asked my original question because I was genuinely interested in your point of view.
Even if it is an illusion created by the brain, does that make it any less existent?
Yes. Or in other words:
If you see a mirage of a spring in the desert can you quench your thirst?
That better for you?
What exactly do you think consciousness is (or is not)?
Evidence suggests that “consciousness” is the mechanism that allows separate parts of the brain to communicate with other parts of the brain and coordinate activities. The hypothesis is this is done by the frontal cortex which is responsible for reasoning, decision making, and controlling voluntary movements. However, there is still much research required in Neurosciences before we have a solid theory and understanding of consciousness.

So in other words… it exists.
It is worth nothing that the first sentence is exactly my perspective, as I explicitly stated earlier:
I think that consciousness in the brain is just an approach that it uses to aggregate and share information amongst several subcomponents.
