Its an illusion of millions and millions processes of perception and sensory experiences. Brain chemistry. That's all "we" are. Objectively speaking, there is no real "you" or "I", not within the chemical, physical or biological worlds.
I think I think... therefore I am?
I agree with Sam Harris on this one: "Consciousness is the one thing in this universe that cannot be an illusion." (His article, "The Mystery of Consciousness" is pretty good; for anyone interested, here you go: http://www.samharris.org/blog/item/the-m...sciousness )
