I have felt that everything could potentially be conscious. The chair I sit on, the tools I use, the clothes I wear, the air I breathe...
And that I should be grateful that I have such an impact on my surroundings compared to these other things.
For I would not assume that the cells in my body are not conscious. I believe they are as just as alive as I am.
And I do not mind following the slippery slope in accepting the possibility that everything is conscious.
I often like to think that it is not that everything in the world is insignificant, but rather that we are incapable of fathoming just how important everything is in this universe. That everything has weight and is important. Every thought, action, and event has such significant weight, and we are oblivious to this.
I think this is one of the core reasons we experience life under the veil, so we can make mistakes and learn more about context.
