Abstract

The brain has been the subject of scientific inquiry for centuries, yet we continue to unravel its mysteries. One of the most intriguing questions is how the brain creates a perception of reality. The Neurophilosophical model of the Neuronal World (NWM) is a scientific theory that explains how the brain makes a neural model of the world and a self-model through wave synchronization of neurons in the connectome. The NWM includes illusionism, which explains that the phenomenal character of consciousness is an illusion. The NWM proposes two basic models of the neuronal world: a model of the world and a self-model created by any brain. Understanding the self-model is crucial to gaining insight into the brain's workings. The NWM refutes the notion of the existence of consciousness, explaining that this concept does not reflect the accurate picture of how the brain creates a virtual model of reality. By exploring the NWM, we can gain insight into the workings of the brain and its role in creating perception of reality, which can have an impact on various fields, including neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy.
