Scientists specializing in cosmology and neuroscience state that the human brain has more than 100 billion nerve cells, and a galaxy like our own Milky Way contains a similar number of stars, around 100 billion. Simply put, this is a huge number. In many ways, one brain is like a galaxy in terms of its infinitude and capability. Beyond that, what does this tell us about reality? It remains a mystery that humans are "thinking meat, conscious meat, dreaming meat, and living meat," as noted by someone quoted on page 23 of "The Mind and the Brain" by Jeffrey Schwartz.
