consciousnessThe philosopher hiraculitis Said you cannot step into the same river twice. Even if you return to the same spot on the bank, different water flows in upon you at every moment. Therefore you can never retrieve an experience in full. So to see the world exactly as you did a half an hour ago is impossible just as it is impossible to see it from the point of view of a different person standing next to you. The mind flows on and on and on and they ceaseless stream of consciousness.
