consciousness is an emergent phenomenon from large numbers of neurons connected together in a particular way. The same neurons could be connected differently and there would be no consciousness. There is no magic molecule or energy field which makes consciousness. If you keep subdividing in the search for the magic ingredient of consciousness, it simply disappears. And yet consciousness definitely does exist. As you say, we experience it. Because we see it from above: it is only from below that it is not there.
