@Count-A-Strong geez, maybe i should just stick to posting questions on 29 Across in 'The Big Word Puzzle 482'...

of COURSE the light and sound still exist, but they are not labelled light and sound because light and sound are defined from the perspective of the observer and hearer. expand your mind, *sigh*, this is puzzle that many leading philosophers have debated and you are passing it off as easy.

i *despair*
But this is merely a wordplay puzzle. The energy (no matter what you call it) is still there.
In order to objectively grasp the nature of reality it is crucial to make the distinction between perception of that which is not otherwise there, aka delusion and that which produces a legitimate perception. Consciousness is invariably the result of and only made possible by the existence of that of which it has become aware and the existence of that which gives rise to the process that makes awareness possible, the rational mind. That other stuff . . . it's not consciousness.

The eye generates light and the ear sound, no more than a tree through the swaying of its branches generates the wind . . . unless its falling, of course.
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
I am my father after all.
. . . rejoice and be glad you had one.
