No because the question does not make a lick of sense.

Of course it is humorous.

It is akin to asking where my famous chili would be if I had never mixed beans, beef, peppers, tomatoes and onions; and cooked the ingredients to sublime perfection.

The way it is worded comes off that way, but the question is hinting at a huge mystery.

Your world-famous chili is not exactly the same because it does not possess a perspective of it's own.

Why do "I" experience life through my eyes? 
If we have no "souls" (of which I believe you have little doubt), why does this compartmentalized piece of awareness seem to belong to me and me alone? 
It's mind boggling IMO.

The only explanation that makes sense to me is that the collective consciousness is the only thing that really does exist; everything else, including the material world, is a sophisticated set of nested illusions that the collective consciousness dreamed up out of boredom. The prime illusion, and the one upon which all others are predicated, is that separation exists.

It's a bit subtle but if you give it a chance isn't it clear what is outside and what is inside yourself is really the same thing? In the same inner space? It's not salvation but it's worth noting if you're questioning existence.

I can definitely distinguish between the inner and outer.  Mainly because doing that you can separate your fantasy/illusions verse the actual reality of what is going down.

I think the whole inner outer external internal notion has to be worded more thoroughly.  The common terms just don't really cut it, there needs to be a common understanding with that that is more precise and elaborate.  Instead of just inner and outer or the external and the internal.

... Well I don't mean to call it your illusion but just your own created imagining. ... Actually thinking that through some more gets interesting to me.  "Your illusion".  As in the internal experience that is the default with us.  Hows your illusion ?  Your world ?

The inner is an imagining ability that can be spewed out in the external environment with other external means.  So it's not necessarily illusion.  But there's obviously big time potential for illusion.  :crazy2:

it doesn't exist

powerful others force rule our beings life while obviously any thought is meaning nothing or objects realities so conscious realization of individuals is always about something else

we are mortals we cant mean ourselves conscious in truth
