MRI or other scanning techniques show how particular parts of the brain 'light up' when particular mental activities are going on. But then the video and sound of TV sets also depend on the patterns of electrical activities inside it.
So different circuits are involved in images and sounds.. but this doesn't mean what you see and hear on the TV originates inside the TV.. couldn't the Brain be like this too?
What neuroscientific evidence or arguments to illustrate the brain is the origin of all we think and feel and not like a TV receiver (just a dumb terminal)?
I'm not arguing for any view, just want to know existing knowledge and facts about the brain.
