The Origin and Essence of Consciousness

Marxist philosophy says:

Consciousness originates from the material world and is the product of the long-term development of the material world and human society. Its physiological basis is the human brain, and the essence of consciousness is subjective image.

In other words, without nature, there would be no human society, no human society, no labor, no language, no human brain with special functions that can distinguish it from animals, and no consciousness.

The essence of consciousness is a subjective image, because the formation of consciousness is inseparable from objective matter, and it is a reflection of objective matter.
