Здравствуйте, loginx, Вы писали:

L>И еще, мы сами воспринимаем себя через самосознание как нечто непрерывное, не видно отдельных шагов алгоритма...

Это только по невнимательности. При должной тренировке можно увидеть дискретность. Тот же Барендрегт пишет:
After developing mindfulness to a sufficient degree, one encounters during the
first principal phase of the training `the fundamental characteristics of existence'.
One notices that ordinary consciousness consists of a chaotic process of flashes,
following each other one by one, without us being capable of controlling them.
This causes a very strong resistance and even disgust: at any price one wants to
avoid this dissociation, the mother of all existential fears and the very cause of
war. Our usual consciousness is an illusion indeed. But as it is based on flashes of
awareness, this just shifts the problem of its origin. A symptomatic way to cover
up the chaos consists of creating emotions, thoughts, or other behavior that we
usually consider as part of us and to which we are attached, nay addicted.
