They are very different.-The hypothesis that consciousness arises as a direct consequence of the brain's structure has yet to be verified/refuted. -There is no logical basis to claim they're different unless you're talking about an "inner" analysis (analyzing your own mind) and an "outer" analysis (analyzing PET scans of your own brain.)
