<p>How about:</p>
<p><strong>"Consciousness is that which is always the observer, and never the observed."</strong></p>
<p></p>
<p>Consciousness itself seems to be a thing in itself, I don't see how we could add to or take away from it. It's always the same thing in all of us throughout our entire lives: the unobservable observer.</p>

<p>Though it is widely believed that "consciousness" is indescribable in words, may I suggest a working definition which could be refined as we go along:</p>
<p>"<em><strong>Consciousness is sum total of all that can be known and is yet to be known</strong></em>".</p>
