Consciousness in Hindu Philosophy

Modern science says consciousness is produced by the brain - neurons firing, chemicals reacting. Hindu philosophy says the exact opposite: consciousness is the foundation of everything, and matter arises from it. This is not just a philosophical preference. It is a fundamentally different way of looking at reality. And honestly? Science is still struggling to explain how physical matter produces subjective experience (they call it the "hard problem of consciousness"). Hindu sages were exploring this territory thousands of years ago.
