Consciousness as a Mobius Strip

     This video references consciousness as being related or similar to a mobius strip.  Consciousness is defined as the state of being aware of one's own existence, sensations, thoughts, surroundings, etc.  In the video, a mobius strip is described as being an endless surface and any attempt to reorient it transforms it to that which it is not.  In my opinion, the definitions of these two contradict each other.  It says that a mobius strip is an ongoing surface that cannot be adjusted or changed, it is to remain the way it is and if attempted to change then it no longer holds its legitimacy.  Where consciousness  is a state of being aware of our surroundings and how we think and feel.  Our surroundings, thoughts, and feelings can be easily influenced by outside forces that are out of our control.  The manner in which we interact with and handle certain events, society, weather, beliefs, etc can have a huge impact on our consciousness and our perception of things. 

     With that being said, I think that consciousness is not related in any way to a mobius strip.  Consciousness, unlike a mobius strip, can be altered without changing its original state, whether willingly or not, but it is possible and that does not change its original form.  Consciousness is consciousness and not because it has swayed one way or another has it lost its validity.  I do believe that our consciousness has the ability to form its own opinion on certain things, like I mentioned on my post regarding the video The Disneyland of Consciousness, but it can easily be influenced and changed to a different way of seeing things by further investigating what was originally presented before it.
