There is a simple reason why qualia comes to our rescue when it does. Just think of it as living. It needs to survive.

We know that the flower and the bees need each other to survive; we never think that maybe the colors, smells, tastes, textures, and sounds which brings flowers and bees together are also trying to survive. Sure, qualia is a different sort of life form – it’s not carbon based, it’s not matter of any sort – but it is struggling to endure, to survive, and to replicate itself nonetheless.

Qualia does not just survive – it even evolve. It has obviously found a fertile environment inside our frontal lobes, and that explains why we are full of so many ideas. We are good for qualia and qualia is good for us!
