Pains and Other Secondary Mental Entities
There are, or very much appear to be, a number of things in the universe with the following characteristics: they are private to any person who is aware of them in a certain way; they seem very possibly to exist only if someone is aware of them in a certain way; they are not literally constituents of states of consciousness; they are not composed of atoms and molecules but may have some physical characteristics such as shape, spatial location, an…
