Part of the mystery and excitement about consciousness is that scientists don't know what form the final answer will take.

Physicists have theorized about many different types of forces for matter. The strong force, the weak force, magnetism, gravity, and whatever else.

But, there might be another force which they haven't thought about or are afraid to postulate: that property of matter might be 'awareness' or consciousness. The most minute particle would possess that property and when interacting with a few or many particles, that 'consciousness' gets augmented. And depending upon the types of matter doing the interaction, the consciousness takes many different forms.

That consciousness property of matter could be called the "God' force.
