Metaphorically if a person is an individual cloud, the substance of the cloud being the body and brain, and thoughts, including "I", the true consciousness is the light ray from the sun that is illuminating the cloud.

If the cloud disperses, did consciousness actually cease? Or is it the thinker that ceases?
