Maybe there is - out of many, one.
Maybe the mind is also a similar phenomenon of individual entities joining together to form a whole.
Maybe all the minds on this planet and living things form a whole (or single) entity.
Does a daisy have some notion of its existence? Yet it is still alive. Life is not always sentiment...

I have always wondered if the earth is a Sentient Being. Is this planet alive?
Well, seeing that you can't get living things from dead things, the answer would be "yes."
Earth is alive. The creatures living on the surface of the living earth are like the maggots on a dying corpse.
