Abstract: The current theories of consciousness do not address the two major problems: What is the solution to the hard problem of consciousness or What is the experience of self-existence? and how is conscious perception computed? We address these questions using our hypothesized theory: The Self Simulation theory and propose a model of computation of consciousness. The components of the model are an interconnected network of auxiliary processors or Auxiliary Neural Networks(AN) which receives input from the external sensory modalities, computes a representation of the information and relays it to the NCC(Neural Correlates of Consciousness).
