Introduction
The essay is a descriptive form that elaborates the concept of Philosophical Zombies. The
essay also agrees the argument that the existence of Philosophical Zombies are Possible. The

could respond like human being. Thereafter, he admitted that it is to explain human
behaviour, which requires behaviour beyond physical, interaction process in brain,
immaterial mind. No machine can act and react as same as human because there is such no
world that exists physically where people in world lack such mind. Without the functioning
of our minds there is a probability that our heart keep beating, breathe while sleeping, digest
