Stav, it could also be that the whole brain-study endeavor, attempting to pin our internal states on anything at all biological, is doomed to fail. Humanity in The Matrix has been all but programmed to identify with body & brain, or mind. Yet what is here, present as us, is multidimensional, using the body-mind more as a vehicle — a behicle — for our 3D experience.

We are not that — it is but the little toe of the left foot, next to Who we are in the One that is All There Is. Our realm is infinity/eternity, should we choose to adopt it, for free will plays the key role. Our Belief Systems structure our experience of reality, act as the filters for what we’re willing to take in.

When we live in mind & thought all the time, we’re unable to perceive the melodies of the soul, for lack of better words — the inner promptings of what I call Heart, portal into the All That Is. All time is just Now — you can’t find anyone who has ever walked the planet at any other time than the perceived Now — or the NowHere, seen as the nowhere to any mind. Minds refuse to be still, agitating to time-travel into past concerns or future worries.

While I realize that this is way off-topic for you, yet it relates to the overall proposition that who & what we are can be analyzed via study of brain & nervous system. What if the brain/nervous system is a transceiver, a transmitter/receiver? What if we abide in a huge thought sphere, encompassing us all? Were that the case, then the situation with the Native American trackers who signed-on during WWII would make sense. They lost all tracking ability with the obligatory crew cut. Extensive testing resulted in issuance of a hair-cut waiver — truly a big deal for the US military. It seems clear that their hair acted as antennae — for what? For the transceiver, of course. Food for pondering, at any rate.

Namaste
