Guest guest Posted May 20, 2006 Report Share Posted May 20, 2006 5/20/06 L.E: This is a reminder that mind is a creation of the brain's neural/electrical network, which is a creation of the cellular community called the human organism. And that ego, person, or self, is the creation or expression of mind. Each level has no independent existence of its own and relies on the supporting levels for its apparent existence. No brain, no mind, no ego, person, or self. In this sense there is the question of who or what is in control, and who or what is the reality of the situation Most of these discussions see the problem and solution within the realm of mind, and ignore the " neural network " of brain in and by which this all occurrs. If you start with: 'I am the representative of a commnity of cells and am authorized to defend, protect and enhance the survival of my community, you will have this discussion from a more practical and realistic place, and understand the nature of the I am state as to its purpose and existence.
