This is an exceptional, but reliable, observation suggesting that there is not an absolute association between neuronal events and consciousness (and I'm defining it). i.e events in the amputated limb - I accept that the registering of pain in consciousness is a neuronal event, at some level of analysis, but, in the brain, not the limb."
Amputed limb "belongs" to the phenomenological body not the "physical body" as the brain does. This phenomenological body "is" indeed in the brain. There is no "events in the amputed limb". Best Luc
