That is how meditation and dissociative drug can help you to remind

Are you claiming that every thought includes a memory? A memory of

You lost me. I was pretending the contrary. I was with you on this. It
is *because* a thought (a conscious thought) does not necessarily
include a memory or a reference to previous thoughts that you can
remain conscious when taking a drug which disconnect you from all
memories.
Ok. I mistook your point. I agree that memory is not necessary for
consciousness - though I think it is necessary for self-consciousness.
