What you say sounds right, and I hope it is true, but how do you really know that CC has
nothing to do with brain function? How do you know that the experience that
consciousness is separate from the body is more than just a "sense" created by the brain? I
am asking this because I want to know, not to be difficult. This is what I wonder about
alot.

I like the way you put this. Also, Dr. Pete, in the last few months your posts are somewhat
different than they once were - not better or worse- just more direct, maybe less patient
with TM. Clear and bold. Just an observation.
