Consciousness is Nothing but a Word,
And the word was spoken and the word was with God.
And the spirit was given from God.
The interesting part about Helen Keller,
She did not recognize one mental state from another because she had no thoughts?
But obviously she did how could you not?
She must have recognized the difference, from the sleep state to the wake state and all of what she felt, the right and wrong of her actions, what worked for her.
How she associated, reward for food and bodily functions had to be a mental state sleep and waking.
Just because she didn’t put it in words doesn’t seem plausible, to have “no thought”.
To have no reality in a visual world would be like being put into total darkness with no view of where you were and if alone in that darkness what could you perceive especially if you couldn’t hear also?
If everything is linked through life why not minds.
To say you lose all senses, when dead, isn’t plausible.
Senses are everything she was brought one step closer from feel, into consciousness and the light.
This was done by some one, with compassion for that person, by interactions through here and their senses, the ones that they could work with.
Information is every thing, the word the actions.
You have us believe we are plunged into the darkness when in reality you are brought forth from the darkness for Helen only a certain degree, which shows coming out of darkness.
So you have a problem when the flesh drops off and then we are brought into the light even further, and our senses are enhanced?
But you have no doubt that when it ends it ends, back to darkness?
Do I read right?
Is there a case study with some one that has no senses?
No feel or touch, blind, deaf, smell, taste?
Why should a mind need these to be a mind?
So to experience the universe you need these senses. The link between minds seems to be here why not to a higher mind
Higher consciousness?
