I find Jackie's comment
I find Jackie's comment about coexistence between the brain and NS without cables being cut very interesting. I think another example of this is hypnosis. Unlike OBE, however, one is alert the whole time and aware of their surroundings. When someone is hypnotized, their conscious mind is lessened so that they are in a very relaxed state and their subconscious mind opens up so they are thinking with only their subconscious mind. Therefore, they do things without consciously know they are doing it. When a person is hypnotized and someone else tells them their tongue has swollen up, the hypnotized person will feel a sensation in their mouth and begin to talk in a funny manner because they actually think their tongue has swelled up. What amazes me is that the hypnotized person does not remember their actions after they "wake up". Hypnosis is another example of how there can be inputs in the brain that produces outputs, but the "I-function" of the brain is not aware of these outputs.
I have also learned from this website, http://science.howstuffworks.com/hypnosis1.htm, that people experience forms of hypnosis everyday. These include reading, watching television or a movie, driving, and daydreaming. It is amazing to me that actions can still exist even when our "I-function" is shut off.
