Remarkable. It strains the brain.

I wonder... Is it possible that our consciousness could be separated from our body? I know that’s a big leap (or is it just a quantum leap?).

The quantum world is no more bizarre than the macro world we know. The difference is due to familiarity.

The mind body problem. Is a mind simply the physical activity of the brain, organized electro-chemical discharges of neurons? Or is there a separate mind associated with a particular brain which grows and develops in conjunction with that brain, and can that mind survive the death of the brain? Is there a soul?

I have a hard time following the physics and not much biochemistry to rely on. Anyone?
