It got me thinking about how we define ‘brain death’ as opposed to ‘death’. The program proposed that the mind could actually be seperate from the brain…………..a concept promoted by traditional Buddists.

It is always interesting to acknowledge the diversity of scientific thought and to remember that scientific pruinciples we now take for granted as ultimate truths were often discredited when they were first proposed by forward thinkers such as Gallileo, DaVinci, Pythagoras etc.

Maybe our minds are seperate??? Maybe our mind is like tea in a cup………if you break the cup and the tea spills on the floor, the cup is no longer a cup, but the tea is still tea………….even if you mop it up with a cloth, it is still tea, but in a different container.

In fifty years time will we acknowledge that the mind moves from container to container as an ultimate scientific truth???
