Whenever I attempt to justify the existence of anything I always look for a polarization of the principles that allow it to exist. Consciousness is far reaching and Universally pervasive. In the case of the mind, its polar complement is represented by the individual's sub-conscious suppression of the stored memories of thought developments and experiences so as to preserve the security of our unique identities and in order to recognize ourselves as unique entities. Remember that fellow, the physicist Bucksbaum from Michigan University who proved that an electron can store an infinite amount of information? Well, of course it must be able to, because our visual system processes information modulated on all the particles in the medium with our brains. I believe that there must at some point be some kind of transmitter/receptor link communicating via the consciousness web from the central processing units of our brains with the stored information in our memory cells, even if only at the molecular level. There must be a practical purpose to that horseshoe shaped antenna-like assemblage of neurons cradling the nodes of the midbrain. Storage of information in our brains means that this information can be potentially extracted externally by another's brain, because atoms, molecules, and cells are constantly communicating through the medium of this three-dimensional reality. There is no slipping a card between anything at all, as I see it. But we need to retain our unique identities, and this occurs at the spiritual level, because the information can persist for ever, even after we shed the finite and corporeal. So as a result our memories are kept to ourselves as best as can be done unless we permit their release after interpretation, by writing or speaking. We may all each very well have our very own encryption protocal for the storage of our memories, and this only because of the myriad possibilities that existed once our cells began dividing. One thing is for certain, we could not exist outside some relative framework of time.

Good to see you back posting again,Baud,And I tend to go along with your idea here.

It is in making the connections,and understanding them that we grow,the more connections we make,the more alive we become and the less exclusive we are.
