Aw, my lady-splitter's never allowed access to anyone's intimate circle anymore. So to speak.

Simple.
If there wouldn't be any you wouldn't need to think and think.
The answer would come straight away in your mind or even better it would be already there.
You wouldn't need to think.
But we all think because very often the answer is not there.

That's not even slightly close to how our brain works.

Not always of course because most people haven't trained their mind so they can only penetrate
some of the inner layers 

Somebody better fuckin' buy me dinner, first, that's all I'm sayin'.

In Rik's defense - he doesn't appear to have a specimen of a working brain available for study.

And he learned neuroscience from the movie "Shrek".

Where is your evidence for any of this?

Evidence is secondary when you just pull stuff out of your ass.

Lame.  This isn't evidence, it's a just-so story.  It's just made up.  Worse than that, this evidence also fits the fact that the physical neurons take time to fire.  In other words, this evidence is compatible with both stories, and so it's evidence for neither story.

Indeed this is evidence but you created a dogma in your mind that make you repeat the same mantra..........THIS IS NOT EVIDENCE.......THIS IS NOT EVIDENCE...........THIS IS NOT EVIDENCE.......
Every thing that contradict your dogmas is no evidence even if it is.
Dishonesty on the long run doesn't pay yog.
Better wake up and grow up.  

Quote:When are you going to provide the evidence for parallelism of consciousness and body, huh?

In order to understand the process of rebirth it is necessary to understand what is life. According to Ananda Marga philosophy, life is a parallelism between mind and body. There is a particular wavelength associated with the body, and there is a particular wavelength associated with the mind. Just as in modern physics, the yogis have said that this entire universe is in vibration and that the vibrations are of varying wavelengths. There is a particular wavelength associated with our body and there is a particular wavelength associated with our mind. When these wavelengths are parallel we have life. However, if something happens to the physical body such as an accident or sickness, the physical wavelength may change and the parallelism may be lost. In this case we have what is known as the physical cause of death.

Similarly the body may be functioning properly, but if there is a severe shock to the mind the mental wave may change and the parallelism is lost. This is known as the psychic cause of death. An example of this is a person dying due to having experienced something very fearful.

Another example occurs when animals live with humans. A dog living with a human family is constantly in contact with the more developed human minds. The dog who lives, eats and even travels with the human family begins to undergo an expansion of mind. His mind becomes gradually more and more human-like. If the expansion continues there may eventuality be death due to a loss of parallelism between his mental and physical wavelengths. In this case the mental wavelength has changed due to the contact with human beings and will consequently require a more subtle body with which it can find parallelism. This will probably be a human body.

There is another possibility, which is known as the spiritual cause of death. In very evolved spiritual practitioners the mind will become absorbed in cosmic consciousness, which has a vibration of infinite wavelength represented as a straight line. If the mind attains prolonged parallelism with the cosmic entity, the person will lose parallelism with the physical body. In this case the person “leaves” his or her body and attains the state of moksha. It is not a death in the sense of annihilation, but merger into a state of infinite beatitude.

Gee, i like that.
I guess it is much better to spend an hour or so searching for this in the net than spending hours picking up butts outside the pub.
Well done Nutter.
You deserve one of my special kudu which i rarely give.
