what would make you change your beliefs?

So you're making the assumption that the self-awareness, the knowledge that we "are", is not linked to our body, right ?

But when we are "unconscious" (casual definition), we lose the awareness of our body, our ability to think and to feel, etc... All of our abilities seems to go "off". Why would there be an exception with our ability to be self-aware ?

And when we see the advances of neurosciences, explaining lots of those abilities by studying the brain, I'd say that the hypothetical link between self-awareness and our body is likely.
