What would your mind be like if you had never experienced any senses?

I definitely think the world as we know it isnt as we know it, theres more. Or its certainly a possibility anyway.

I think there is a lot more but we are limited in what we can perceive, our brains literally couldn't cope if we are able to perceive everything.

Our freewill is nothing but a choice to give more slack on a sophisticated string or to pull the string close. If you are making bad freewill choices, the and there is too much slack you will be cut from the connecting string and you will be an animal without a conscious.

A nice idea Jack but not so sure. I think your talking about a soul which I would disagree with due to lack of evidence and me being a grown up.

From what I can measure in an objective scientific manor:

the mind is an emergent property of the brain. Moreover, a by-product the same as consciousness which is just an evolutionary advantage.., But not something that is 'real'in any sense of the word. Basically - the mind is what the brain does.

You can call it a soul or whatever you want. What im saying is that it might not be the material of a brain creating whatever the hell a thought is. Theres non material stuff in existance all over the universe. Radio waves, magnetic fields, photons...

In the bits of the universe where there is nothing, not a single atom for light years around, the laws of physics still exist. The law is not physical material, it is some weird thing that no one can explain but it means that if 2 objects of enough mass suddenly are there, they will start attracting to eachother due to gravity. And no one can explain why that happens, it is just a fundamental law of physics. We went for many years without understanding any of this, its only fairly recently that humans now know that is a thing.

What is there are other massive revelations which are yet to be had with regards to this type of thing? Like there is actually some kind of force like magnetism or gravity or something but it does other stuff like provide us with consciousness or whatever?

Im not saying I believe any of this stuff, im merely presenting it as a possibility. And yes, i have been watching too many Graham Hancock videos and contemplating a trip to the amazon.

I remember being taught at school that a bar magnet is made up of lots of tiny magnets with the majority of them aligned the same way. This doesn't exactly explain magnetism and where the force comes from!

Not that relevant, but this thread reminded me of that.

What if the 4th dimension is actually a seperate entity to our 3 spacial dimensions? so when you step into it instead of seeing the world all weird and 4 dimensional like a hyper cube, instead you enter a completely different realm. Maybe you dont need to step into it, maybe youre alread in it, but we humans do not posess the necessary senses to experience it? Like a blind person will cannot comprehend the 3 dimensions that we can see, we cannot comprehend this other realm that we are already in because we just cant sense it or observe it.

Really giving this some thought you are Jack.

I commend ye on a very enjoyable thread.

Althogh I see the mind as the function of the brain and nothing more. I am also secretly optimistic that sensory perception is a world of illusion and the truth of my divinity will one day be revealed to myself.

Have you been reading Aldous Huxley's nonsense?
