Consciousness of not being a person


We are not tied to being the consciousness of a person or a body. By changing the sensepath we can be conscious and not have any awareness of having a human body that we are connected to. If we do not have any experience of having a body or sense there being any one else that has a body would we be concerned about personal identity or would we then be concerned about conscious identity? If we did not experience the death of other bodies how would we be aware of death in others


Can we change being conscious to not being conscious like we can change being a person to not being a person and still exist? Personal identity and existence are not what matters it is conscious existence and identity that matters we can eliminate being a person but we can not eliminate being the experience of being conscious and say we are still alive. It is not about being a person that matters it is bing conscious that matters so a science existence is what is important

Can we be conscious and not experience being a person? Yes! At any moment the sense path that you experience can be changed such that we do not see a body from our perspective when we hear we do not have to hear a body existing when we feel we can feel not as a body but as the object that we are observing so that we feel what we are looking at we can also smell and taste what is around us not from or mouth or our noses. We are no limited to one perspective for this we can be like the experience of more than one TV set working at one time. In this scenario we do not experience being a person we are a consciousness unconnected to a body we might never make the connection of this consciousness being connected to the body of a person. How would we experience the existence of other consciousness beings? We do not experience the existence of other conscious beings as people we just extrapolate that there are other conscious beings because we see ourselves as a human body and then we see other human bodies and then speculate or hope they are conscious as well.

How can a conscious being that has no experience of being a person or other body come to believe that there are other conscious beings? He can first speculate about what he is and then ask if there is anything else that experiences things like he does,there is also the situation of experiencing with out control over what you are experiencing experiencing a feeling of separateness difference etc. the experience of remote viewing of another consciousness
