interesting 'split mind effect' last night

[Gandalf]

Last night I also experienced an intersting  split mind effect upon waking up, although its difficult to describe, i will try!

I woke up to find that I was two minds!!!
Lets just say the left hand one and the right half one.. now i was still 'in physical' as it were, just lying there half asleep..
A thought entered my 'left mind' but my other half had not thought of it yet (cant remember what the thought was).... so i experienced the moment of both thinking of something but also of not thinking of something at the same time!!!
then the same thought occured in other half of my mind so they then came into sync.. the funny thing being that i knew what i was about to think BEFORE I started thinking it (due to my other mind thinking it before)... so a kind of reverse deja vu effect....

Ok so you should be completly lost by now, I know i am... mind splits are always so confusing..

LOL.... It sounds like you are having way too much fun there, Doug!

Seriously, though,
this sort of thing is perfectly in keeping with Mr. Bruce's model:  ie, Several independent, yet interdependent, "places" the likes of which can support... provide the platform for, if you like, consciousness, and even consciousness of complexity sufficient to reference itself.

The (your) experience raises a great class of questions!

1) "Which" chunks of Being are being conscious here?  .. and what are the strengths, weaknesses, "flavors" of each?

2) What brings about this dual operating mode?  What inhibits it?  Is the experience replicable?  Is the appreciation/experience of any particular object, by this "stereoscopy", as it were,  as deepened as expectation might have it?

3) Is it possible to sport about in full operation with two minds at once 24/7?  Would it even be desirable?  (After all, ONE mind is bad enough, pesky as they are with demanding center stage and all).  If Yes and Yes, and the two minds was the custom, would they not come to synthesis in their actual operation, and be experienced as one, albeit far deeper, even as with our two eyes we experience but one sense of vision?

4) What exactly are the dynamix involved in the information flow (if that is what we should call it) between the two systems?  What is the first indication that it is occurring?... that is to say... in one of the "minds", there must be some little circuit, some little voice, that says to the rest of its  mind something along the lines of  "Hey!  there is someone else about thinking out loud!  What gives?"  I'm not expressing this well, but hopefully the notion comes across.

5)  Then there's the whole suite of questions that flow from the very idea of mind melding.... if two can meld, why not three?  Must they all belong to the same person?   Can one mind, amoeba like, bifurcate into two?  Can two lovers meld their minds into one?  If so, and they truly wish to permanently wish to be "one", might they then for at least convenience of proximity incarnate into one body together, next go round?  Can this mind merging business conduct across species, as in the case of various totem shaman?

Gosh, I sure can ramble!  Sorry!

I should use one of my other minds when out surfing the boards....~

What would happen if you changed your mind and quickly joined the split mind?  How confusing would that get?

Just curious.

Since you have done it once it should be easy to do it again. You should be able to, at this time, have a waking projection experience while, say, typing on the computer using this.
