Good story wich explains what you want to ask.I didn´t mean to be ironic,sarcastic or anything else wich will offended you.Your story is about changing state of mind,change perspective and how that influence our actions.From that point of view this can be very good and fruitfull discusion.But,that can not change my mind about ontological status of conciusness.Nobody give right answer to that question and that´s why is so intriging(to me at least).Simple example.Does that raise question on dualism and monism.What kind of monism?This questions are just begining of discusion.I hope we will all enjoy this convesation.
