/nothingness/ - The Void

I would go along the lines of just consciousness of a higher dimension piloting a human body. And easily a higher dimension of consciousness could be perceived as a concept.

Your hypothesis doesn't explain then why psi permanently disappear after death and decay.

>>2616

It explains it well, it implies the psi goes elsewhere. Much like getting out of your car after driving it and then doing something else. (kinda bad analogy, but you get what I mean right?)

>>2617

Psi does not typically teleport, they are limited to our three space dimensions and the speed of light. If psi disappears, then it hasn't gone to "another dimension", it has been destroyed.

>>2618

If that is the case, what's your take on Outer Body Experiences? There's a significant amount of people that have been on a surgeon's table, medically dead, but were able to recall conversations taking place in a room nearby where their body were not in.

>>2619

That doesn't imply teleportation. The psi can move out of the body at light speed or slower and "weaken" its amplitudes to be more affected by the environment without use of sensory organs. Then you get into issues of psionoelectromagnetism analogies, where the psi wave is the electric field perturbation, and the psionomagnetic (mpsi) wave is the magnetic field, "anchoring" the psi to physical objects via exchange of mpsi waves.

In your example, the psi waves would de-align with the nervous system of the host body, and drift away in any direction on any path, maintaining connection to the body with mpsi waves.

The same analogy can be used for incorporeal psi, the analogy being that there is an electric field without a magnetic field present. A bit of a stretch, but it still holds up. It also works for more complicated and/or semi-corporeal systems, such as hiveminds and telepaths.
