Yes but the mind isnt
See, when you talk about these sorts of things, you really have to be careful, I mean it, these lines of thought aren't as obvious as you'd think.
Of course, we see that any associated brain function will have a direct and immediate affect on the conscious "I".
But it is only through the conscious experience that this is "known," there is no reason to suspect that the brain comes before the "mind".
The mind is the "I" everything that is subjective, all qualia. It is fundamental.
How else would this unification of senses come about in the hierarchy of the physical machine that is our body? Why aren't cells conscious, why aren't rocks conscious? There is information being transmitted between atoms in all cases.

This is EXACTLY what Schrodinger says. Read Nature and The Greeks or the ending of his essay What is Life?

Also more easily accessible are the specific quotes.
I think so. But it probably doesn't last forever.

Vedanta. Upanishads. They all say the same thing. It's Monism. You can't speak of the world without including the self.
Completely agree.
