> Me = I/energy + body/matter. When I, as energy, leaves me, the body, the body dies, and I, as energy, continue on. Whether as a conscious aware energy or just abstract energy, regardless, I, as energy, continue.

> I would think that without the (I) energy that makes the body alive, the brain is just physical matter, like dirt. So I would say the body/brain is like a puppet. Once the (I) energy enters the puppet body, the energy takes on the puppets life. So it would seem to me, I, as energy, do not necessarily tell the brain/body (me) what to do, but enable the brain/body (me) to live a life.

> Hope this wasn't even more confusing. I know you've heard this all before in some sense, as we all have, and is nothing new. So no trip to Stockholm for "ME" - and I was so looking forward to it.-This sounds just like the primary statement of my philosophy professor who said in 1949: "mind is energy on the inside and matter is energy on the outside". Bella's entire discussion sounds like the theologic discussion of 'ensoulment'in Genesis.
