I think this has been proven, kinda.

Alien hand syndrome makes me believe this. Usually occurs when something traumatic happens to the brain. The way it's described seems like the dominant consciousness losing control of that motor function to the lesser consciousness.

I'm pretty sure the reason we even came up with this is because of a treatment to epilepsy, which the treatment is literally cutting the connection between the two segments of the brain.

OK but what is a "conscience entity"

they could just ask me and I would confirm

[-] cout970@programming.dev 1 points 7 months ago

so are we a mixture of experts too?

It's the same as the old devil v angel on your shoulder bit. There's a left hemisphere mode of understanding, a right hemisphere mode of understanding, and there's what happens when they're well integrated, which is mostly only achievable through meditation.

Just for the record, the left brain is the denialist, which offers hypotheticals and which takes the behaviour of others and places it firmly outside yourself, edifying the lie you tell yourself that you are separate and different from the other largely identical monkeys. The right brain tends to communicate in gestalts and complete pictures, without negativity and possibly without reference to individuality; YMMV.

I'd buy it, but... when we die which one goes on as a soul, or do they both?

I'm just kidding of course....

Well they're usually connected with nerves so more like 1 brain.

Basically only for people with an internal monologue. Stupid-ass meme.
