Thanks for a good read. I like the example you give of people having multiple personalities or multiple minds. In regular life, we've become so identified with mind, glued to it. And because of that identification, we need our minds to be coherent, reliable, and we make it perform in patterns and put it on repeat to create that coherence. Missing out on all the spontaneity and variety that the mind could have.
I like Bohm's model :). I think the mind is in fact waved from the same fabrics as stars and baseballs and everything else. Just like everything else, mind is a tool we can use as we like in our lives. But we are not the mind. And only when we have a deeper understanding of who and what we are, and that the mind is just one of the distractions that can pop up to that confuses us as to what and who we are - mind can have it's place as an (impressive, but still) tool and can be optimised for best use.

thanks for the excellent comment @amritadeva - I fully agree on your last point. Mind is a beautiful and powerful tool as long as we make it work for us and not over-power us and keep us entrapped. Use it when needed, then leave it. When mind is out of the way, life just happens because we are in the flow. thanks again!
