@Lal said “So, I would like to hear others’ ideas about this. There is a “world out there”, only when we are awake and our six senses can bring in sense inputs.”
I went through the same medical experience.
If the world is but our 6 senses then why talk about brahma realms or any other realm whatsoever different from ours? But on the other hand one admits that it is through Mind (via Jhana) that one can “see”/experiment the realms invisible to the naked eye.
And what about manomaya kaya when one his in such a state of “deep unconsciousness” ? Yet the only thing which is unconscious whilst in such “deep sleep” is one’s everyday conscious, that is, our little everyday conscious “I”.
The “lifestream” that one is, as you call it yourself (posts on the (non)self), remains active – remember how the Gotama described (summing up) certain advanced Jhanas : “the body is almost like a corpse however one is differently alive” and “the meditator loses conscience of his/her own body…”
