Amos, all you are saying is that you can imagine a scene from a different point of view. That's nothing to write home about, all it requires is a recognition that you have seen many scenes from different angles, and can mentally apply the transforms to get a different view of it. The result will probably be more or less accurate depending on how much experience you have of viewing the object imagined, and other similar scenes, from different aspects. That doesn't require any modifications to even the most primitive concepts of how the mind runs in the brain. It CERTAINLY doesn't require that the mind should ever have to run outside the brain.

If you are making any stronger claim than that, until you provide the evidence, I stand by my statement: to any claim that the mind can be detached from the brain, the reply is, no, it can't. Prepared to modify that statement on the basis of evidence.
