The brain is but an instrument by which consciousness expresses itself.


Hornell N. Hart (1888-1967) was a Professor of Sociology at Duke University from 1938 to 1957. Dr. Hart's investigation of out-of-body experiences (also known as astral projection) and psi phenomena led him to theorize that the brain was but an instrument by which consciousness expressed itself, rather than a generator that produced consciousness. Hart contended that the available evidence strongly supported the testimonies of those individuals who claimed that their personal consciousness had observed scenes and acted at long distances away from their physical bodies.
