What if our locus of control wasn’t directly behind our eyes? Interesting that our mind grew to present the world to our consciousness that way, rather than via e.g. a third person overheard view.

had a weird shower thought the other day - imagine some type of VR glasses paired with a tiny drone that follows behind you overhead. for those that prefer living in 3rd person. rooted in my love of 3rd person video games I guess

I wish I could shake that feeling. A lot of the meditations on Waking Up play around with the sense that you’re behind your eyes looking out at the world. I feel my brain breaking a little bit when I try really hard to pay attention to it.

Our locus of control could have been located anywhere in the body, the world would still be presented to us through our sensory organs, sight being dominant in this case. What I find intriguing here is if our dominant sense presented a third person view rather than a first person pov, would our sense of self differ?

I don't know exactly what would change, but I'm certain our consciousness would undergo a huge transformation. In complex systems, even a tiny alteration in the components can lead to a butterfly effect.
