But that would be the cool thing - what would the mind become without being anchored by the human experience and body?

It is an interesting thought. Probably become preoccupied entirely with abstract thoughts and ideas without the materialistic anchor.

A hindu myth covers that. It talks about how the first entity/mind became aware - and in that awareness the first thing it thought of was, "I am alone!". So it created another entity. :)

Perhaps the mind is just one creative impulse.

Sounds like what many beliefs say about moving on from this world to the next.

I wonder if being bound to a computer would create its own boundaries for the mind, though.

Takes a bit of mental gymnastics to get a grasp on that one...don't it?
