mind and body

what is the relation between the inside (consciousness)
and the outside (the non-
conscious)?

for Descartes the problem of the mind-body relation was
a question of interaction - this issue does not arise on
my view

two dimensions of the one entity -

does it make any sense to speak of an inside interacting
with its outside or visa versa?

consciousness is the inside - it's surface - the body
- is the outside of consciousness

'sensation' - if you like - has two dimensions - it is
conscious and its is non-conscious - it is the outside -
it is the inside

the unity - the totality - as such - is without description
- it is the unknown - it is nameless
