Guy with 7 second memory has many signs of total ego death

[traveler]

He describes he has lost all sense of time. He has been having amnesia for 20 years but says it feels like no time has passed.

He also says he is completely incapable of thinking. And other stuff. Thoughts on this? Seems like what it would mean to lose your ego almost interely.

Her wife also describes that he loves watching rugby and cricket, but he has no idea who's playing and what the score is. He just enjoys watching the swing of the bat. Talk about being in the now.

 

This is from his diary:

Of course ego is rooted in memory. If memory is disrupted so will ego.

So you are telling me that consciousness is awakening in his experience constantly everytime he loses his memory?

Nope. Not really...

consiousness is "awakened" in a baby/infant... But it's not much use is it?

 

Same deal here.
