Yes, this is really something to chew on. But, when we assume, Possibility 1: There is the physical and the nonphysical. Our own experiences must put to the nonphysical (in the brain are only physiological processes if we look at it with physicists/medicinal eyes), though our bodies are influencing the kind of stuff we experience, the five (or more) senses. So, somehow it must be work! There must be a kind of connection. But how? With the knowledge the natural sciences have now, we cannot answer this question (ok, there are some theories, some involve quantum mechanics, but this are just speculations) Possibility 2: The physical world is part of the world of consciousness. Then all things are somehow consisting of consciousness matter, maybe there are different kinds of this consciousness matter (some call it different vibrational states) so this silver cord could be a symbol of a) connection with the kind of consciousness-matter called physical, meaning, you have still "subscribed" perceiving this kind of consciousness area=still alive, b) a symbol for a translation line between different consciousness states. I say "symbol" because when we are talking about consciousness, there seems to be no border between solid things, thought-things and symbols, because we can see all things as symbols, taking only their meaning, not to handle it as a thing getting only its surface.
I once had an experience with this silver cord. I was in a meditation, imaginating the energy ball around my body as taught by the TMI. I noticed that it was not perfectly round, as I want it to be, but there was a dent in it, above my belly. I looked closer and "saw" a connection between this dent and a bump at my navel so I thought "That's like to be in mother's womb!" I then looked on the outside of the surrounding energy ball and there was a flexible tube reaching far away. I've read before about the silver cord so I thought "Must be the silver cord!" When I follow it I perceived something similar like Bruce told in his books, though it were not discs but rather shimmering bubbles, one in another. It was like a illustrated Venn-diagram, the bigger ones containing the smaller ones, on each hierarchy plane more than one of the smaller ones were in a bigger one. So, the main thing I guess is not if there is a silver cord and what it is made of or if it's discs or bubbles, but the symbolic meaning of a consciousness-hierarchy.
Bye, Spooky
