Talking about the mind level is another way of talking about the brain level, though figuring out the relationship requires scientific knowledge.
I don’t know enough neuroscience to translate the two contrasting assertions on the mind level into assertions on the brain level. I don’t know enough about neuroscience (and perhaps today, no one does). But they are obviously translatable in principle. They are bona fide, explicit predictions about what future research in neuroscience will find. This seems to me to be a really good example of an explicit testable claim about the world that would follow from enlightenment. Do you see something wrong with it?

What happens if you taboo “self”—what is the disagreement really about?
