It seems you have much too big a role for the brain in that overall view, and it seems to latch "I" to the brain rather than the thinking.

If the brain isn't doing the thinking what is? I latched the concept of "I" to the brain because the brain is the thing which is thinking and thus the thing that is making the statment. Can a person make a statment without using their brain?

Could you clairify your statment in the original post?
