I do not much like internet chat at all, but here is my 5 cents worth
to the idea of mind-brain.com:
Placing the mind in the brain is a fundamental error. Every cell of your body
is alive and is part of the universal mind. As you expand your awareness,
you become simply more aware of the interconnectedness of the universe and
correspondingly increase the level of instinctive control over the wholeness
of your body. By focussing on the brain, the blood vessels in your eyes
may burst, your joints may become arthritic, your muscles may atrophy, yet
like Lazarus you are still waiting for the day of revelation. This is an
error. A good book in science fiction, which describes a hypothetical
recipe for this level of control is Vladimir Sawchenko: The three-fold
Self, unfortunately a book that is so totally out of print that I sometimes
fear I own the only remaining copy.

but this expanded awareness is realized by brain function.

you're talking about the universal mind? Regardless, the contents and form of our consciousness are both due to our brain function. To say otherwise is meaningless unless you can further back up your position and show how centuries of neuroscience is misguided.

I suspect the book you are referring to is available to read or copy on the web at
this webpage
