Heidi, the overly-brutal replies you've
gotten from others posting in this
thread are 'roughly-correct'.

There are no sensory receptors in
"the brain".

But your claims do have a foundation
in-Truth -- just not the way you've
been trying to communicate what
you say you're 'doing'.

What you say you're doing can, in
fact, be done, but doing it requires
an =intimate= Knowledge of the
Neuroanatomy -- be-cause, although
things are globally-integrated 'within'
the Neuroanatomy in a way that's to-
pologically-simple, there are a =lot=
of details in the coordinated mapping
that's involved in this topological-
simplicity.

This said, it seems =to me= [and I'm
not you] that what you're doing is
working-backward to 'fit' stuff such
as always-externally-observable
effector [in this instance, muscle]
activations into a mental-map that
you've developed.

This is not the same as asserting
that one can "feel" the neural dyn-
amics, but it's =not=, as some
posting in this thread have 'assert-
ed', "halucination'.

=All= "thought" occurs in a way that's
more or less analogous to the stuff
you've described.

Nervous systems literally construct
"models" of external experiential en-
vironments, and subsequently con-
verge upon neural activation 'states'
that're literally founded =in= the "mod-
els" that were formerly constructed.

All of this has stood Proven, in the
Neuroscience experimental results
for 'decades'.

So, while your own 'mis-take' is rel-
atively-minor [your "model" is just
not sufficiently-detailed], the com-
ents of some of the other folks
who've posted in this thread are
not only Verifiably-False, but Hurt-
fully-mean-spirited, 'two'.

Learn more along the lines in which
you've been learning, then Shine-
Brightly.

[I Admire your Courage.]
