>I am not sure if I have a mind at all.

You think, therefore you have a brain! 

Your posts about your new mind are always mind-blowing.

Here's a few quick thoughts: 

Is your absence of underlying thoughts not a blessing? One that folks spend a great deal of time trying to achieve? Those few times I have tried to meditate, I have always been shocked by the types of thoughts that go, unbidden, through my brain. I wonder if those are going *all the time,* underlying and influencing my more deliberate reason.

When one hears voices, might those not be those underlying thoughts having gotten louder? (sorry about the weird verb tenses. I do that when I'm thinking *hard*) 

You've made me want to meditate, to better acquaint myself with my underlying thoughts to that, when I'm trying to consciously puzzle something out, those underlying and less desirable thoughts are not guiding me to erroneous conclusions. Hm.

Do you now come to conclusions that are different from those of your pre-stroke brain's?

This is fascinating. You've been given (the hard way) something that yogis spend lifetimes trying to receive.
