12. An Automobile and its Driver
A metaphor that seems to illustrate the brain/mind relationship is that of an automobile and its driver. The brain might be likened to the engine of the automobile, while the mind might be likened to the driver. The brain is, of course, much more complex than the engine of an auto; nevertheless, it is the power of a living creature, including the human being, just as the engine is the power of the auto. Neuro-science and other disciplines have studied the brain and have learned a great deal about its various parts and how they function together. A skilled mechanic may have studied the engine of the automobile in something of a like manner and knows its mechanical workings to a high degree, but what does he know about the driver of the car which is powered by that engine which he knows and understands. Likewise, the neuro-scientist may know the workings of the brain, even better than the mechanic knows how the engine of the auto functions. But in studying the brain in all of its details, the neuro-scientist appears yet to understand how memory is recalled by a human being. He is still looking at the engine/brain.

To understand the speed of the car as it begins to accelerate, its destination, and the route that it takes, one would have to know something about the driver — his or her habits and objectives. The mechanic may know virtually everything there is to know about the engine without knowing anything about the driver.

In like manner, the neuro-scientist may know a great deal about the functioning of the brain, but she or he has to know something of the mind of the creature, including the human being, to understand the relationship between the mind and the brain. So far, it seems that the neuro-scientist has been concentrating on the three-dimensional engine, to say nothing of the four-dimensional engine in the spacetime continuum.

So metaphorically speaking...
If the brain is the clay that was created by God, and the Holy Spirit is the engine, then Christ would be the driver.

If so be that you let Him have the drivers seat LOL...and without the Holy Spirit then the automobile just sits idle.

Just some thoughts
