Danilo loses consciousness?....
We are our consciousness, our mind/soul?...........NOT just the physical.
   
  Is this a clue about other "disappearances" in AtD???...
   
  We lose (our) consciousness?....we 'go elsewhere' as in notions of astral projection?

  According to the phasing model, defined mainly by Robert Monroe, no "movement" actually occurs during astral projection. The astral planes and the physical world are points on the spectrum of consciousness. When a person projects, they actually "phase" into another area of consciousness and the locales it contains. This can be likened to tuning a radio to another station. The phasing model does not say that the mind is dependent on the brain, but only that our concepts of space do not necessarily apply to astral travel.[8][9]

    Dr. Robert Crookall published case studies of astral projection in 1960. He divided these into naturally-occurring out-of-the-body experiences (people who nearly died, people who were very ill, people who were exhausted, etc, and people who were quite well) and enforced OBEs, from anaesthesia, suffocation, accidents and hypnosis.[24]  wikipedia
