A MORE EXPRESSIVE CITATION FROM THE BIG TYPESCRIPT AS THE CORE TEXT OF “MIDDLE WITTGENSTEIN” :
BT p. 365e Memory-time. It(like visual space)is not a part of time in the larger sense but is the specific order of events or situations in memory. In this time there is no future for instance visual and physical space, memory-time and physical time are not related to each other as a section of the series of cardinal numbers is to the law of this series of 6 the entire number series"),but ather as the system of cardinal numbers is to that of the rational numbers And this relationship also makes sense of the idea that the one space encloses contains the other one
BT p. 365e • Memory-time. It (like visual space) is not a part of time in the larger sense, but is the specific order of events or situations in memory. In this time there is no future, for instance; visual and physical space, memory-time and physical time are not related to each other as a section of the series of cardinal numbers is to the law of this series (“of 6 the entire number series”), but rather as the system of cardinal numbers is to that of the rational numbers. • And this relationship also makes sense of the idea that the one space encloses, contains, the other one
This citation implies that 1. The physical space embraces the phenomenal one 2. The former embraces the latter in the sense that the system of cardinal numbers embraces that of the rational numbers 3(2) implies that the phenomenal and the physical are just the results of viewing the same stuff from two different aspects

It is really hard to find a proper position in the conceptual map of contemporary philosophy of mind for accommodating Wittgenstein's view on the mind-body problem!!!
