It may be helpful to explore your statement here. Is it truly accurate? It is fundamental to a perspective on life, so it's no small matter.Adi wrote: I was born with a body and a brain that produces a mind.
1. Is 'a mind' the same as consciousness or awareness?
2. Could mind just be a function of consciousness - that is having the capacity to think within the broader field of awareness?
3. Isn't it a belief that the brain produces a mind, and even the science on it is yet uncertain as to the origin of consciousness. Could there be more to it than brain chemistry?
4. Could the brain be a kind of perspective creating mechanism within conscious awareness? That is the brain stores experiences over the course of a lifetime and develops a world view based on those experiences and offering consciousness a unique opportunity through which to perceive human life.
I'm not asking you for your answers here, only suggesting possibilities to consider and explore.
