There is more wisdom in my body than in my deepest filosofy ❤

The way I figured it, too often "mind" would think up alternative realities instead of just paying attention to what was actually happen! some sort of self-serving pseudo philosophy? ;-)

Is the mind in the body or is the body in the mind? Is the mind in the Brain or is the Brain in the mind?

#Supervenience ... I'm not kidding! _"The hard question of consciousness"_ seems to be like some riddle inside a paradox. I can only think that "mind" is us being at least slightly aware of what brain (and body) are producing.

I would say they are both the same thing since they affect each other. our body influence our brain, and vice versa. Both can't exist without the other.

@@MajiDreamer-pe6tg I appreciate your thinking, but I don't think you appreciate words and terms enough to serve you. What affects one another ... well ... they then aren't the same. Some deep relationship? Absolutely! And there's the wonder. So, are these two "the same in some way"? uhhh ... I'm stumped. The way they are the two different is what gives them to, as you write, affect one another. Dandy stuff, yaa? _is why we got up with _*_abhidharma!_*

@@BenTrem42 Thank you for your thoughts but I think just because 2 things are different doesn't mean they aren't the same thing. 2 sides of a coin is different but nevertheless they're still a same coin that we try to divide into 2 things. If they'rent a same thing, then it doesn't matter if we change one of the face, but changing one face will ultimately makes the coin different from the first one. It's the same with body and mind. It's actually a same thing but we just try to divide it into two things. Changing someone's brain would change the way their body behave and vice versa, you just can't isolate them at all because it is a same thing. We could say the same with the universe, our universe is one, but we as human just likes to name things that's why we think each part is different from one another, when actually everything is connected and the way we like to isolate something by naming it is just an illusion human made.

@@MajiDreamer-pe6tg I'm afraid you the way you're using definitions here just leaves things muddled. Elephants and eggs ... the same thing? No, different. *_But they're both objects!_* Yes, they share characteristics, so there are similarities. Does that make them the same? Perhaps, for you, "yes" would be a good answer. For me? merely perverse. #Lateral - Whether fiction/fantasy or magical thinking _(maji dreaming?)_ I see that as equivalent, with those two very similar: both rabbit holes mind can fall into. _ciao_ _Addendum:_ Maybe I should have used *_snake / piece of rope_* rather than elephant / egg. The similarities that they share _don't make them _*_the same!_* (Interesting how mistaking them as the same causes real problems in the moment.)
