I wonder if you can have a mind independent from a brain

I guess we'll all find out one day

If a mind is "just a brain," then what do they mean when they talk about "THE MIND?"

People are always referring to THE MIND as if it were one thing or one concept.

But others insist that "a mind" is just a brain and everyone has a separate mind which arises from the brain.

If a mind is "just a brain," then what do they mean when they talk about "THE MIND?"we make a tremendous distinction between matter and mind, we think that mind is entirely different than matter actually they are one nature.half of which is continually working on the other.matter is pressing on the mind in the form of various sensations.these sensations are nothing but force.the force from the outside evokes the force within.from the will to respond to or get away from the outer force, the inner force becomes what we call thought. both matter and mind are really nothing but forces.matter is changed into mind and mind into matter, thought force becomes nerve force, nerve force becomes muscle force. the difference between the subtlest mind and the grossest matter is only a matter of degree. I like to think of the mind as the interface between spirit and world,even though the two are actually one and the same it is a good annology when looking through the illusion of maya.
