A Buddhist Concept of Mind and its Location
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
“What is mind and where is it located?” Whilst the question is rather simple in form, to answer it begs a profundity and insightfulness, which was immensely wide yet simple. It is therefore a breath-taking and daunting task to answer, which has been philosophically debated in the East and West for centuries. The philosophical and spiritual value of the question may have been deep or quintessential, it would not be possible to illustrate and explore this deep and fundamental aspects here, but rather intends to closer look and understand the concept of the mind and its location in Buddhism, including some western thought on the concept of mind, which is one of the important factors for the cultivation of mind until to achieve liberation.
