How do the Brain and Mind differ?
It is important to realize that the brain and the mind are not the same at all. The brain is an organic, physical part of your being. Specific tests of its condition and activity are directly available by technological means. Numerous treatment options exist.
The Mind has no demonstrable physical existence! We know its influence primarily through its own assertions. We infer that it is a semi-coherent energy field which interacts profoundly with the brain – but by means mostly unclear and speculative. “Treatments” for the mind are by means of or actually dependent upon the brain and the body as agents.
