      • Mind is something very different from the soul. The mind isn't some mystical entity, nor is it an organ such as the eye or the brain. Rather, the mind is a flow of subjective experiences, such as pain, pleasure, anger or love.
      • When reflecting on it, we often try to sort the experiences into different categories, such as sensations, emotions and thoughts, but in reality, they are often all mingled together.
      • "This frenzied collection of experience constitutes the stream of consciousness. Unlike the everlasting soul, the mind has many parts, it constantly changes and there is no reason to think it is eternal."
