That’s one excellent interpretation of mind.

I don’t use the term mind as it has many different definitions and confuses people.

To communicate definitively with psychiatrists,I had to learn an entirely new vocabulary with very specific meanings. They have corrected me many times.

We ran into this semantic problem during a Symposium at the University on the Neuroscience of Psychotherapy. Psychologists seldom know neuroscience, or neurobiology which is pretty much understanding neurotransmitters, hormones, and pharmaceuticals.

Feelings are difficult to quantify scientifically.
