This is not an aspect of the mind. It is an aspect of something the mind is aware of.
The information content of mind, what the mind is aware of, is inseparable from the from what the mind is and what the mind does, its funnction.
The evolved function of the brain is to enable conscious representation/awareness of the external world and the benefits that awareness provides the organism.
That it is the brain that forms mind from its information base, and that awareness is specific to the brain and its senses, shows that the brain is not a receiver tuned to some undefinable, non detectable entity called 'mind'. Duality was rejected long ago.
The mind is that which is aware. Not the "objects" it is aware of.
It is both: the mechanism/apparatus that enables awareness and macro scale matter/energy structures and their relationships (people, houses, tees, animals, mountains, etc0 which mind/brain is able to be aware of according to the nature of the senses and processing...some animals see further into the UV spectrum and so on.
And consciousness, when awake, is an unbroken whole and very static and durable during a lifetime. It is incredibly unlikely this can be generated by some "pattern" that must be repeated over and over non-stop.
Consciousness is not a single entity, it is composed of many features, some may break down while others remain functional, attention is very focused and varies constantly, as does self awareness. You need to brush up on the actual research.
Since what the mind is is completely unknown this cannot be ruled out.
There it is again - 'completely unknown' - is false. We know that mind entails the ability to see, hear, feel, think, decide, act cosciously etc....this is not a case of nothing is known (completely unknown). Something is known.
You may as well say, because we essentially don't know what matter/energy is, atoms does not tell us, vibrating strings does not tell us, we don't know anything about physics, the world, the universe or anything composed of stuff, matter/energy, we know nothing about.
Which is not true, because we do not essentially know what matter/energy is does not mean that we know nothing about its characteristics or how it behaves, or to make use of it.
When you damage the receiver the reception is disrupted.
This is not different from concluding the brain generates the mind based on the fact that damage to the brain disrupts generation.
And of course there is evidence.
When you damage the receiver the reception is disrupted.
This is not different from concluding the brain generates the mind based on the fact that damage to the brain disrupts generation.
You need to show evidence for the presence of a transmitter of mind before you claim that the brain is receiver. As it is, there is nothing to suggest that mind is being beamed to all the brains on the planet...with each brain receiving just the type of information it needs to negotiate the objects and events of its environment.
It's absurd.
