Message: <blockquote data-quote="Topophobia" data-source="post: 12341862" data-attributes="member: 378818">By the way, if there is a mind, it should interact with the body. But, if mind is something other than the body, how such interaction, such commerce, actually happen? Body is a physical thing that has the same building blocks any unconscious entity has. On the other hand, mind is supposed to be something ontologically different from the stuff that made up the body. Any massage our sense organs receive from the external world is in the form of energy. Our eyes capture energy of light, for example. However, if the massages our eyes receive are somehow transmitted to consciousness, then where does that original light energy go? They should enter the mind, the consciousness, for us to have the experiences of things in the world, say, the redness of an apple for example. However, if our consciousness is something non-physical, then it means that the energy that enters into consciousness is somehow vanished. But, this is impossible for it violates fundamental physics, which says that energy can not be destroyed or created.</blockquote>
