(H.1) The subjective nimbusof
mind and objective matter of our brain are
inseparably conjoined in all experiences, both conscious
and unconscious,is what we shall call the state ofmindfulness.
(H.2) Mattercan exist without a presence of mindbut
mind cannot exist without presence of matterin
the physical form of a brain.
(H.3) Mind being a phenomena, the
nature and manner of of mindfulness is
currently unknownto unus But
enough knowledge has been obtained to know the causes that
results in the effect of it.
(H.4) The existence of a electrochemical correspondence between mind and
matter that often results in action, thought,
or emotion in a sentient thingis known,
thus giving rise to observation and knowledgeof the
inability to disjoin mind and matter.
(H.5) The most fundamental correspondence between mindand
matter is awareness and action.
The presence of consciousness in themind need
not be present for action but awareness must
be.
(H.6) The correspondence between mind and matter resulting
in the sensations of the many emotion prompted
by sensory inputs first appeared with the evolution of the
limbic system of brain cells that sits atop the more primitive brain
stem. Your dog hides in the bathtub when the emotion of
fear is prompted by the sound of thunder and sensing of electricity in the air.
Thoughtis not necessary for a response to sensory
inputs creating subjective emotions.
(H.7) The correspondence between mind and matter resulting
in mindful thought arose with the evolution of
cerebral cortex, the outer layer of neural tissue of the cerebellum of the brain
in humans and other mammals. The use of mindful thought to
induce an action we shall call reasoning.
(H.8) The mental processes in the brain generating mindfulness are
numerous and widely spread throughout the brain.
(H.8.1) Mindfulness incorporates
consciousness, perception, awareness,
sensation, emotions, qualia, memory,
thought, and reasoning, none of which are an
objective material aspect of reality itself
but all of which generated by physical processes in the material aspect
of reality and all of which can be experienced by
the material brain. But none of them can be contained
in a bottle.
(H) The state of mindfulness is the result of mental processes in the brain resulting from awareness by the living entity of its environment. Mindfulness provides the link between mind and brain for awareness and action. Consciousness is not the progenitor ofmindfulness but rather is the product of it.
