I defined mind in the definitions section...
I Wrote:Mind- simply that which produces consciousness. you can think of it as a product of material interactions or its own substance, but either way it cannot be denied mind exists.
now if you're accusing me of equivocation, then I'll have to ask exactly where I'm equivocating and how I'm equivocating (how my definitions or use of the terms are different).
Your definition in the definitions section does not specify any further properties, is therefore empty, almost tautological. You could equally have said "The mind is the mind" and would not have said less. It is the specification of those properties that make the concept meaningful which I was actually referring to.
