Your bio says you're a Buddhist, so I'm curious about your take on this.
Are there Buddhist teachings on mind that you're aware of? Would there be an orthodox Buddhist answer to the question you pose in the OP?
I was a Buddhist. Now I’m an Athiest. We were said to believe that the mind is something like a soul which finds a human when they are born. And it goes to someone else when we die. Most of the humans personally, traits come from the soul or whatever energy that is. Maybe Because consciousness cannot be explained.
I don’t believe in rebirth or souls since you asked Buddhist view. I was just asking this because if someone asks flesh and blood come from parents and mind comes from somewhere else , how to answer that question
