| Abstract | As is well-known，the term "mind" in Buddhism and Taoism is really mind/heart -- while "Busshin" is Buddha mind，it is also Great Compassion. The article argues that the mind/heart of "mind" should be seen as analogous to the particle/wave of light：in the same way that seeing light only as a particle is at best incomplete，and perhaps even misleading，assuming that the Buddhist and Taoism mind/heart operates only according to the logic and rules governing the thinking process create serious problems. To clarify the analogy for the purposes of this paper，particles are to thoughts or the mind as waves are to affect，emotion or the heart. While particles and thoughts operate on the digital or binary logic of differences in kind -- a logic of the mind -- waves and affect or emotion operate on the analog or alchemical logic of differences of degree -- a logic of the heart. |
