抄録 | Yogācāra philosophy seems to be in contradiction with modern science in terms of the base of the mind. The former says the base of the Six Consciousness (mano vijñāna) is the Seventh Consciousness (mana vijñāna), while the latter seems to indicate that the mind has a lot to do with the brain. In order to give a proper explanation on this contradiction, this research tries to study the relationship between the brain and the base of the mind from both the early Buddhist texts and the discoveries of modern science. The fi ndings of this study show that the brain is actually not mentioned in early Buddhist texts as the base of the mind, and modern science cannot offer suffi cient proof to show that the brain is essential to the function of the mind. Finally, the explanation on the proposed contraction is given from the perspective of Yogācāra Buddhism claiming that the brain is not the base of mind rather a kind of tool assisting in the function of the mind. |
