One of the earliest lessons I was taught by my father was that Buddhists don't see the mind as a discrete entity, but rather as a perpetually unfolding experience.
Sashin's notes
The mind is a verb, not a noun. It is a process, not an entity. It is a happening[1].
Even this is an approximation, it seems that the mind cannot be perfectly or even very accurately described in words. ↩︎
