The heart is the “heart's shin.” If it exists, it's the brain. I'm just thinking about it.

Somehow it feels like it's around my chest, but what I have in my chest is my heart.

We are controlled and driven by what we usually call the “heart,” which has no reality.

Everything I thought about.

The brain also gives instructions to what you think is happy or fun. That's fine, though. That's all

I think that means it's not.

The truth is that it's not in the brain.

Nice to meet you, 1962tron.

Where is the heart?

I also had questions before and did a lot of research.

The medical scientist Hippocrates from the 5th century BC, who is said to be the founder of medicine, said it is in the brain.
The ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle said it was in the chest (heart).
Yogis (yoga practitioners) say that the spirit dwells in Tanda.
Similarly, in Eastern philosophy, it has long been said that the spirit dwells in Tanda.
In the latest medicine, it is said that there are cells with memory fields in the heart, and there are even research results that the organ donor's memory is transferred even when other organs are transplanted, or that even if all of the brains are transplanted to other animals, the original animal's instincts hardly change.

In other words, when it comes to where the heart is, we ordinary people cannot fathom it.
Suffice it to say, I can only say that it's inside me right now.

What is it made of?
Medically speaking, it's probably called an electrical signal, but the conflicting consciousness that compares information with the subconscious mind may be said to be the heart of us ordinary people.

In Buddhism, there is a saying “one body one mind is omnipresent in the Dharma world (one body one mind is omnipresent in the Dharma world).”
It is said that when the Buddha attains enlightenment, this body's consciousness assimilates with everything in this world.

Right now, this heart is struggling, thinking, worrying, and suffering over some things, but in reality, it may be something that cannot fit into the vessel called this body.

Is it calmer than where it is? Are you rich? Isn't that more important?

It's...
Let's know that what we try to understand is also the mind.

With all my heart, I don't have anything to look at
There are only things I can see, hear, and think.

If you keep listening and be heartless again, you'll be yourself, Keriken's Tamasuidomoto Zenji

All living things have hearts.
In Buddhism, gods are living beings.
The gods called Bonten, who don't have bodies (at the level of the colorless world) also have hearts, or rather, Bonten only has hearts.
There are also minds that are separated from matter, so the mind does not necessarily exist in a physical place.
Rather, on the contrary, the material world for life may be within the mind.
Where is matter? If asked, you may be able to answer that it is in your heart.

The question of what the mind is made of seems to assume material materials, but in Buddhism, matter (color) and mind are different things.
The mind is a function of recognition. The characteristic of the mind is that it is impermanent (it occurs moment by moment, then dies and changes).
There may be hints about what the mind is in impermanence and change.
Apart from material phenomena, it is something that changes, and it is the mind that functions to recognize something else.
What is the mind made of? It may also be said that the mind is made of change.

This is Kawaguchi Hidetoshi. This is my humble answer to the question.

The existence of us (humans) is explained in Buddhism as something called “five (five) temporary union.”

The five charms are color, acceptance, thought, action, and shikaku, respectively,

Color: physical body or substance
Reception·Sensitive action
Imagination... the effect of representation
Action... intentional action
Discipline... cognitive function

It will be.

Our existence is only made up of the fact that these various effects are related (auspicious), and there is no such thing as indicating “this is the heart.” In other words, it does not mean that there is or is a mind as an entity (an independent entity that does not change forever and forever).

Therefore, even when it comes to “where is the heart”, it is not something that can be answered “this is it,” and even if it is “what is the heart made of,” it can only be said that it is made up of the five elements described above acting together.

However, it is said that we have something called “fine consciousness” and “light consciousness and mind” that will survive even if some of the five effects of the five senses collapse or stop, such as when the body is destroyed.

For example, in the ideology of wisdom, there are cases where explanations are based on assumptions such as the eighth sense, ayoriya (araya) wisdom, and the ninth sense, amara (amara) wisdom.

To be honest, in order to understand these minute aspects of consciousness and mind, it is necessary to practice meditation and meditation in depth.

Also, what we must be careful about here is that these minute consciousness and minds (including hypotheses) are not made up of substance, self nature, or self-phase, but are made up of good fortune. In other words, just as the eye itself cannot see the eye itself, I think it's okay for you to think that even if there is a hypothetical mind, that hypothetical mind itself cannot know the thing itself (in other words, it may be possible to know it as an auspicious entity).

Furthermore, it is also a place where they are deeply involved in each act, such as karma, karma, karma, karma (practice), and practice (kunju), and I can't say it lightly, but if you are interested, I hope you can advance your studies of Buddhism in depth.
