Arimi-sama
Each of the five elements is color (matter/body), reception (sensory/sensory action), thought (expression/conceptual action), action (intention/volition), and consciousness (awareness/cognitive action), and our existence is made up of the five elements that are hypothetically assembled by causation (cause and condition) (hypothetical union of the five elements).
However, there is nothing that can indicate and say which of the five pillars is oneself or which is oneself, and “self” is a “sky” that does not form an entity.
“The power to link as “mine”...
Me, or mine, means “stubbornness,” and the root cause of that stubbornness is “ignorance,” as Gan Eon Kiyoshi has already said.
As a simple example, ignorance is a cancer cell, and cancer cells (ignorance) damage the function of various organs, and various painful symptoms (afflictions) occur. However, if cancer cells, which are the root of this, can be removed by direct surgery (Buddhist practice), various painful symptoms (afflictions) will not occur. However, if you don't do anything about the cause of the cancer cells (ignorance) to recur and proliferate, they will be invaded by cancer again. Examples include bad lifestyle habits (eating habits, smoking, stress, etc.). By improving the underlying factors that cause these cancer cells (further training), you will no longer get cancer, and you will be able to spend your time with peace of mind.
In this example, if cancer cells are “affliction disorder,” fundamental factors such as bad lifestyle habits are called “intellectual disability.”
“The ability to personally own experiences”...
In terms of experience and Buddhism, it is karma through action, but in terms of mental inheritance (continuum of mind), I think it can be said that it is something you own for the time being.
However, this karma is also something that is inherited due to complex causal relationships between karma and karma in various acts, and it does not exist as an entity, and it is something called “emptiness” made up of “luck.”
The state of people with dementia/dementia, or babies is “unreasonable,” and the view that it is a state of “enlightenment” does not support at all. In that case, there is simply a problem with brain function, and I believe that unless affliction disorder or intellectual disability as a deep mental inheritance problem is eradicated, it will not become a state that can be called “enlightenment.”
