    Most of us use “mind” to refer to intellect. The thing we think with, where all the ideas are.

    But the Buddhists are referring to your “attention”. Like a flashlight, you direct it at stuff. Sights, sounds, thoughts, etc.

    That’s 2 quite different things. “Open your mind” is a different thing there.
