How mind and body interact?
Mind can't arise from matter, right? So, how they can interact with each other? What binds mind and body together?
May all beings be free from suffering and causes of suffering

This is a dilemma that has to arise from viewing mind and body dualistically. Such a view has many uses, even though it is incorrect at the root.pael wrote:Mind can't arise from matter, right? So, how they can interact with each other? What binds mind and body together?

I think that in Buddhist terms the question is akin to asking "what causes the five skandhas to bind together/aggregate?"
In the twelvefold chain, the five skandhas become "namarupa." So what binds the nama to the rupa, and why did the Buddha present them as one term?
