THE NATURE OF MIND
Sir-I am gfateful to you for the note you inserted in answer to "R.J.T.," of Auckland. An authoritative definition of these words cannot be given, because as yet there is no agreément upon these matters. On the other hand, "R.J.T." is entitled to ask me what meaning I attach to words I use in the broadcasts. If that is what he seeks, I answer’ as follows: On each occasion that I used the word "mind," the word "soul" could be substituted, but the words "intellect,"
"thinking.- principle," "conscidusness," etc., could ‘not; and certainly not the word. "brain." I cannot think that "R.J.T." would seriously expect me im a correspondence column fo discuss the question of the relationship of "mind" and "soul" to "brain." .
