Please enlighten further on the difference between “mind” and “consciousness”. To my mundane unenlightened understanding so far, our mind is one of the 6 senses and conventionally the 6th sense. Physically, all the other senses have a base i.e seeing = eye (base) hearing = ear (base) touching = body (base) so on. Where is the base for mind? Understood that mind is where we put our attention on but intrinsically, where is the base for mind since it is one of the 6 senses. Consciousness is one of the khandas, so does that mean it does not belong to the mind? Very confused. Please elaborate the mind vs consciousness (are they the same?). Sadhu to you.
