'''Mind''' refers to the collective aspects of [[intellect]] and [[consciousness]] which are manifest in some combination of [[thought]], [[perception]], [[emotion]], will and [[imagination]]. Mind can be defined as the stream of consciousness. It is defined as all processes of consciousness, including both conscious awareness and the [[sub-conscious]] (sub-conscious mind rather than the self-contradictory term '[[unconscious mind]]'). "Mind" is collectively all classes of consciousness as experienced through each sense sphere, including [[cognitive]] consciousness. Sometimes the word mind can refer specifically to cognitive consciousness.

There are many theories of what the mind is and how it works, dating back to [[Plato]], [[Aristotle]], [[Adi Shankara]], [[Siddhārtha Gautama]], and other Ancient Greek and Indian [[philosophers]]. Pre-scientific theories, which were rooted in [[theology]], concentrated on the relationship between the mind and the [[soul]], the supposed [[supernatural]], [[divine]] or God-given essence of the [[human]] [[person]]. Modern theories, based on a scientific understanding of the [[brain]], see the mind as a [[phenomenon]] of [[psychology]], and the term is often used more or less synonymously with consciousness.
