There are primitive thinkers like Peter Holmes who do not believe the mind exists as a real thing based on his ideology of illusory things re Philosophical Realism of independence.
This, for PH is to avoid the phobia of the a mind as a soul that is absolutely independent from the body thus can survive physical death as claim by Descartes.
Peter Holmes claimed whatever is regarded as mental actions are confined to brain activities, there is no mind in relation to these mental actions.
But the point is, a corpse and a person in coma also has an anatomical brain, but these brain cannot perform mental actions, like writing a book, composing songs & poetry, arts, sports, be moral competent, has feelings, qualia, etc.
As such, there must some thing that drives the brain to perform the above mental actions, and this thing is general assign the label 'mind' [it can be any other name, it is still that rose].
So, if there is no FSK-ed brain, there is no FSK-ed mind; we need brain for there to be a mind but the mind is not 100% brain anatomically.
A real FSK-ed mind exists and must grounded [or supervene] upon a physical brain but the mind is also extended to other parts of the body.
This is the EMBODIED MIND.
The Embodied Mind enables the human based Embodied Cognitive Science FSK.
The FSK-ed Embodied Mind is fundamental to FSK-ed objective Morality.Embodied cognition [driven by an Embodied Mind] is the theory that many features of cognition, whether human or otherwise, are shaped by aspects of an organism's entire body.
Sensory and motor systems are seen as fundamentally integrated with cognitive processing. The cognitive features include high-level mental constructs (such as concepts and categories) and performance on various cognitive tasks (such as reasoning or judgment). The bodily aspects involve the motor system, the perceptual system, the bodily interactions with the environment (situatedness), and the assumptions about the world built into the organism's functional structure.
The embodied mind thesis challenges other theories, such as cognitivism, computationalism, and Cartesian dualism.[1][2]
It is closely related to the extended mind thesis, situated cognition, and enactivism.
The modern version depends on insights drawn from up to date research in psychology, linguistics, cognitive science, dynamical systems, artificial intelligence, robotics, animal cognition, plant cognition, and neurobiology.
