location of the brain is clear — it is inside our head, encased by the skull. The brain is the centre of all neural activity, giving out commands and receiving electrical and chemical signals from and to different parts of the body, as well as from external stimuli. But no one knows, yet, where the mind is located, although memories are stored in the brain and thoughts are generated from this organ. Over and above the physical brain, there is mind, which is non-fungible. Writing for Templeton Ideas, Stephen Law says that the mind's inner landscape appears to be inaccessible to others. 'No one else can enter my mind and access my thoughts and feelings along with me. Rather, they must infer how things are with me from observation of my outward behaviour.' He goes on to say that therefore, we each live out our lives in solitary confinement. Similarly, every other individual's landscape of the mind is their own private world. Just as others cannot enter your world, so, too, you cannot enter their minds, their inner worlds. Even if we try to put ourselves in their shoes, as the saying goes, it is impossible to experience their innermost experiences and thoughts.

individual transformation, talking about world peace is just one more form of entertainment. Without attending to individuals, trying to bring about a change in the world always leads to more problems. If there are no peaceful human beings, there is no peaceful world. Today, the world's focus is on economics. Since the planet's resources are limited and our lives are driven by the engine of economics, war is inevitable. Unless subtler aspects of life become important, peace remains a dream. Any destruction of life, beyond the need for one's survival, is violence. Religion and quarrelling cannot go together. Somewhere, we have lost the basic sense of what religion is. True religion is an inward step. But, today, it has become only about belonging to this or that group. This has only brought hatred, conflict and separation among people. What the world needs is not more religions or more followers, but people committed to becoming peaceful themselves.
