>>Another view is that a human being is a spiritual being running a mind and a body complex.<<
That may be a view, but it is in no way scientific.
A brain is a body part.
A mind is a philosophical construct. I don't believe in the mind as an existential thing any more than I believe Karma, the Id or the Ego.
But all are useful words to describe small portions of much more complex ideas.
