No degree of mentalities capture “mind” as such, except as a conceptualization of that degree (comprehensiveness of comprehension). Yet, normally, ‘mind’ has ethereal meaning modeled on notions of substance (as if “mind” is trans-material homeostasis or active homogeny). Even comprehensive comprehensions are mis-served by spiritualized notions of “mindfulness.” To be mental is a feature of a mentality. Mental events (those manageable abstractions from mentalities which neurophilosophers favor) trope activites of an individuated reality of not-homeostatic minding. The genesis of “mind” in one’s life was always a futural engagement of learnability that wants to enhance itself (and isn’t early-on interested in where Self has been). Minding is of engaged Self. Indeed, the selfidentical feeling in considering mind as such is always selfidentifying. “Mind” is usually a trans-substantiated (dis-embodied) concept of Self. So, mental is to mentality as “mind”[ing] is to mindality. My notion of mindality anticipates a mindfulness that is merely troped by spiritualized notions. The ontogeny of mind—being mindal—is profoundly elusive to innatist inquiry. As I showed years ago, “innateness is moot.” next—> intelligence
