That's Eastern philosophy for you.
I would say MIND is the by product of the physical stature of a living creature, and BEING is self awareness, there is no other hand.
It is not question of eastern or western. It is question of approaching factual reality.

Mind can never be only by product of the physical stature of a living creature, since there is a hairline difference between a living and a dead creature. Brain functions due to ample blood supply from heart and heart functions due to proper nervous function of the brain. Which of the two starts initiating, nobody till has known. If you feel there is no third party involved that is your choice to be away from the reality. But go and see literature on reincarnation and memories from past lives, you would get an idea of third THAT party, the metaphysical mind and super consciousness SELF, which have carried forward past memories of physical mind to next physical brain/body.

Again BEING is self awareness of whom ??? That whom is the real BEING !!!

So, there is other hand, which is metaphysical. to repeat

A bad , bad hypothesis
Give few redings to understand my logic that I put forth the hypothesis before hastly terming it bad.

What you said about brain of human or animals is what is now established. Plant consciousness and its mind is not yet even to be imagined so it too early to mention my hypothesis bad or good. Please just ty to understand what is my point I have mentioned therein. Let me reat for your ready reference:

Living animals die when head (brain) is cut but not when other parts are cut. Same way plant dies when roots are cut but when other parts are cut. S I deduce plant's bain must lie in the roots.
