Any minimal definition of a mind will stipulate that it is at least composed of ideas, which in the context of this treatise is also to say a mind is composed of definitions, objects, dimensions and architectures.

Our process in this treatise has been two-fold: 1) offer clearly understood, agenda-free definitions, and then 2) apply logical operations to these definitions to assemble new statements. If the presented definitions are comprehensive and generic, and the assembled statements are free of logical errors, then we have effectively shown that ideas, and therefore the collection of ideas we call a mind, are partly or wholly physical objects. We say ideas are "partly or wholly" physical only because they are simultaneously composed of mass, energy and the speed of light, and traditionally physical objects have been loosely considered to be composed of mass only.

Introducing a mind as partly or wholly a physical object embeds it into the same architecture as other objects composed of mass, and effectively resolves the mind-body question. From another viewpoint, both mind and body are composed of energy, therefore mind and body are aspects of each other. Beyond that, both mind and body must "obey" the same physical laws that energy "obeys".

If the Universe is a harmonic network of energy, mass and the constant speed of light, then every object in the Universe is part of that network - every object helps compose that network. By this simple argument, ideas, minds, the human body, physical objects and the human physical senses are all directly or indirectly physically related to each other.
