I could not care less about the mind/body problem, as it is traditionally understood. Of course this is to put it very strongly.
Do not get me wrong, I have considerable interest in the mind/body problem, which has the interpretation of a "mind/body as perceived or lived by mind" problem. Simply put, my version of mind/body problem, following the phenomenologists, is a mind/mind problem. If for the materialists, it is only a body/body problem.
The problem of my interest in this problem is: I have to explain why I do not care about the traditional mind/body problem, and worse still, what is exactly the "mind/lived body" problem.
