Balinese and Ilongot conception of emotion

From How Emotions Are Made
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Chapter 13 endnote 1, from How Emotions are Made: The Secret Life of the Brain by Lisa Feldman Barrett.
Some context is:

Balinese and Ilongot cultures, and to a certain extent cultures guided by Buddhist philosophy, do not make hard distinctions between thinking and feeling.

Balinese culture[1] and Ilongot culture in the Philippines[2] have words for mental activity that are best translated as “thought-feeling.”[3] This translation better represents Buddhist conceptualizations of mental activity as well.[4][5]
