Where did the term monkey mind come from?
The idea of the monkey mind comes from Buddhism.
The term has been adopted by yogis to describe a mind that jumps from thought to thought as a monkey jumps from tree to tree.
The monkey mind cannot exist in the present moment, but rather is constantly distracted by the thoughts that pass through.
