Emotion or Feeling is the expression of inner feelings in a human being. The Theory of Evolution has no explanation for the wide range of human emotions, as even Charles Darwin admitted.
Some of the higher animals also display emotion, such as the joyful playfulness or mournful lonely cries of canines like dogs and wolves.
Emotions are the sometimes irrational counter to the supposedly more rational left side of the brain, but are usually more powerful.[Citation Needed]

Feelings or sensations, called Vedana in Sanskrit is the second of the Five aggregates in Buddhist philosophy of mind.
