When we think of humans, we think of a body that has brain that tells it what to do. Essentially our body is a car and the brain is the driver. So now what if we think of the body as a separate piece, and the brain as a separate piece. Which one is more valuable or which one has more power. When someone decides to start running, the brain sends signals to the legs to start moving faster and in rhythm. But say you touch your finger to a hot stove, there are signals that are sent from your fingers to your brain that THEN tell your body to remove your finger from the stove. So is it really possible to consider the body and the mind two different objects working on the same project, a project called life? Or are the body and mind the same thing just two components that are combined together to complete the picture.
