We cannot imprison the mind in the brain. The mind is in every cell 0f our body and also extends into the whole universe
Deepak Chopra

There are, as one would expect, all sorts of reasons why7 we abandon our bodies, and why we now fear to reclaim them...On a superficial level, we refuse to reclaim the body because we just don't think there is any reason to - it seems to be a big to-do about nothing. On a deeper level, we fear to reclaim the body because it houses, in a particular vivid and living form, strong emotions and feelings, which are socially taboo. And, ultimately, the body is avoided because it is the abode of death.
Ken Wilber

The sun shines not on us but in us. The rivers flow not pas5t but though us, thrilling, tingling, vibrating every fiber and cell of the substance of our bodies, making them slide and sing.
John Muir
