Physical and Spiritual Body Anatomy

Order of Abstractions of the Physical Body

  1. Space (the container for everything)
  2. Points (ends of bones)
  3. Lines (bones)
  4. Angles (joint positions)
  5. Forces (muscle tensions)
  6. Energies
    1. muscles in motion
    2. emotions in motion
    3. thoughts in motion

Jumping from 5 to 1 (feeling emotional --> experiencing yourself as points) helps during activities to get yourself out of the emotion loop.
Slowing down to feel the energies during quiet times helps get back into the emotion loop.

My Spiritual Body differs from my physical body because I can't feel it as clearly. Here are some possible parts.

Spiritual 'Arms and Hands'
  shoulder upper arm lower arm hand comment
in my physical head ball-and-socket joint allows for 360 deg x 360 deg positioning of arm triceps extend (eg: 'I did something good.'); biceps retract (eg: 'No, I did not do something good.') must exist, otherwise I could not 'punch' can punch (fist), pull (opposable thumb), touch, draw

My head has only one spiritual arm (I can 'think about' one thing at a time.)

My head's spiritual arm can reach outside my body, but it's harder to marnipulate things out here.
in my physical body         I can trace two paths simultaneously in my body, therefore I must have two spiritual arms in here.
outside my physical body my wood-and-concrete house is like a body   my 'arm' reaches only as far as I can go and return my physical body is like a hand: I grab things from the outside world and bring them into my house  
organism-environment as one spiritual body   my spiritual arm is like a tricep, the environment has a bicep which can pull my spiritual arm back in. Example: I want to do something, but the environment gives me signals to stop me.      

The Noble Truth of Suffering analyzed by Physics and Spiritual Anatomy

  1. life is suffering
  2. suffering is proportional to desire
  3. desire is a tension
    1. caveat: coherence is like a tension, yet you must have coherence
  4. a tension is two opposing forces
  5. in the body, variable voluntary tension is made through skeletal muscles
  6. a spiritual muscle has an origin, body, and attachment
    1. you hold the origin (it is attached near the physical muscles)
    2. the spiritual muscle body seems invisible but feels filled with emotion
    3. the attachment looks like an icon (a picture of 'what you want')
