Teachings Drawn from This Section

  1. Body. Late in the Text: if Christ does not inhabit a body, you are not located in one. The body has no independent will, no judgment, no capacity to decide between love and fear. To punish the body is like berating a puppet for the script you wrote. Hidden bargains with form—fatigue, sickness, desire used as excuses for withdrawal—are exposed.
