The people who think they own this world and their callousness want to grind you down to bonemeal to fertilize the death machine. Don't let them. Do not let them.
It starts with the pernicious idea that you own your body. You do not. That just shows how closely ownership and mind/body dualism are intertwined. That is the pure idealism of spirit excerting will over an object. You are not an object to be owned. You are your body and the space it takes up is you. It is what you get. You will never get more or less than this. Take comfort in that.
@AnarchoWalrus
would you say we're stewards for our bodies?
@johnbrowntypeface
No actually, because I think that this way of thinking about it also separates the body from something doing the stewarding.

@AnarchoWalrus
i guess my perspective is that there's a separation which is also a oneness

probably contradictory, ha

but just like to look at things on their own terms while acknowledging that there's really no separation

@johnbrowntypeface
I think I agree, but in general I do see that the oneness frequently gets completely forgotten in favor of the category.
