What is it we wish to communicate to whom, when, how, and why?




Perceiving the body as a separate entity cannot but foster illness, because it is not true. A medium of communication loses its usefulness if it is used for anything else. To use a medium of communication as a medium of attack is an obvious confusion in purpose.T-8.VII.11:4-6


A Course in Miracles (p. 300). Foundation for Inner Peace. Kindle Edition. 


Jesus, in A Course Of Miracles, teaches that the body other than a means of communication is an illusion. The body is constantly changing throughout the life cycle. Identification of the self with the body leads to confusion if not depression and anxiety.


In Unitarian Universalism some of us join together to affirm and promote the inherent worth and dignity of every person. This worth and dignity does not arise from the body but from the mind which can continually develop and extend itself to others in communion.


Today it is suggested that we consider the body as a vehicle of communication. What is it we wish to communicate to whom, when, how, and why?
