Excerpt from: Pharmacy for the Soul, Chapter 1
"If you become aware of all the functions of your body, you will be surprised. You have never thought about what your body has been doing. It is so miraculous, so mysterious. But you have never looked into it. You have never bothered to become acquainted with your own body – and you pretend to love other people? You cannot, because those other people also appear to you as bodies.
The body is the greatest mystery in the whole of existence. This mystery needs to be loved – its mysteries and its functioning need to be intimately inquired into." Osho
