Grammar note

While body refers to the organism of a living being in the biological sense, the term body has various other connotations (the physicality that goes beyond physicality) ease in a religious context is understood by the combination of body and soul in humans, i.e. the soulful body . In philosophy, a self -referential can be understood under body, i.e. around itself knowing or related body. In most foreign languages, this distinction cannot be reproduced directly.
