The spirit desires to remain with its body, because, without the organic instruments of that body, it can neither act, nor feel anything.

You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.

Your naked body should only belong to those who fall in love with your naked soul.

Blake said that the body was the soul's prison unless the five senses are fully developed and open. He considered the senses the 'windows of the soul.'

Inside the walls of a prison my body may be, but my Lord has set my soul free.

As long as your body is healthy and under control and death is distant, try to save your soul; when death is immanent what can you do?
