Paul Brunton Philosophic Foundation homepage > Notebooks of Paul Brunton



The body does not function blindly like some machine. On the contrary, it is an expression of the divine wisdom and the divine power, which are taking care of every cell within it from head to toe. If the personal ego, with its materialistic ignorance and blind desires, did not wilfully or unknowingly interfere with the body's natural operation in health and in sickness, we would have much less trouble with it. Even so, despite the constant interference of the ego, the body is still a remarkable tribute to the wisdom and power inherent within it.
