The brain can´t formulate or understand that which is the total, the whole, the complete

The brain is the centre for all the senses; the more the senses are awake and sensitive, the sharper is the brain.

The brain is a storehouse of experience, knowledge and tradition.

Therefore, it is historical limited, conditional.

Its activities are planned, thought out, but it functions in historical limitation, in time and space.

Therefore, it can´t formulate or understand that which is the total, the whole, the complete.

When things are connected with existential necessity they take unnatural forms

The natural needs of our senses have their place, and when you understand them, they don't take the unnatural forms, which they get when they are connected with existential necessity; that is to say: a self-made necessity in order to be able to be alive, to exist, and to have an identity.

When the mind seeks to control the body, and suppress the senses, the body is made insensitive

The mind not should seek to control the body.

The mind can perhaps control the body, and suppress the senses, but thereby the mind makes the body insensitive; and an insensitive body becomes a hindrance for the own full unfolding of the mind.

To restrain the body certainly doesn´t serve the investigation of the deeper layers of consciousness.

This is only possible when there doesn't exist a conflict between the mind, the feelings and the body.

It is only possible when they are complete, and in mutual harmony, and are this in an effortless way, without becoming drifted to it by some specific images of life, a particular conception, belief or ideal.
