One of my research interests has been a group in antiquity with similar attitudes about the mind body divide, including talking about gender with things like “when you make the male and female into a single one so the male isn’t male and the female isn’t female.”
One of my favorite lines about the body is:
If the flesh came into being because of spirit, that is a marvel, but if spirit came into being because of the body, that is a marvel of marvels.
Yet I marvel at how this great wealth has come to dwell in this poverty.
