"It is true that it feels very differently to enjoy a good meal, taking part in an interesting conversation, or to think of how successful your children are. Suppose we do all these things at a particular time. How happy are we at the time? We do not need to calculate the value of each such feelings on any singular scale to answer this question.

“Itâ€™s not the body that people love, but the soul. The body is a temporary vehicle. Without the soul, the body is like a car without a driver.

Who is the witness, enjoyer and sufferer that activates my body?”
