Isn't it counter-intuitive that the so-called mind prefers to conceptualize the body as something alien to itself even though properly speaking the mind is the body itself?
That is not something that has occurred to me before, but seems correct. I wonder if it's a cultural thing or a consistent property of minds. Either humans have philosophized themselves to shreds, or animals have a concept of soul. Both possible worlds seem odd.
Maybe the real issue is not the mind/body divide but assuming the unity of the mind.

There is a part of mind that is the body as there is a part of body that is the mind.
