>>27153019The self can never correspond to true fact, to true reality, and our only means of improving our own relationship to the body and the soul is through fixing their interpretive meaning. As a result of this, I must deduce that if both the body and the soul are phenomenal entities, and that a soul is only constructed by means of psychical events- which cannot be inherently bonded in continuity, nor can it create any primary instincts or proclivities- and our present temporal and special relationship to them, then the soul cannot possibly independent of the body.
By its phenomenal nature, it must be merely an additional, metaphysical feature of the body, just as confused as the body is in regards to our current interpretation of it.
