from
My
Body,
Eduardo
Jose
E.
Calasanz
-
It
is
in
the
nature
of
the
body
(res
extensa)
and
the
mind
(res
cogitans)
to
be
completely
(essenIally)
disInct,
and
it
is
the
cogito,
the
I
think,
that
denes
ones
being
-
However,
man
is
not
really
a
ghost
inside
a
machine,
in
that
(contrary
to
Platos
ship
and
captain
metaphor)
we
are
involved
in
the
experience
of
pain,
as
argued
for
in
the
same
work:
I
am
not
merely
present
in
my
body
as
a
sailor
is
present
in
a
ship,
but
[]
I
am
very
closely
joined,
and,
as
it
were,
intermingled
with
it,
so
that
I
and
the
body
form
a
unit.
(Descartes,
Medita0ons
VI)
[T]hose
who
never
philosophize,
and
who
make
use
only
of
their
senses,
do
not
doubt
that
the
soul
moves
the
body
and
that
the
body
acts
on
the
soul
[].
It
is
in
dealing
only
with
life
and
everyday
aairs,
and
in
refraining
from
studying
and
meditaIng
on
things
which
exercises
the
imaginaIon,
that
we
learn
to
apprehend
the
union
of
the
soul
and
the
body.
(Descartes,
personal
correspondence)
