Human Vehicle - a photo on Flickriver

Human Vehicle

            There is a difference between the car and the driver, and therefore drivers’ needs are also different from her cars’. Similarly, the material body and its driver - the spirit self - are different, and as a driver cannot achieve satisfaction by eating petrol or drinking oil, the real self can’t be satisfied with any type of material stimulation. That doesn’t mean, however, that we should neglect our body. Just as we take care of our car because we have purposes to fulfill with it, we also take care of our human vehicle for the purpose of enlightenment, even though it is not our true identity. The cars’ purpose is to serve the driver by getting her to her destination. Similarly, the human body - our physiology and psychology - is the vehicle by which we, the spirit self, can realize our full pleasure potential. This is not doable in any other life form and is why human life - the human vehicle - is nature’s greatest gift.
