21. Gossamer Character of the Body



The soul is the organising pivot of material acquisition.

From modern science we know that the amount of empty space in atomic and molecular structure is greater than the amount taken up by solid structures.  This is similar in principle to the amount of space taken up by matter in the solar system and the galaxy.  This is true of light, flesh and all things.  Thus what the soul actually takes hold of in manipulating a human body is more like  a thin fabric of chiffon than it is like a solid super density.  If we opened up the human body and spread it out on a two dimensional plane we would see that the surfaces taken hold of by our souls are extraordinarily scarce compared to the actual area covered by the physical area of our bodies effect in the universe.   Like a gossamer thin spider web, it is true indeed that the ' Lord shall cast a wide net.'   Our Bodies are like a wide net that thrown in a particular way by our souls retains its physical integrity.
