Rare Marilyn Monroe photo sells for nearly $150,000- yahoo news (not the one shown)
Only if my photo can sell for so much…oh well I am not Monroe!
But when we come along and talk about the fact that we are not the body then we will be seen as crazy because people like Monroe’s body and by spending so much they can pretend to possess something valuable.
Therefore, the problem is not that the body-soul philosophy is less convincing but it is just that modern man is blindly attached to the body though intuitively we know we are not just merely made of blood, flesh and bones.Why then this obsession?
Perhaps…just this one time for Monroe??
