The Veil in the Body

[Monica]

Otherwise, back to the original topic, I definitely believe that practice, meditation, and\or energy work can help create a closer mind/body/spirit unity and thus give people greater control over their body and its functions.  How far can such control go?  Who knows!  Personally, I like the ambiguity.  ANY growth in such areas undoubtedly aids spiritual growth, and there's potentially no real limit to how far it could be pushed, if someone wanted to dedicate their living work to gaining such mastery.  Nor would such a life be in any way wasted, I think.

You brought up a good point:

Controlling the body by sheer force of will

vs

Raising the vibration of the body so that it resonates more harmoniously with the mind and spirit, rather than being veiled from them
