"And if one thinks the issues, the by-products of this body, as his own kinsmen . . ." Just like my children, my wife, my relatives, my father, my mother, my brother, my nation, my society—everything is due to this bodily relation. And there are thousands of women loitering in the street of the New York, and suppose I have got some ma . . . bodily connection with you, I call you my wife. And because I have got bodily relation with you, all the children produced by you, they are my children. You see?
So whole thing is . . . the basic principle is wrong, that "I am this body."
