Principles Concerning the Brain/Body and the Corresponding I (the Self/Mind)

Abstract

In this chapter, I will explain the principles referring to the body (to the organism in general, brain included) and the corresponding I (i.e., the self or mind). Generally, any body/organism exists in the macro-EW along with other macroparticles. For instance, our bodies exist in the same macro-EW as tables and planets. As we saw in the previous chapter, microparticles do not compose our bodies, but they correspond to them, since they belong to the micro-EW. What are the relationships between a body and its cells, between an organism and its life, between a cell and its life, between a human body and the mind? As we will see in chapter 3, it has been wrongly claimed that the organism has life, and since biologists consider that the smallest living entity is the cell, therefore a cell has life, too.
