But we are still trying to treat the body as a mechanism -- in the fashion of allopathy! -- it is a combination of vitality/life force elements that hold together a material structure .
This for a limited period .
On the departure of the vitality/life force [death] the material parts disperse and may become parts of other bodies.
Nature recycles , and nothing is wasted.
If the material components were the most important then we would have a world that you and I would not wish to live in.
Think about it.
