Quote by Kahlil Gibran
Since our inner experiences consist of reproductions and combinations of sensory impressions, the concept of a soul without a body seems to me to be empty and devoid of meaning.
Summary
This quote suggests that the idea of a soul existing independently from the body is meaningless because our inner experiences are essentially composed of sensory perceptions. The speaker implies that the soul is a construct based on the reproduction and combination of these sensory impressions, emphasizing the interdependence between the body and the experiences it enables. Therefore, to envision a soul without a body is perceived as purposeless, as it neglects the foundation and source of our inner experiences.
