My contention is that the unity of mind and body is an objective reality, that they are not entities related to each other in one fashion or another, but an inseparable whole while functioning. To put this point more clearly I contend that a brain without motor functions could not think or at least that the continuity of mental functions is assured by corresponding motor functions.
Moshe Feldenkrais,  FIRST COPENHAGEN CONGRESS OF FUNCTIONAL MOVEMENT AND RELAXATION, 1958

In those moments when awareness succeeds in being at one with feeling, senses, movement, and thought, the carriage will speed along on the right road.  Then man can make discoveries, invent, create, innovate, and "know."  He grasps that his small world and the great world around are but one and that in this unity he is no longer alone.   

Moshe Feldenkrais, Awareness Through Movement


Awakening mind is precious.
May it arise where it has not arisen.
May it not fade where it has arisen.
May it ever grow and flourish.
-- Buddhist prayer
