The Subjugation Of The Body

""The Subjugation of the Body"" is a philosophical book written by Hiram Erastus Butler. The book explores the concept of the body and its relationship to the mind and soul. Butler argues that the body is often seen as a hindrance to spiritual growth and that it must be subjugated in order to achieve true enlightenment. He examines various religious and philosophical traditions, including Christianity, Buddhism, and Stoicism, to demonstrate how each has sought to control the body in pursuit of spiritual goals. Butler also discusses the role of discipline and asceticism in the subjugation of the body, as well as the potential dangers of taking this approach too far. Ultimately, ""The Subjugation of the Body"" offers a thought-provoking exploration of the complex relationship between the physical and spiritual aspects of human existence.THIS 26 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Narrow Way of Attainment, by Hiram Erastus Butler.
