I am not this body, but its BUILDER and USER

To define me is my BIRTH-RIGHT which is not to be surrendered to anyone else who could be enslaved to something or someone else. For example, among what scientists say there are things that are scientific and there are things that are unscientific. All the beneficial inventions they have made are scientific, yet they may also say things that are not scientific such as different answers about origin of things that have no origin such as universe and life, https://www.reddit.com/r/DeepThoughts/comments/1o9hqal/theories_on_origin_of_universe_and_species_look/

So is the case with religions too—whatever they say need not be religious, just like whatever a joker says is not a joke. What is pro-life and pro-peace can only be religious because the word religion is from religare [Latin], “re-bond, connect, harmonize” etc. Among many answers, take only one, says Jesus in Mathew 19:6-9. In any situation anyone can know how to act right because he knows how others should act towards him in similar situations, https://www.reddit.com/r/DeepThoughts/comments/1pkgm7s/humans_cannot_have_any_excuse_for_doing_anything/ Such ability cannot arise from meat, made of materials, because such ability to REASON is not measurable, hence belongs to the Immaterial Entity, body’s BUILDER and USER, https://www.reddit.com/r/enlightenment/s/4FnMKwiVNI. Power of REASON can also give answers to vital questions pertaining to life, https://www.reddit.com/r/DeepThoughts/comments/1om4t2c/vital_questions_get_answered_automatically/ Those who are aware that they are Immaterial beings thus make use of its qualities rule over their lives. In contrast, others are ruled by external factors thus make their life sorrowful.  

Ancient Greeks understood this perfectly

They made the above knowledge in pictorial format through their mythology, through the love story of Endymion and Selene. (greekreportercom/2026/04/03/the-ancient-greek-love-story-of-endymion-and-selene) In this story, Moon is personified as a beautiful girl named Selene. One day she saw from her chariot a sleeping young man who was extremely handsome. She IMMEDIATELY fell in love with his body and would come daily and sit with his sleeping body enjoying beauty of his body. Finally story ends in she getting the boon from God Zeus to be eternally in sleep with this young man.

Story highlights the failure of mind to REASON at least once. No decision is to be made at the very first sight. Second day also when she saw this young man being found asleep, her mind should have suspected something wrong, and asked God Zeus and HE should have told her this man is under a curse of eternal sleep because he fell in love with wife of someone else, thus she should have gained control over her mind.

Control over mind is a CHOICE

Throughout history there are many who have gained control over their minds, and they are figuratively called “wheat” in the Parable of Wheat and Weeds, https://www.reddit.com/r/theology/s/E9ExDkOJhN which is corrected world history in symbolic short-story format. Such ones will be there till the end of this Age and will also survive into New Age, according to other parts of the Scriptures. There is no limit in controlling the mind, there are people like Maxmilian Kolbe (wikipediaorg/Maximilian_Kolbe) who willingly exchanged death-punishment from a young man in Nazi Concentration camp, just like there is no limit in others being controlled by bodily impulses.
