You said, "Well...
I can close my eyes and pretend my body doesn't exist...
I can divert my attention from it so that I am not aware of it...
But I can't wish it out of existence...
Unfortunately ;-)"
I say, you can, actually, but it isn't wishing, and I don't believe I ever used that word here, now, if I did I was incorrect because, you see, because it isn't wishing but you certainly can change the "fact" of your body's "existence" .. just as you can make yourself lose your mind.
It's true. But wishing has nothing to do with it. Wishing in itself is a powerless action, it's a silly word, I've always had a real aversion to that word. It's childish, silly, ineffective.
