Here's the thing about the West: The "Age of Reason" rejected Spirituality and Associative Thinking and embraced Logic and the Scientific Method, thus only the Mind and Body is acknowledged. In the East, the "trinity" of Mind, Body, and Spirit were (and is) understood as a whole. NOW, the Western secular society, on the premise of "There is no Spirit", uploads the Mind into an abstract-virtual reality, which according to "religious/magical" thinking will destroy the Spirit.
==> The Spirit is the "bonding agent"/liason between the Mind and Body. Anyone who "uploads" onto the Transhumanism Train will be Spiritually dead.
