You say that "you become responsible for the care and welfare of the human body"...Could you define care and welfare? Do you mean that by recovering the attention, detaching it from the conditioned messages, that the care and welfare become self-evident? Or, are you saying that we have to pick new, happier messages? The Newer, Happier messages never made sense to me because, in essence, I am still lying to myself, there is still no center! One story is not more noble than the next, even if the result is a less abused body. If, on the other hand, you are saying that you become responsible for the choice of believing in conditioned lies versus simply being awareness (which carries with it the self evident direction of health, or at least the awareness that something is going against the body and needs attention) then I am able to see better.
