Your body is not separate from the body of the universe because at quantum mechanical levels there are no well-defined edges.
You are like a wiggle, a wave, a fluctuation, a convolution, a whirlpool, a localized disturbance in the larger quantum field.
The larger quantum field - the universe - is your extended body ~ Chopra
