CellsHuman body is composed of countless cells

There are two kinds of cellsProtozoicMetazoic

The Human Physical Structure

All parts of the human body are composed of this two types of cells.

The entire human structure can be regarded as one metazoic cell

The Human BeingHuman beings have their individual mind and

soul.

Every cell has also their own individual mind and soul

The mind of the cells is different from the human mind

The Human MindThe human mind is:

The unit microcosmPlus the collection of the minds of the metazoic

and protozoic cells.

The unit mind is inseparably related to each of its cells and the mind of the cells have a relation with the unit mind.

Life of a cellGenerally a cell lives 21 days, dies and is

replaced by new cells

When you rub your body some dirt comes off, even when the body is covered. These are actually mostly dead cells.

In old age the old cells decay and new cells are produced in lesser number and get less nourishment

Cells grow out of light, air, water and the food we eat.

The nature of food and drink have its effect on the cells and consequently on the human mind.
