Galina Valentinovna Grinenko. History of philosophy (№ 466218)

Man is a combination of soul and body. The soul is the bearer of the divine principle in man; it exists before the birth of the body, the soul is immortal, it is the source of movement and activity, it contains everything that allows a person to rise. The human body is material, inactive and inert, the body contains all the worst things that pull a person down, the body is a prison for the soul. Man, by virtue of his physicality, is initially a sinful being.
