Vol. 13, GathasInsight1.8, The Study of the WholeMan's form can be divided into two parts, the head and the body; one part is for action, the other for thought. Therefore the face can explain the attitude of mind and depict the nature and character more fully than the body and its movements. Every little movement of the eyes, the movements of the lips in smiling or in laughter, the movements of the eyebrows or of the head itself explain the condition of the mind.
