The body and the mind are but superfluous outer coverings of the spirit soul. The spirit soul’s needs must be fulfilled. Simply by cleansing the cage of the bird, one does not satisfy the bird. One must actually know the needs of the bird himself.
- Shrila Prabhupada, Shrimad Bhagavatam, 1.2.8 Purport
