As lÃnguas europeias modernas - incluindo o inglês que estamos a falar agora - assentam em raÃzes provenientes do grego antigo e do latim. Assim, é inevitável que algumas das perspetivas e preconceitos da visão do mundo helénico tenham-se infiltrado na nossa vida quotidiana através do uso de palavras comuns. Quando usamos o termo homem (que, significativamente, também se supõe referir-se à mulher), estamos a dizer, na verdade, que o mais importante em nós é o facto de termos um mens, ou mente. Parece que a mesma ênfase está por trás do sânscrito manas (também mente) e dos seus derivados, como manushya. A dimensão encarnada desta mente é convenientemente ignorada, sugerindo que o corpo e as suas necessidades são relativamente sem importância: o essencial é satisfazer as necessidades da mente ou do espÃrito - daà falarmos de espiritualidade (como se o cultivo da nossa corporeidade pudesse ser tranquilamente ignorado na busca pelo desenvolvimento humano. Por outro lado, o termo humano implica uma visão muito mais integrada: lembra-nos que somos humus (latim: terra, lama) mais mens - mentes terrenas.
