(Luk. 12) 22 He said to his disciples, Therefore I tell you, don't be anxious for your life, what you will eat, nor yet for your body, what you will wear. 23 Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing.

The commandment in the first of these two verses cannot be obeyed without understanding the second of the verses (Luk. 12:23).

I have just a minute ago understood what Luk. 12:23 means. the body is more than clothing means that the body has aura or bio-magnetism or whatever which extends outside the clothing. This teaching may look like non-Christian, but it is what Jesus has said. This so called aura is a part of the body.

(Luk. 12:25-26) 25 Which of you by being anxious can add a cubit to his height? After saying this Jesus has raised a cubit (half of meter) above the ground so adding himself a cubit of height. So He has shown that His style of life surpasses their life full of anxiety, and He also has shown that the body is not limited by the visible borders set by clothes but extends not less than half of meter outside.

Jesus continued, (Luk. 12:26) 26 If then you aren't able to do even the least things, why are you anxious about the rest? He meant, You can do practically nothing, even a so simple thing as to fly a cubit height, then how you may reason about your life what is the right life style? He also has meant that we are over-filled with the energy, we eat too much and have much more power than needed to fly, indeed we are anxious to eat attempting to fill our bodies with much superfluous energy which we cannot use. We are kinda anxious about the rest that is anxious about having more power which would be needed to do greater deals than to fly, while we hardly can even fly, our organisms being overloaded.

He has shown that it is very much wrong as His hearers have lost the ability to do even the least things. He has shown them that they are in error, not He.

Also in verse 32 Jesus has said that the power of life is more than the power which we receive with food. I'm not sure whether here Jesus speaks about the energy of the visible physical body or of some extended spiritual body. Maybe Jesus has referred to the power which we may receive from space radio waves, I do not know.

We will be anxious for what us to eat and to wear if we will limit ourselves to the visible physical body. We may cease to be anxious when we realize that our life is outside of these visible borders; yes, even in this present life while we are yet in the body.
