“Nakedness can ... provoke or intensify the falling away of more than physical barriers, evoking an holistic vulnerability, a tangible soul honesty, not only in terms of how we relate to those around us ... but also with ourselves.” —Emma Restall Orr
“There are six positive spiritual aspects of nudity. Vulnerability, Openness, Intimacy, Genuineness, Wholeness, and Equality. Much of the spiritual qualities that nudity possesses are incomplete without others to experience them with you. We dress in work clothes to define our work. We dress in athletic clothes to go work out. We dress in casual clothes to relax. We dress in sexy clothes to be romantic and make love. We dress in formal clothes to impress people with who we are. In a very real way clothing is used to compartmentalize our life. When you are naked all that is gone and the reality of ALL that you truly are is there: body, soul and spirit in one package and there is no compartmentalization at all. We simply and truly are what we are.” —Dr. Vian Aziz https://x.com/vianazizfrcoguk/status/1785803279709974690?s=46&t=fpiEy5CqbBOXR1N66BxSTw
