the meditative practice of ohm is a way to become more sensitive to your body energy. This is the exact opposite of separating the mind and body.
Dissociation would probably serve as a better term for what you are talking about.

Could start a thread in f96 on this. It seems to me to be the central issue of confusion in all meditative practice, whether we're trying to transform the world by becoming more fully engaged with it, or to free ourselves by recognizing the world as an illusion and leaving it behind. I don't think its a matter of misinterpreting traditional teachings, I think the teachings themselves are confused about this.
