mind CAN live without body
a body cannot live without mind. but a mind can live without body.
neo seperated his body with mind. it wasnt the power of the One i think as Oracle did tell him that his connection with the machines in real world was his another power. so, what about the other people who died in M1 as cypher unplugged them. they died in real world but they could live in the matrix. we also find in many religions that a mind can live without body.
it was totally my on personal opinion. i just want to know what do u all think about it?
