If you think this is the strangest question you've heard so far in 2016 (or ever), I ask you to think. If you answered yes of course I have a body, then what you've ended up doing is to make a separation between the I and the body. If on the other hand you've answered what do you mean do I have a body, I am my body! In this instance, you would have made a connection rather than a separation with your body. And just by having this simple subtle (yet profound difference) in attitude, you would have demonstrated or revealed many deeper answers to yourself, and to the way you actually deal with the messages your body is constantly sending you.
I'll give an example that would relate to us as sport people. What do you do when you're training and you suddenly feel a twinge somewhere in your muscle? Do you pay close attention, listen and follow what your body is actually trying to tell you, or do you listen to the guy (or two or three) standing next to you saying: "hey come on mate, three more three more, push it!!!!?
Sometimes we completely ignore the conversation our body is trying hard to have with us, yet if you ask that same person, do you have a body? They'd be the one replying by saying no mate, I am my body, or my body and I are one and the same. With that kind of behaviour (as given in the training example above), it would have been more appropriate for that person to have replied, yes I do have a body, when asked the question, at least he would have been closer to his hidden or subconscious truth, in creating a distinct separation between the I and the body.
