What God is to the Universe is what your mind is to your body

Given that mind is an emergent property of a brain that is part of a body, you're belaboring the obvious. But you're also miscategorizing the requirement. Fact is, comatose women have been kept on life-support so that they could bring their fetus to term (http://www.medicaldaily.com/life-support...aby-389238, http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2016/04/br...33381.html, and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Susan_Torres).

You'll need to demonstrate that need. Simply repeating it is not demonstration.

Mind is an emergent property of a complex brain. Any more questions?
