Śrīla Baladeva Vidyābhūṣaṇa writes, "The body as it is has neither tendencies nor intuition; the tendencies and intuition belong to the soul within the body."
CC Adi 6.14-15, Purport: “When a person thinks ‘I am doing this,’ the ‘I am’ does not refer to the body. It refers to something more than the body, or within the body. As such, the body as it is has neither tendencies nor intuition; the tendencies and intuition belong to the soul within the body. Material scientists sometimes suggest that the tendencies of male and female bodies cause their union and that this is the cause of the birth of the child. But since the puruṣa, according to Sāṅkhya philosophy, is always unaffected, where does the tendency to give birth come from?"
