The soul is our legacy of beliefs
Belief is not a tool to survive in this world
Belief is the driving force of the universe
If wo/man was created after God’s image
What does that make us?
If the universe’s essential substance is energy
And by thinking we move, shape energy
Thought is really creative
Beliefs are our most real thoughts
What we are able to believe, either consiously or unconsiously (by convention or intent)
Determines the boundaries of our reality
If we are not aware of what we really believe
That makes us Gods, suffering from amnesia
The soul is our legacy of beliefs
Learning about our soul
Is becoming aware of what we believe, think, create
Aware of what we are
So ‘positive thinking’ will have some effect
But we cannot deny our legacy
The Soul is the spark of God that is placed in each one of us before our descent into these Lower Worlds oh so very long ago.
The Soul, the Perfect part of us, the Soul that which is now smothered by the physical phenomenal world saturated by the five gross senses and five subtle senses. Soul is further enmeshed in illusions of feelings from the Astral Plane! Soul is then even further entrapped by the five passions of the mind and three guna's of action, inaction and rest or Rajas, Tamas and Sattwa. The mind is even trapped in the various realities of Lust, Greed, Anger, Vanity and Attachment and further more to karma that represents ALL of it's previous causes and their ensuing effects.
Unless you're a self-realized being one can only identify with with either one's physical body and it's conditions, the emotions and one's thoughts. If you're thinking you're on the casual body's time-track and that exists two dimensions below where the Soul can first be recognized.
Most "teachings" these days mix-up the higher emotions at the Heart chakra for the Soul residing three chakras higher.
Once Soul is contacted a person will live by it's vastly greater connection to God and that is Knowing, Being and Seeing which manifests as Love, Power and Wisdom here on the physical or Pinda Plane.
It truly is at this time the Journey Home has just begun. Transcend the physical and the higher planes become available.
