Soul, Human - a minute part of the universal Soul

05/22/2016

The human soul is a minute part of the universal Soul, and it feels so limited, so confined in the physical body that its greatest wish is to spread out into infinite space and merge with it. And so it is wrong to think, as people usually do, that the soul is wholly contained within a human being. In reality, only a very small part of the soul is found within; almost all of it remains outside and leads an independent life in the cosmic ocean. It is important to have a clear notion about the nature and activity of this spiritual principle we call the soul. Not only is it not enclosed in the physical body but it extends well beyond the physical body, and while it continues to give life to the body it also travels to visit the furthest reaches of space and the entities that live there. So, you should know that your soul is much more than you imagine it to be. Because it is a part of the universal Soul, it reaches out into immensity and infinity.
