Thoughts About The Soul

Do I really know what the soul is? No. I have a feeling, a strong feeling. I have a belief, a strong belief. But when I think back, that belief and feeling about what a soul is has changed or at least, has become a bigger picture over the years. I don’t know if I will ever get the whole picture. I may only see it once I get rid of my body and merge again with my source. I want to share some thoughts about the soul with you and I don’t know yet where I will end up.

I love to talk about the soul. Talking about the soul already makes me feel powerful and peaceful at the same time. There is a saying that strength lies in serenity and it is definitely true. The soul doesn’t need to prove anything. It knows it all. It doesn’t need to convince the ego that the ego is not slightly half as wise as the soul is. It makes no sense because the ego doesn’t even want to understand.

Wait…. the ego, the soul…. and I? That makes me think: Are there three? Because when I can decide between listening to the ego or the wisdom of my soul then “I” would be a third party. Yes, I believe that the “I” is an aspect of that huge formation called the soul. It is that aspect that was sent down to earth in order to experience itself and in order to remember who it is.

There are many aspects of the soul incarnating at the same time – our soul mates! And if our soul’s plan has it written in our incarnation contract, then we are even granted to meet our twin soul. I believe that twin souls or twin flames are literally two halves of this soul’s aspect. That’s why they feel more familiar with each other than with anyone else. They understand each other without words and they recognize each other immediately. They have everything in common for a solid base but each of them has exactly the perfect things to add in order to make both feel whole.

When I consciously align with my soul then I feel security and strength coming up within me. I feel surrounded and fulfilled by light. It is a feeling of knowing that all is well – no matter how it is. Because otherwise, it wouldn’t be as it is. It is a feeling of being guided and watched over me. A feeling of love and serenity but also the inner motivation to go for what I feel is my purpose, my dream, my order! And whatever I feel it might be, gives sense to my life. Then I feel where I belong in this life – I feel my place in this world. Is there anything for enhancing than feeling on track with who you are?

I don’t know, but I believe that the soul I belong to is part of the source. Eventually, we all together are the source – the incarnated aspects of a soul, all souls as part of the source. In my book I’m Free I explain that with a cake. All the ingredients you need are mixed together thoroughly. Whatever piece you cut out has the same composition. Even a crumb has that same composition. We all carry that divine spark within. That’s why we are all the same at our core. We have the same origin, we all enter a body, and we all are destined to leave it again. We all are exploring this physical life at different ages. We all have something to give. We all find limitations. We all are meant to overcome them in a unique way. We all have unique stories. We all are breathing the same air, and need food and water to nurture our bodies. We all are walking on the same road but moving differently. We are all – one energy. It cannot be separated, it only comes in different forms. But we are one energy and that’s what mankind needs to understand. We all have this creative power within but only when we consciously unite it we can create great things for everyone. Then we are having a world honoring the things we have in common and even more what the individual has to give in its uniqueness.

Then everybody will be free to fulfill their purpose which again we basically have in common: Experiencing this physical life in its fullness for the sake of everyone!

In Love and Light

as always, very thoughtful and interesting. I love when you make me STOP, think, and re-read something as it swirls around in the slow synapses in my head, to see where it lands. I like what you feel about Souls. I think I come to the conclusion that Every living thing is MY Soul Mate. Since I have that similar Source, and all puzzle pieces make the Whole, we all have an exact relationship with each other, everything alive becomes a Soul Mate to complete me. hmm, could be. But like you say, I won’t know until I re-locate. but, I love the fact that you make us stop and think about this stuff. no better way to spend a few minutes of every day. 🙂 🙂 your friend, momentummikey

Wow, Mikey, that is a wonderful compliment. You made me smile. Yes, that is what I actually try to do – make others think. Because I don’t know, I just believe and everybody shall too check out what there is to believe. It is amazing what you say and I see it the same way. In the end we are all one anyway and therefore basically all soul mates. We all are originating from the same source. I love that a lot what you wrote! Thank you very much for your amazing and detailed comment!

This leaves a lot of food for thought… rather cake for thought 🙂 I love how you separated mind, body and soul while still maintaining the link between the three. When the three align, you are truly complete.

Erika, a most interesting quote to begin your post. I like the reference to impatience.

Your description reminds me of a passage from the book “Shogun” where it was said the Japanese believe in six layers of a person – starting with the one they show formally in public, followed by the informal one, the one they show acquaintances….then friends and family, then intimate ones, and the one they truly are. Whether this is cited correctly or just an author telling a story, it made me think the one the person truly is their soul or as close as we could get to one.

Sorry to digress, but you got me thinking on a Monday morning. Keith

Wow, that is awesome about the six layers and I can relate to that very well. I remember when I was a teenager that I talked to my friend and said that it was interesting how we are different deep insights into ourselves depending to whom we are talking to. Your comment reminds me of that. You absolutely did not digress. That is a wonderful complement to the post. Thank you very much for sharing it, Keith! I always appreciate your detailed comments a lot!

Haha, I would never! Whatever someone posts strikes different chords within the readers and that is the wonderful thing about sharing thoughts and about getting to know each other. Always just write what comes to your mind 😊

What a great post Erika. I loved it – the fight within uis can easily be explained as the battle between body and soul.
But also we have the need to be fulfilled in purpose and love and we need that to feel happy I believe.

Exactly, Simon! As long as the two are not pulling into the same dirction there is this tension within. The voice of the soul can impossibly give in because it is who we are. That means we have to adjust the mind because this is in our control and helps the soul to achieve what it came here for.
