The Secret of Souls

Who are we?

We obviously have a life force.

This life force is a soul.

We obviously have many drives, pleasure, desire, potential pain/shame

The soul has multiple incarnations.

As everything, it begins within God

As Kabbalah teaches, then God creates a created spark – so mirroring the Divine, containing compassion, intelligence, emotions (for the fulfillment of beliefs)

Then God unites with that spark.

That spark then goes into another soul.

This soul birthed in lower spiritual realms, has a very powerful ego (me myself and I!)

This is why we enjoy getting our way (which is nothing but a deleterious enjoyment of power.)

As we are born – we exist in state of potential – for all of our soul potentials can be activated.

Fundamentally speaking we develop a delusion of power (as the baby received her needs, and associates their crying with the fulfillment.)

We hopefully go through a stage in which we realize, we actually have no power (after throwing tantrums which don’t work; and woe to the spoiled child who will never be happy – as their delusion of expectation is never fulfilled by reality.)

Eventually, as we become humble, our third soul (what makes us unique – no animal has this) our intelligence begetting to be curious – this is the stage of learning, from about 6

Now ironically when we hit puberty, two contradictory things happen

On one hand our animal instincts becomes strong

While conversely our Divine soul fully descends

Now the future battle, and hopefully victory of light over darkness, goodness over brutality, and ultimately of wisdom over stupidity ensue

Eventually for those who seek truth, God our truest self, becomes an ever giving Divine wellspring.
