The Angel Files

Never mind about of what your soul consists, it is much more important about how it communicates. I believe that it is through one's conscience that one's soul communicates.

As a child I became very upset after watching the Walt Disney cartoon movie about the adventures of Pinocchio. This story is about a wooden puppet, which is granted life and freedom to do what he likes, but he is also provided with a small cricket as a close friend and conscience, which advises him about what is right or wrong. Pinocchio does not often take this advise!

This idea upset me for many years, because I worried about my conscience and what it was thinking about me, Only after becoming adult did I overcome this phobia, and realise that it was my soul's conversion that was affecting me through this medium.

I would like to see other reader's and Rabbi's views about this concept of the conscience and its connection with our souls. Reply

Totally agree with Michaël! We humans can create our own truth and imagery and as such experience angels within the world of experience. That is asking and yes, you will receive. Reply

What's the difficulty? A soul is what gives a physical body the power to use all its internal and external organs including the brain. Without the soul, the body is just a blob of flesh and bones.
That's the simple explanation. The other or more profound questions are: where did it come from, who made it, how does it work, can it die, why can't we see it etc. etc. Reply

My soul is specifically and only the part of my thinking and feeling (reasoning and emotions) that the Eternal-the-Creator formed within me.

I doi not need nor wish any other explainaition for MY soul.

I don't recall ever signing up for Chabad news letter; though they are interesting, if only I had time to read them all.

I am more of a philosophical type, and am convinced that folks do not really have souls (or selves), but they individually create the notion in order to explain why all the thoughts produced in their minds usually seem to occur in a localized area.

Thoughts that occur in a localized area include" my back hurts!'", "those colors are really pretty!"; yet others include X² + Y² = R². I didn't make up that last part myself, it was presented from an outside influence.

To sum it up, "everything always seems to happen to me!" is a fault of our assuming there is always a cause for every effect, and is especially pronounced in our use of subject and predicate. "Lightning strikes", "life grows", are merely redundancies once this subject/predicate is exposed for what it is: this is equal to that".

We do not have souls, we only think we do.
