Travelling from Mind to Soul
Dr Dalvinder Singh Grewal
We are all attached to the world kind courtesy our mind. We are also attached to God kind courtesy our soul. Our mind controls our body and senses and the senses are the outlets of the body towards the world. Our body’s needs like hunger...
"Mann tu jyot swaroop hain, Apna mool pehchan"... The Soul or jyot as per sikhi is not the pre-existing notion of a physical Aatma in Humans but rather a parallel to that at the level Mann or matt..
That our soul or jyot is this Consciousness or this capability of soch or our Mann/Matt..

Since according to sikhi, the ultimate aim of human life is to become ONE with god, I wonder why souls separated from god in the first place?

The national Sangeet Natak Akademi Award-2014 to Navtej Johar is a fine recognition for someone who dared to dance his own way. A Chandigarh boy, who in his student days in the late seventies was noticed for his expressive performance in the street plays of Gurcharan Chani, trod his own path...
Friends, I've been thinking lately of what exactly is a soul? With the ability of a soul to transmigrate as some form of energy, or as it reincarnates, or transcends into other heavenly forms.. what properties does a soul have that actually goes with it? Does it think? Does it have feelings...

Since I go to a Catholic School I have to take Theology Class.
We were on the topic of souls. I already know that Us Sikhs believe animals have souls.
But in class, my theology teacher brought up the definition of a soul. I don't know who gave him this definition, but I don't buy it at all...

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh!
Sangat Ji, I just spent the last little bit reading through one of Seeker3k Ji's old threads, the one about there being a soul in Sikhi. I have my own take on it, my own opinion that I formulated by the time I was done reading the thread. I didn't...
