[QUOTE="Harry Haller, post: 188844, member: 14641"] What is a soul? it is worthy of a thread in itself, it could be all the good in you, all the potential good in you? the highest level that you can be? The word 'soul' has so many connotations, that to use it in an explanation only leaves that explanation open and unconclusive. Does your soul hurt? Can you feel the pain in your soul? Maybe your soul is as real as my dear wolf, maybe your soul is nothing of the sort, a flowery description of something very simple. The mind as associated with our physical brain is something else, it is real, it hurts, it feels pain, joy, so who are you? whatever is the sum total of your mind? or this mythical soul? If my soul goes onto Sachkhand after death, what happens to my mind? What happens to all my likes and dislikes? What use is it to me where my soul ends up? I always felt that Sikhism was a way to grow your mind to the highest point you can, and then to utilise that growth to assist Creation, and along the way, to do the same, I find people hungry for salvation, for mukti, for a sight of Sachkhand a bit like those folks that stop you in the street to try and get you to sign a donation up. Some of them earn more than me, I asked one the other day, £25,000 is what he gets paid to solicit donations from the general public, so his interest is not the starving in Africa, he is just doing his job, and those that yearn for an afterlife, for a sight of God, to nestle in his lap and play with his beard, well, thats the goal, not the journey, the supreme connection that can be had right here and right now, is being exchanged for promises of untold joy that can never be, its chasing personal riches over connection. As for getting 'it', well I am quite happy not to get it, if getting it is becoming a smug, self satisfied person obsessed with the thought of being one of the chosen few, well, frankly, you can stick 'it'. Regarding the afterlife, after some thought, no one can truly know what happens after death, sure, we can all speculate, but no one can make any definitive statement, however, I live on the basis that I will be wormfood, but the truth is, after death, I could not care less, that is where the faith kicks in, I expect wormfood, because I refuse to allow my thinking to be compromised by the thought that this is all some big test, with Gods lap being the chief prize, we get back to the £25,000 charity collectors again, I hope those concerned enjoy 'it' when they find 'it' [/QUOTE]
