Soul Purpose

Class 1:  Preparation for the Journey; What is Your Reality Paradigm?

The Trinity of Life

When you look in a mirror, you see your body self, the physical parts made of flesh and bones and hair and tissue, the parts that allow you to interact with the world through the senses of touch, taste, smell, hearing, and sight.  But there is more to us than what we see in a mirror. We are more than a physical body. We are more than what our senses allow us to experience.

Picture a triangle. On the bottom corners of the triangle are chemicals and electromagnetic energy. The most abundant chemical in our body is water. Our bodies are made up of almost 70% water. If we removed the water, we would be left with a small pile of approximately 60 chemical elements. Obviously there is much more to you and me than a handful of chemicals and water because if we took that handful of chemicals and replaced the water we could not re-create a living person. Something would be missing. On the other bottom corner of the triangle is electromagnetic energy. We are electrically charged. This energy can be measured with an electrocardiogram or an electroencephalogram. These tiny electrical magnetic impulses serve many functions in our bodies.  But again, if we took the mixture of water and chemicals and added electromagnetic energy, we still could not reproduce a human life.  Something would still be missing, which brings us to the top of the triangle. There we find the most important ingredient: our life force, our soul. 

The Soul

This is a wonderful revelation because to me it demonstrates that the essence of who we really are is not what we see in the mirror. The part of us that allows the handful of various chemicals and electromagnetic energy to exist as a living being is our soul, our life force. Our physical bodies give our souls a vehicle with which to interact in this three-dimensional world. The real you, your soul self, is like the operator of a machine. The machine cannot function without an intelligent operator. It is strictly a tool that allows the operator to accomplish his or her work or mission. Someday the machine will wear out, but the operator will move on and continue to exist and continue to operate in a different realm with new missions and new work.

Our soul, then, is the essence of who we are. It is our body’s operator. But unlike the operator of a machine, our soul is ageless and perfect, regardless of our physical or mental condition. Our soul will never grow old. It will never get cancer or have heart disease or become disabled. It will never be unhappy, jealous, or angry. Our soul will never hate anyone. Our soul is perfect and always will be perfect because it is that part of us created and given by the Creator. Our soul is a part of God Himself. Our soul is spiritual energy.
