THE SOUL
"We wish to have you realize the
spirit, the soul, behind all
activities. When the physical body passes into the unconsciousness
of so-called death, the
emotions still remain. Thought is there, the
power to hear, see, think, enjoy, are still there."
'The soul must be life then?'
"Yes, that in the large sense is
true, but I would like to give it a little more definitely."
'But we have life here, so what are
the eyes and ears for if soul is
able to see without them?'
"The mechanism you have is fine, and
is for use so long as needed by mortal life. But beyond this equipment
is the more delicate one of spirit power. We here are so conscious of
the difference, so conscious of the super-excellence of our spirit
power, that we cannot help expressing this to mortals when the
talk turns toward the activities of
the human body, with its machinery for its limited stay
upon earth. The spirit life with its spirit equipment is so enormously
better and finer than the mortal, we would like to have you understand a
little the advantages and joys
of spirit existence. Never doubt them."
