Life Here and Hereafter by Fred Rafferty 1927

 

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."
