Do you know you have a soul?
Soon enough there will be no paper money, no dollars and no cents. Everyone will have a credit line of some sort, which will be a person’s source of sustenance. What lies in the future for mankind? I can guess with the best of them, and I think my guesses my hit home for some, and for some…oh I’m just a heretic madman. I eat food, I drink water, and I was born from a woman as well as from a man. To the common mind, that would make me human. Well as a human being I see things that could be detrimental to our well being as a race. We as Americans are comfortable compared to other countries in this world, basking in our freedom, and by my opinion we should bask away! We are free!! But…freedom doesn’t mean doing immoral things just because you can. That is not freedom. The concept of morals that many in society have without a doubt were birthed upon religious foundations. A common belief in a God, who will be coming back to harvest the righteous from the evils this world was infected with. This God made rules and sent a message of understanding to man, that his rules were meant not only to be preached about, but to be followed. Many of these rules from God that we understand to be righteous; are that way not because we know they are righteous, but because we also feel that it is. For example, helping those in need, or giving your time to do a good duty. You not only know that this is good within your mind, but you feel internally that it is good. Could that be your soul you feel? And if we have a soul doesn’t that prove that there is a God? Because this God we all know, no matter which religion, this God has told us about our souls. Thousands and thousands of years ago, when men were writing on papyrus and there were no cars, or computers, or planes, there was without dispute a belief in a God who talks to his creation and informs them that they are spiritual, of the spirit, the force, the energy, we contain souls!!! You know you have one… My question is, do you know that you have a soul? Or better yet…do you know your God?

There is that presence that can not be explained that brings me peace when I'm restless and pulls me forward to an answer when I am uncertain.
- Yes. All the human beings has soul which can be felt by regular meditation and longingness for God. Please visit website www.sahajmarg.org for a wonderful knowledge about soul and realise God.
- The soul is your body which is made up of or from all the elements upon earth and returns back to earth in the end.But did you know you have spirit in that soul,from the spirit of life is to all the living.The most important thing to know is keep that spirit a good one by taking no evil into you and sending no evil out of you.Thats to say dont eat from the tree of good and evil and burn it down within you Ask the HOLY SPIRIT forgiveness you are forgiven,but you have to live in that forgiveness to be forgiven by God
- When God created the man, God blessed him spirit and made his well-designed body with clay and water. Even today every one possesses three different things, body, spirit and self. 1. Body:- God made the body a performing machine to act according to the demands of self. It eats, wears, drinks, smells, tastes, sees, hears, touches and uses the universe. This thing works as a base of needs and demands. Though it seems different from other animals but it is not different at all. Its design is different but its nature is actually the same. 2. Spirit:- God created it as an acting power. It is a Commandment and Will of our Lord and we use it for a little time (the life span) in space. Since it totally belongs to God, so we are answerable of its use. It is a guiding-light and our conscious-energy. All the things around us including angels and demons may effect it through suggestions and as a result we may move in right or wrong direction. It is not God because nothing can effect God and determine God’s mood. God is Holy and the Creator of all the things, which we can name. Spirits are sometimes, God guided and sometimes, demon guided and only God guided spirits are pious-ones and demon guided spirits are all-in-all evil. 3. Self:- Self is the real being, fully equipped with the power of decisions. Self is the real man or woman, a sort of guest in the house of spirit and body. Self is a third dimension of our existence. Spirit makes the body move and all acts happen according to the decisions made by the self. Our life is a gesture of these three things in our existence and we are passing through time. Our universe/cosmos is a living story book and our’s selves are it’s characters. Particles of the body of universe, are alphabets and things in it are words, in physical and metaphysical form the words of God. Cosmos is a spirit of the body of universe, which runs it and makes it meaningful. The universe/cosmos is a book of God for our reading. Above that Moral State is a law of God (Not God) over universe/cosmos___ to award the right and wrong___ done by the creatures. Our’s selves are free beings to act freely. We may act according to the Commandments of God or we may follow our own way. Results of the both are predominantly different. Servants of God are blessed but followers of Demon are cursed. And both of the type of acts are being precisely recorded, on the most sensitive tape of cosmos and in the book of universe, for the ultimate judgement. We own nothing but our free Selves, which are conscious-beings, belonging to the moral state. Spirits are immaterial things, belonging to the cosmos. And, Bodies are material things, belonging to the universe. All attentions appear in our Selves and our acts are the expressions of our Selves. And our Selves are answerable to God for each and every act. If the acts are done according to the God’s Commandments, they are known as right and good deeds. And, if the acts are done according to the suggestions of Satan, then, they are known as wrong and evil deeds or sins. Good deeds lead us to prosperity and Heaven and evil deeds lead us to the doom and Hell. Such a situation is under operation in the moral state. Spirit and Body, the both are great gifts of our Lord blessed to our Self. Now think yourself! If I ask you, “From where have you got this body? Does it belong to you? What will be your answer? If you say, “It belongs to me and I got it from this world”___ Then I shall ask you, “To whom you paid its price and for how much you purchased it? You will start thinking and will positively understand what I wanted to let you know. You will realize that it is a gifted thing and your Creator has blessed it to you. It is nothing but a great, beautiful and precious gift of your Almighty Lord. NOW Ponder over this assumption. Suppose; you like someone and want to show your love to him or her. In such a situation, you will buy a thing and will give it to him or her as a gift as you know that through this way you can express your love. If he or she accepts it and gives honour to your gift and pays thanks; what will be your feelings? You will definitely feel a great joy and will become his or her friend. And, if he or she not only rejects your gift but also throws it down in the dust and smashes it or kicks it with his or her foot; what will be your feelings? Now I hope, you can understand in a better way that when someone commits or attempts suicide, he or she smashes and ruins the gifts of his or her loving Lord, Therefore, the Lord does not like such an act and curses the suiciders. Anger of the Lord is expressed in the Law of banning suicide in all of the religions. In fact, killing of one’s ownself is equal to the killing of someone else while every soul is a precious creation of the Lord. Such people, who commit suicide or kill others, are evildoers. Both are criminals, in the sight of our Lord and deserve punishment. Purpose of life is the worship of the Lord alone. This life is nothing but a test of obedience to the Alone Lord. Each and every thing is perishable of our present life. As compared to the eternal life, this life is a dream like reality and life in Heaven is not perishable but that is the real life. In this worldly life, our death is with us on each and every step while the eternal life is without an end. Everyone will either rejoice due to good deeds or will face torture due to evil deeds forever. Ram Chander Jee said, “Whosoever has taken birth, will face death”. He was right to say so because each and every Book of our Lord tells this truth in open words. It is repeatedly announced in all the Books that each and everyone will taste death and this universe will come to an end for another beginning. Only the Creator of life and death, is forever. Life with death, can never be considered as a real life. It is, of course, similar to real life. People of wisdom do understand its temporal nature. It looks like a child’s play but its not a child’s play. It is a mean of test, so one should remain sincere to the Lord and live and fight with patience for the eternal life constantly. One should serve his or her Lord whole-heartedly and establish his or her love for the Lord alone. Death can come at anytime in this temporal life and when the moment of death reaches it, makes it finished. We leave each and everything and move to the destined destination, empty-handed and empty-minded. Nothing remains important and the death itself reveals the answers of all the questions, which we can not, perhaps, understand during the lifetime. It opens up the eyes of each and everyone. It is the moment of death, alone which lets us know the importance of belief. Death releases our self and takes away the spirit and body in the same way as it normally happens in our dreams. In a dream, Spirit and Body remain apart and only our Self sees and feels everything. We hear without ears and see without eyes and when we die in a dream, our eyes open here, in this world. The same thing happens when someone dies here; in this world, his or her eyes open in the eternal life and one can not come back to this life to let the others know about the process of death as a dream-awaken can not go back to the dream. After death or suicide body becomes like a closed door which spiritless-self can not open to feel and see this world and self becomes world-less or body-less to be called dead. Suicide is not an end of everything. It is simply the beginning of next life without a further chance to do a good or a bad deed. Death, in fact, is an end of this life and beginning of the next life, which will be the result of the deeds, done here. One must know this very fact comprehensively. Nothing will go along, with the dead but his good or bad deeds for Judgement. This life is a way to the next life. It is not our destination. Since, the believers know this thing through faith, so they are not scared of death. Instead they are scared of the anger of their Lord and do good deeds. The believers are brave due to their belief and the non-believers are coward due to the lack of knowledge and belief. Only such people, who do not know the reality of this life, try to commit suicide and think that this will be an end of their sickness. Whereas, suicide is not an end of any sickness but it is the beginning of doom. Whosoever kills himself, he walks out of the test and such a person is declared failed and doomed to Hell. Reality of the law, on which nature survives, is revealed in our nature. Even the most beautiful thing which we achieve, start boring us by the passage of time and what is to say about the boring things. Our life is not meant to waste in the pursuits of worldly things but it is an open test and is a preparation plan of the eternal life. One will sow here and will cut there in the next life. At last, God shows mercy to mankind and says in revelation that if someone will not believe in the gods, besides the Alone Lord, the Lord will show mercy to such one and will forgive his or her sins. “Lo! Allah (The Alone Lord) forgives not that a partner should be ascribed unto Allah. Allah forgives (all) save that to whom Allah will. Whose ascribes partners to Allah (The Alone Lord), has wandered far astray”. (Quran 4:116) This promise takes our attention to these words of Torah. “I ___and I alone___ am God No other god is real”. (Bible, Duet 32:39) Therefore, one should not believe in three or many gods, instead, one should believe in only One and Alone Unseen God. One should not consider this world or universe as a god as pantheists consider “Everything is god and god is every thing”. Whereas, God has already clearly mentioned in Torah that nothing resembles to God. Please read this text carefully: “Worship no god but Me. Do not make for yourselves images of anything in heaven or on earth or in the water under the earth. Do not bow down to any idol (image) or worship it, because I am the Lord your God and I tolerate no rivals. I bring punishment on those who hate me and on their descendants down to the third and fourth generation”. (Bible, Exodus 20:3, 4, 5) Therefore, one should simply believe in One Alone Lord and understand that nothing resembles to the Lord and Lord is the UNSEEN. the word GOD means:- 1.G___ FOR GENERATOR OF THE UNIVERSE 2.O___ FOR ORGANIZER OF THE UNIVERSE AND COSMOS. 3.D___ FOR DESTROYER OF EVERYTHING. I KNOW MY GOD, WHO IS THE ALMIGHTY ONE ALONE ALL CAPABLE ALL POWERFUL LORD WHO IS THE CREATOR, ORGANIZER AND NOURISHER OF THIS UNVERSE AND ITS BEYOND. WE ALL ARE VILE, ABJECT AND HELPLESS CREATURES OF THE ALMIGHTY GOD AND OUR DEPENDANT ON GOD FOR EVERYTHING FROM OUR NEXT BREADTH TO EVERY BLESSING IN LIFE, WE ARE DEPENDANT ON GOD. AND GOD SHOULD BE WORSHIPPED AND HONOURED AS GOD HAS COMMANDED ALL OF US: “I ____ and I Alone___ am God: No other god is real. I kill and I give life, I wound and I heal, And no one can oppose what I do”. (Duet 32:39) “Worship no god but Me. Do not make for yourselves images of anything in heaven or on earth or in the water under the earth. Do not bow down to any idol Or worship it, because I am the Lord your God and I tolerate no rivals”. (Bible, Exodus 20:3, 4, 5)
