Understanding the Forgotten Self
The Morning Standard
|November 10, 2024
Explore the profound relationship between the soul and body, uncovering true self-awareness and the journey towards spiritual fulfillment

We all live until we keep breathing, which is why the phrase "till the last breath" is often used in our day-to-day lives. However, we tend to forget the very important fact that the body remains alive only as long as the soul resides in it. The presence of the soul automatically sustains the functioning of the body, so much so that the breathing process continues even while the person is in deep sleep. Therefore, in the truest sense, it is the soul that performs all activities through the body. The body and its organs are merely instruments or instruments to carry out the soul's directives. It is not the mouth that speaks on its own, but the soul that speaks through the mouth, using the body as a tool. The soul sees, hears, speaks, feels and acts through the body. These actions are performed via the senses of sight, sound, speech, smell and touch. These senses operate through their respective organs in the body by receiving and conveying messages to and from the brain.
