The Growth and Evolution of the Soul

0:02 most people are not directly aware of their soul, although it is frequently talked about There seems to be much confusion. Western scientists have tried to determine the existence of the Soul. Like they would measure particular chemical elements within the body. They weigh the body immediately before. And then immediately, after the time of death and try to determine if there is any difference in weight. This approach assumes that the soul has weight and mass that would be measurable by our external measuring capabilities.

0:43 It does not recognize the subtle unseen powers of existence unless they can be validated through some external technique. The same approach can be applied and is proven when one tries to measure the existence of the Mind, No weight difference before and after death or the existence of the heart of emotion. The action of the emotions, the action of the Mind are subtle actions. That use the physical instruments to receive an Express, various energetic, vibrational States, but do not add to the weight that we carry around as a physical organ or form. Similarly we cannot see electricity or gravity or other cosmological forces yet we can experience their effects. Einstein famously developed a formula to convert energy and matter into one another which indicated that mass could become pure energy moving at the speed of light without Mouse. One could extrapolate that there are states were a measuring tool subtle enough and sensitive enough. Could actually weigh the energetic packets and who knows? Maybe someday they will succeed in measuring the weight of the soul, for whatever?

2:14 That will be worth. As the spiritual growth takes place. The individual becomes acutely, aware of both the existence of and the action of the soul. In The evolutionary development, including the transition from birth to death and rebirth, that marks, the souls developmental Journey Through Time, SRI aurobindo writes quote. It is necessary to understand. Clearly, the difference between the evolving Soul, psychic being and the pure Optimum cell for a spirit. The pure self is unborn does not pass through death or birth is independent of birth or body or mind, or life, or this manifested nature.

3:07 It is not bound by these things, not limited not effective even though it assumes and supports them. The sole on the contrary is something that comes down into birth and passes through death. Although it does not itself die for it is Immortal from one state to another from the Earth plane to other planes and back again to the Earth existence. It goes on with this progression, from life to life, through an evolution, which leads it up to the human State and evolve through it all. A being of itself which we call the psychic being that supports the evolution and develops a physical vital, a mental human consciousness, as its instruments of World experience. And of a disguised imperfect, but growing self-expression. All this, it does from behind a veil showing something of its Divine self.

4:13 Only insofar as the imperfection of the instrumental, being will allow it. But a time comes, when it is able to prepare to come out from behind the veil, to take command and turn all the instrumental nature towards a Divine fulfillment. This is the beginning of the true spiritual life. The soul is able now to make itself ready for a higher evolution of manifested Consciousness than the mental human. It can pass from the mental to the spiritual and through degrees of the spiritual to the Supra mental state.

4:55 Till then there is no reason why it should cease from birth. It cannot in fact, do so if having reached the spiritual state it Wills to pass out of the terrestrial manifestation, it may indeed do so but there is also possible a higher manifestation in the knowledge and not in the ignorance.
