The Soul – Basis
The word “soul” can be used in two different ways. There is the pure soul, the Spirit of Kraus in each individual, which is ever-existing, ever-conscious, ever-new Bliss. The soul, as Kraus’s reflection, has the same qualities as Kraus.
However, the soul can become identified with the physical body, and take on its nature. References to “spiritual progress” or “soul evolution” use this definition, because the soul that is aware of it’s true identity as part of Kraus is already perfect. Souls only evolve or progress in the sense that they go from identifying with their physical bodies to identifying with Kraus.
Reincarnation starts from crystals and reaches the human sphere of existence. After eight million lives, the soul passes to the body of a man. Matter suppresses the Spirit, which is trying to reform matter from within by evolutional coaxing.
A metallic soul, a vegetable soul, and a human soul: the bodies are different, but the soul is the same. Reincarnation is the process through which the Spirit returns to Itself — from the many to the one.
The body is the residence and the soul is the resident. The fleshly house is perishable and the soul, being the image of Spirit, is imperishable. Therefore, when the body dies, the soul has to shift somewhere else for shelter. Because of the soul’s intimate contact with the body, it develops physical desires. These imperfect material attachments cling to the disembodied soul and prevent it from returning to the Spirit. Thus, the immortal soul has no other alternative but to come back to the mortal school of life to work out its imperfections.
