Are we all One?

I already tried to ask this question in another thread but I apparently formulated it in a mistakable way, so here is what I actually meant:


Does each human being has his own soul or do we all have one soul in common?


Since some of you use unfavorable definitions of words I have to make clear that:
With “SOUL” I denote the thing, mechanism, or structure that underlies (generates) our conscious experiences.

I myself do NOT believe that we all are one. I believe that I have a soul that is different from the soul of other humans beings.
I believe that my soul is an energetic structure that could exist relatively independent from, for example, your soul.

I believe we are just a drop in the ocean but we still come from the ocean so are one with ocean.

What? The same thread AGAIN??



It's both.
They are not mutually exclusive.

Also form comes from and is consciousness.
They are not mutually exclusive.

The energetic structure IS form, as science will tell you, but what exists independent of form is consciousness although there is a relationship between consciousness and form. The interaction between form and consciousness gives rise to what we are conscious of, or at least that's the theory. Triplex Unity as the pre-Taoist called it.

If you're having problems formulating the right question, try "What are the reasons I believe the Soul is an energetic structure that can exist independently of form?" If you know so much about psychology you should recognise your belief as a 'product' of the Jungian ego. When you can put the energetic structure, the Soul, Consciousness and what you are conscious of..... and a few other things..... into a framework of relationships it might start to make sense.

If you're looking for something to make more sense of this, try Gestalt Reality because there you'll find God explained. If that doesn't suit you, try the Sacred Geometry of the Vesica Pisces as a basis for the Buddhist Egg of Life and the Tree of Life - with a dash of fractal geometry thrown in for good measure if you like. In the mood for something far more simple? In Africa they have the phrase "Ubuntu", which means "I am because we are." That's the 'seed'.

We each have our own soul but we are all one in the fact that we all come from spirit.and we all go back to spirit.

Souls are unique to the individual what make us one is love the unifying emotion. Amen
