For me the simplest way to understand the Soul is Consciousness.
The Consciousness which gazes out of our eyes, the Silent Observer which watches our thoughts and emotions and actions, the Consciousness which will eventually discard the physical body and move on to other realms of activity.
If we struggle to connect with the Soul, it is not because it is so far away but because it is so close that we are unaware of it. It is what we are.
