Greetings Mikron,
How and why did the soul start to go to the mineral kingdom?

As you haven't defined what you mean by "spiritual people" there is no point either in talking about eastern or western 'spiritualists' until you have defined them too....
Now when
I speak about 'Spiritualists' I can readily define the
philosophy and religion that UK
Spiritualists ((Modern Spiritualists to use the full name) follow. Yes in the UK,
Spiritualism is a legally defined and recognised religion. And
Spiritualists are those who subscribe to the values found there....
As a Modern Spiritualist (as defined) my understanding is influenced initially by the teachings underpinning that religion and by the spiritually-evolved teachers who gave their guidance to the movement.
As to your question
"How and why did the soul start to go to the mineral kingdom?" well that's a subject worthy of its own thread, mentioned by myself only because mikron had raised the issue.
