Having pondered at times as to what is the soul. I feel an analogy sort of suffices the quest that at other times burns to be identified. Like many things esoteric, spiritual and mystical in the occult, shamanic and Eastern Practices and disciplines the words and even the movements have layers of innuendo and deeper intuitive nuances. It is intriguing and a warning from the adepts not to get addicted and not be fascinated by the forms and meanings of these aspects and keep in mind the journey towards emancipation from ruts, grooves that hold the awareness in stalemate and eventually to dullness.
So I feel that awareness which to me is consciousness is all pervading and is impossible to grasp as a firm form or explanation, theory or such like, however I experience myself as an awareness being aware of itself and at times going beyond the encapsulation of the brain or familiar cognition within the screen of mind.
I feel that my or is it my awareness, is temporarily residing in this flesh body named Geoff Shack Ashley Freed and for some unknown reason and only a speculative one to experience this form of flesh vehicle and then to free oneself from it and realise that awareness, consciousness is beyond as it were form and indeed returns if emancipated from the 'pull and desire' of the mortal coil in order to join but not really separated and in fact the only apparent separation was the brain washing, programming, conditioning passed down through generation of not exactly misguided education but through culture, religion, suspicion and so on and a sort of experiment by the forces of evolution to raise the flesh and open the mind to its true nature.
So until emancipation is realised not by logic or intellectual academic psychology, analysis, discussion, debate or heretical imposition then by the fact that the cloud of conditioning traps the awareness in the confines of the brain and local mind sets and patterns.
However through meditation that is just witnessing the passage of content on the screen of mind one can become aware and realise there is a watcher, an observer, a witness that is not the mind stuff witnessed but is an unbiased observer up until the observer gets lulled into the mind stuff and identifies with the thoughts therein and thereof.
It maybe at this point of one's development that one realises that the awareness is local and although realisation that thoughts and emotions are not of the awareness but are a kind delusion imposed by brain washing and hereditary hand me downs and then realises this and ponders 'how do I the awareness get free and out of the this ring fence? This is like sea water as the awareness in a bottle and this water is the soul as it were and the cork the conditioning brainwashing programmed self.
With continual non judgemental observation one can feel oneself gradually popping the cork slightly and so the ocean which is the real Self as it were, can become one and the cork lifted out and it can be that one can almost completely remove the cork and still remain in this flesh form. However the energy of the sea awareness is very energetic and powerful and might blow the bottle or fuses, so that a refining process has to be employed.
I have witnessed those that have raised the energy by kundulini, chi, ki or other names and the bottle has not been able to take the increased energy and the blocks of the personality which are the conditioning process of programming have obstructed the flow, like a boulder in a river or a dam and caused disease, insanity and suicides.
So there is caution; however some people can break through in extraordinary ways, maybe because of karma or being blessed with an exceptionally hardy constitution.
