Excellent, but what is an essence, a source, what is ultimate? How can you define Ultimate? Do you need to or do you have to? Is there an End or Start? How can you show a source? Where is it?..or Where is it comming from??................???


and more important...

I would like to know what you people mean by "soul". What exactly is a Soul?

I would think that that should be asked in a new thread, What is Soul, and not the music kind.

Its hard to explain source, unless you have experienced it in some way. I will try to explain it as best I can... from my point of view to your understanding.

Its like the most beautiful awe inspiring woman you have ever seen thats always around you, but you only can see her when your not looking for her or anything else.


To my knowledge there is no end or start... its the way we perceive time that causes us to think linearly. I guess when a person achieves greater states of awareness the whole linear thing goes away.

Where is source... you experience it when your not looking for it, but intend for it. And supposedly it comes from your greater Self. (capital S)

These questions your asking take alot more in depth study... I think you would gain alot from reading something like ACIM, the Upanishads, the Bhagavad Gita, or something along those lines. Even the series of books by Carlos Castaneda will give a person a great depth into Spirit.

"Seek and you will find."

Words of the bible.

That may be a good place to start.

"Ask and Ye shall recieve...." Has always 'worked' for me as well.

It has worked when I started having OBEs (ones that I remember anyways ) in the last few years.
