Soul's Seven Stages -1

Hi folks!

Have you started identifying the dramas around you?!

Start it as a fun exercise.

You may be able to identify many more such traits too.

Sometime later, I will add a few more to the basic list of 4 already given.

Today I want to share with you, a theory about the evolution of our soul.

Read it as an an interesting exposition, even if you do not believe in the existence of one!

All souls are part of the Divine Source and leave it to enjoy for themselves the joy of creation.

Their journey is always towards the source, but when they leave, they start from the bottom.

It is like a boy who wants to become a scientist.

He has to go to the Nursery first, then the Primary School.

Learn the alphabets, words and sentences, paragraphs and subjects.

Then the high school, college and other higher specialised studies.

Along the way, he learns social skills, sports,modes of enjoyment etc. which may or may not be good for his ultimate aim.

He may also, for a while in school or during holidays forget his chosen aim,but will get back to it, eventually.

Thats how it is, with our soul!

The soul which has left the original source,is totally new to the environment.

Its one and only instinct and over-riding need is survival.

Though those born in primitive conditions, in deep forests and gorges are examples of INFANT SOULS, I think if you take instincts into account, such people are found everywhere in the world.

In cities, rich countries,poor neighbourhoods-almost everywhere,you will see those who avoid stepping out into the unknown.

They are frightened for their lives.

Once the basic survival issues have been dealt with after many lifetimes as an infant soul, comes the stage of the BABY SOUL.

They dont think that everyone is out to kill them or that they have to kill in order to survive, but they still feel safe only in a rigid structure, either religious or political or ideological.

They are blind followers,ready for violence against perceived threats to their safety.

We find them all over the world as grassroot workers of political parties, cult-followers, foot-soldiers, followers of monastic orders of all religions and sects etc.

The strict rules ,discipline and structure gives them a feeling of safety, of belonging.

The baby soul slowly learns to get over its fears and be comfortable in living its life in the society.

Now it starts to think like an individual and wants to check how strong it can become.

This is the YOUNG SOUL, learning and wanting to dominate, be independent.

Look around and you will see them striving for fame, wealth and power.

They want everything their way.

They display various skills, powers of persuasion over masses by their oratory, a sharp mind for business,a dictatorial attitude.

These are some examples.

It is the baby souls who make the young souls possible, as both feed on each other.

All over the world, political leaders of all leanings, military and religious dictators, cult leaders, business tycoons etc fall under this category.

In todays post, I will leave you with this to chew over!

Does this answer a question as to why that unidentifiable mass of people or society behaves the way it does?

Because at any given time there are all types residing in it.

The infant, baby and young souls,apart from the 4 others.

Do you fall in any of the categories mentioned above?

Bye for now.
