GOD SPEAKING TO US
The soul
is our divine essence, itself the manifestation of God within. Even though this assertion is not amenable to absolute proof, mankind
from time immemorial has known it to be so.Faith
alone gives us this assurance.
It is
trite to say we are all familiar with our own body. But what do we know of our soul? To be sure, the soul is not a topic of
everyday discussion, although we acknowledge its religious connotation. That
the soul is not, and has never been, a matter of inquiry and ongoing study
serves only to confirm mankind’s addiction to secular materialism.
Paying
only lip service to the soul while ignoring its role in our overall well-being
is to deprive ourselves of the fullness of life.How,
then, does the soul interact with the brain, that which gives rise to the
oft-troubled mind? This is not an idle question, the answer to which means our
very salvation.
Reason
and Intuition suggest that the interaction of the
soul with the brain is physiological phenomenon, something very real and
tangible. Proper exercise of the will (i.e.,
positive thinking) in turn excites healing waves of
electric and chemical forces in the brain and throughout the body. With the
mind thus quieted the elusive soul is enabled to play its divinely preordained
role—that of restoring and reinvigorating our own innate Goodness.
