Why Is Knowledge Of The Soul Needed?

 When we start indeed the concept of the soul , the mind-set is often that of speculation. Could concepts like the souls being creators or the existence of an alternate world be real; as real as the fact that a wooden table is made of wood, or 

are they simply illusions, a part of a fantasy world, which may or may not exist? 

While worrying about what is reality or truth, and what is 

illusion or fantasy, in abstract aspects of life, we need to be 

aware that reality is not an absolute concept, but more a matter 

of perception. Everything is not made of wood and hence 

cannot be measured on the same scale.

The concept of the soul is an abstract concept, as concepts like 

truth, honesty, God or heaven are. The belief that the soul 

exists cannot be seen or touched by the naked eye, as the 

wooden chair can be. Yet, it can prove to be very useful in 

helping us understand our inner selves. 

Those who have a problem with believing in the term ‘soul’, can 

also use alternate terms like ‘‘the inner self’, ‘the me within’ etc. 

Knowing ourselves from within is necessary so that a resonance 

is achieved between our inner needs of evolution and our 

material needs. 

This resonance between external/material or bodily needs, and 

our internal/emotional or soul needs works to ensure that the 

efforts we put in towards achieving what we desire externally, 

get us rewards which give us satisfaction from within. Otherwise, 

it has often been experienced in our world that hard work gets us success 

and money, but does not necessarily lead to happiness.

Finding ourselves, as souls, helps to break this recurring 

dichotomy between the needs of the body and those of the soul. 

When we discover our soul identity, we break free from the 

negative clutches of a so-called reality of life, towards an 

alternate perception of reality, i.e., the reality of life as viewed 

from our soul’s perspective.

For example, a life-threatening problem which may cause us 

intense anxiety from the worldly perspective appears an illusion 

from the perspective of the soul which cannot die. When we 

realize this illusory dimension of worldly matters, we seek to 

understand what the soul is gaining from creating these negative 

experiences, which are essentially unreal. That knowledge aids 

us in healing ourselves by defeating the fatalism within us. 

In this process, we arrive at a more complex dynamics of all that 

which life on Earth entails, from the soul’s perspective of 

evolution. Thus, we reach a higher level of consciousness.

Entering the world of the soul is a step by step process, which 

begins with finding how our subconscious mind works, because 

our subconscious mind is the channel through which 

information passes from the body to the soul and vice versa.

In this book, we use a logic based approach to understand the 

world of our soul. The intention is to bring the soul out of the 

world of magic, into a sphere of scientific logic, wherein we can 

understand its energies and use them with conscious, rational 

awareness to create exactly what we desire in life, in the

emotional or physical plane. 

This is necessary to remove the fear of the unseen realms from 

our rational minds so that we can focus on our dreams without 

being dwarfed by fearing the unexpected, the worst or the 

unknown.

From the soul’s perspective, by developing knowledge of the 

invisible world of the soul, we make our soul’s presence active

while making everyday choices of life. Instead of worshipping 

God on a pedestal, we allow ourselves to take action in 

alignment with the energies of the Oneness. We, thus, put light 

on the hidden or dark parts of our energies and clear channels 

for the Creator’s power to work with us.

We start entering the world of our soul by finding how our 

subconscious mind perceives the external world, how we form a 

positive or negative interpretation of reality, and how our 

perception affects our deep sense of identity. This knowledge 

would later help us decipher how our soul uses the physical 

body to achieve its purpose of incarnation on Earth.
