Bill and I are both reading (or listening to) The Seat of the Soul by Gary Zukav. I think he would qualify as someone at Marion’s “psychic” level of consciousness. Neither of us have finished it, so our talking about it is a bit premature, but there are definitely bits that resonate. One of them is the idea of contrasting a 5-senses human versus a multi-sensory human. Operating in the 5 senses, one tends to respond to the world via sight, smell, hearing, taste, and touch. If one opens to a multi-sensory reality, one sees or experiences “beyond the veil.” Attending to your dreams is an inroad into multi-sensory reality.
For Zukav, the soul is a concrete fact as are its many lifetimes. The question he is answering is about the evolution of the soul, not whether it exists. One thing that sticks out to me is that our soul is affected by our intention, by our mere thoughts toward a person or thing. That’s sobering.
What is your concept of soul? How do you see your own soul moving through the stages of consciousness? Do you have multi-sensory experiences? Do you think there is an ultimate end or goal? Let us know…
