2 questions

[DaveTyler]

How do you percieve the spiritworld? I mean do you SEE the spirit in the room your in ?Or is it all in the mind, anyone can close their eyes and visualize spirits, but that is all in their imagination isnt it? Otherwise when you dream you enter the spiritworld? Astral world and spirit world is not the same?

Also can you lose your soul, give it away or have it stolen?

[Erin Pavlina]

Can't lose your soul but you can be in a state where you think it has been stolen or lost, yes.

I don't see spirits with my eyeballs. But I do see and hear them. I would see them even if I was blind.

For some people it may be imagination and for others it is not.

[AndreaHess]

Intuitive perception of other entities or spirits varies from one individual to the next. It depends whether you are visual, auditory, kinesthetic, etc. in your senses of these things.

If you think of imagination as the way in which we access non-ordinary reality, then it is no small surprise that our intuitive perception is very close to our imagination. The difference is that, when we receive intuitive information, we are in a receptive state. When we imagine, we are actually the director of the show. When we receive intuitively, we are just the audience. It takes a while to tune in to this difference, but it is distinct.

The Soul consists of 617 facets, and these facets can be lost through trauma, theft by negative entities, given away mistakenly or on purpose, etc. I encounter clients with Soul facet loss with a fair amount of frequency in my practice. These facets can be reclaimed (we can clear anything once we are conscious of it - intent and free will rules all!). Often the facets are being kept by another Soul or a negative entity. This sort of situation can create a lot of negativity.

When a Soul loses more than 50% of its facets, it does fall into such a state of decay that it cannot maintain integrity, and dies. I know we think our Soul is immortal, but it is not in fact invulnerable.

So how canyou know for sure if it has happpened?

After what I've read:

"I am my soul, and I am the real mystery called life. Soul does not exist as an "it," apart from personality. Rather, the soul consists of content, the totally unique creation -- truly the image of God -- that we call the person."


If you soul died, you would to? and another thing how could ever thoughts alter soul? thoughts can only affect mind, like phyiscal actions can only affect physical world. soul and spirit is beyond both?

[AndreaHess]

I like that description of the Soul! Yes, if your Soul died, you would, too. The Soul is the animating force that makes you "alive." It is a piece of Divine Source, and it is how we receive vital force energy from Source.

BUT thought does alter the Soul - the reason we come here into a third-dimensional existence is to experience Soul evolution and growth. We come into an environment of free will and free choice. Through the choices we make here in the physical, we actually allow our Soul to advance - or not.

You can't separate the physical, mental, and spiritual - they are reflections of each other. Remember, all is One. Here in the third dimension, though, we create through conscious intent, so our thought energy very powerfully affects the Soul.

Well I really didn't lose my soul.....it ran off one day !
Something about looking for the right rock for it's rock garden...I dunno.

But I tracked it down and gave it a good talking to.

[DaveTyler]

AndreaHess, if this was somehow true. When your soul "dies" does it come to the spirit realm and is recovered by God andit just "dies" in this life or what?

Hi Andrea, I was just curious how you arrived at the conclusion that our souls have exactly 617 facets. Could you elaborate please? Thanks.

[Ijin Kaion]

617 facets or 617 buildingblocks wich makes the soul is basically the issue.

a soul is in fact very vunerable, as vunerable as it`s possessor.
there are many ways to clear the soul or to destroy the soul.
but when it is destroyed you die indeed.

so 617 steps before your soul is completely dead, and 50% of it renders it unable to sustain itself and will slowly decay.
there are many poetic ways to express the soul, and some cannot be satisfied untill they have seen, i`m blind for energy for instance, but i do know what it is and where it is and what it does.

so as to perception of the astral, ethereal, etc.., it is not just what you should see, but what you should know from within.

the poetic comparrison of the soul and god was made.
as first anyone can be a god.
as second if god is our own reflection then consider that all the things we embody is also what embodies god as we know him from the bible.

and that would mean that god is no more then your average joe really.

but enough about god, the point is that there is more then we understand naturally.
so i seek to understand beyond, aswell as i will go beyond to understand.
there are people in many stages of that journey all over the world and each awaiting their destiny once it unfolds to them so they can act upon it.

what will you do?

You believe you are dead.

You're infinite, the only thing that can hurt you is yourself.

I can't take credit for originating that particular nugget of info - that comes from one of my teachers, Dr. Mitchell Gibson of Tybro.com. However, I've confirmed this in the Akashic Records and applied it with a lot of clients in my practice - so I'm highly confident in this information.

Well, if the Soul truly "dies" because it cannot maintain integrity, then it ceases to exist as an entity. Of course, the energy does get absorbed by Divine Source - all is One, after all.

I recently read a quote attributed to Joan of Arc, at her trial: "How else would God speak to me but through my imagination?"

The difference, for me, is that I don't initiate or visualise spiritual things. They come to me, and they're not actually in my own head. They're experienced in a space sort of... outside of my head, but not part of the material plane. It's a bit like having an earphone in one side that lets me hear (and otherwise experience) spiritual phenomena while still being aware of the material world around me.

Pretty sure I'm not just imagining it, because there have been plenty of experiences that other people also had, independently of me (earthbound spirits, for example, and negative imprints, that sort of thing).

A thing doesn't have to be literal to be true, and, as Joan said, how else would God (or whomever) speak to me? (I guess he could send a televangelist, but I'm not too likely to listen, are you? )
