You're not human. Your body is a possession of yours; you, as the real you, are not your body. You're something much greater than a human.
You are a soul. You don't have a soul; you are the soul itself, living in human form currently. Let me cut through the illusions: you think you're human, but that's just surface-level reality.
Think: when you say "I," what are you really pointing to? Your flesh and bones? Your thoughts?
Your emotions? No, you're gesturing at something way deeper, expansive, timeless, ageless. You're pointing to you as awareness; you as consciousness; you as the soul.
I'm now giving you part two of our "leave body" series. Really pay attention here; I don't want the nuance to fly over your head, as this is a very sensitive topic. You don't say "I am body"; you say "my body.
" You don't say "I am hand"; you say "my hand. " Your body is just your body; it's not the real you. And since you're in a human body, you yourself are not human.
Breathe. Listen. Ancient Kemet had some of the earliest wisdom when it comes to the true nature of the soul and existence.
The Emerald Tablets of Tahuti, the oldest ancient tablet known to man, dating back over 36,000 years ago, Tahuti says: "Man, ye think that ye liveth; but know it is life within death; for as sure as ye are bound to your body, for you know life exists. " Your physical existence, which you've been taught to identify with, is actually a limited form compared to your true self. Let this bubble in your brain for a minute: your body, which you've been conditioned to believe is you, is actually just a temporary vessel for something far greater.
You are not your body. In another passage of the tablets, Tahuti says: "Only the soul is space-free; has life that is really a life; all else is only a bondage, a fed from which to be free. " In Hindu philosophy, they call this greater something "Atman," the individual soul, the eternal, unchanging self.
The Upanishads state, "Tat tam asi"—"thou art that. " You're not separate from the universal consciousness; you are it—a part of it. It lives within you as you live within it.
But how can you be something beyond your body, beyond your thoughts and emotions? The answer lies in understanding the nature of consciousness itself. Vedic philosophy breaks it down into four states of consciousness: waking, dreaming, deep sleep, and turiya.
The first three you know well, but it's the fourth state, turiya, that holds the key to your true nature. Turiya is pure consciousness—awareness without an object. It's the canvas on which all experience is painted.
Think: in a dream, you experience a world as real as this one, with its own laws and logic. I bet that each time you dream, you're totally wrapped up in it—absorbed in it, as if it's your normal waking state. And when you wake up, you realize it was all a projection of your mind.
What if this waking state is just another dream, another projection? What if you, as pure consciousness, are the dreamers of both states? This isn't abstract philosophy; it's a practical understanding that can transform your entire existence.
When you realize that you, as the soul, are not your body, not your thoughts, not your emotions, but the awareness that perceives all these, you gain the potential for true freedom. That potential, when fully tapped into, can transform into the ability to leave your body at will. You would be consciously existing as a boundless spirit.
You can break free from the limitations of the physical world. You can leave your body, breathe, feel. The Tibetan Book of the Dead speaks of the Bardo state, a state of consciousness existing without physical form.
In this state, the soul encounters various apparitions, both peaceful and wrathful. These apparitions are said to be higher-dimensional entities, some working for positive and others for negative purposes. The enlightened soul sees through the illusion and gains liberation from any wrathful entities.
You are that soul right now; at this moment, you're experiencing the human state, but it's not who you are—it's an experience you're having, a role you're playing. If you want to learn how to break free from this role, then give us a like and subscribe. We'll continue to teach you how while you help us grow.
Now, let me teach you about the evolution of the soul. [Music] Okay, so if you're not your body, if you're an immortal soul having a temporary human experience, what does that mean for your existence? Well, it means that your current life is just one chapter in a timeless journey of evolution and growth beyond space and time.
Reincarnation isn't about your body being reborn; it's about you, the soul, choosing, or in some instances being forced to, incarnate in different forms to learn, grow, and evolve. Each lifetime is a classroom filled with wisdom, and most of that wisdom is in the seemingly mundane. Each experience brings you, as the soul, a lesson, and it's your job to decipher and understand the true meanings of those lessons.
In the Bhagavad Gita, Krishna tells Arjuna, "As a person puts on new garments, giving up old ones, the soul similarly accepts new material bodies, giving up the old and useless ones. " Let me say that again: Krishna says, "As a person puts on new garments, giving up old ones, the soul similarly accepts new material bodies, giving up the old and useless ones. " Your body is like a garment that you, the soul, wear for a time and then discard.
You are not human, and that's okay. Breathe, think, feel. But why would an immortal soul choose to limit itself in a physical form?
The answer lies in the nature of spiritual evolution. Just as a. .
. Muscle grows stronger through resistance; a soul grows in wisdom and soul force through the challenges of physical existence. Soul force is what Tahuti, also known as Th, the Atlantean, describes as the heart of the flame.
The ancient Egyptians called it Rah; the Vedas, Prana; the Taoists, Chi. It's all the same. Soul force—and that force isn't just within your body; it's one with the universal spirit of creation.
Breathe. Haven't your greatest growth moments come from your biggest challenges? Haven't your deepest insights emerged from your darkest times?
This is the purpose of physical incarnation: to provide the friction necessary for you, as the soul, to grow in soul force. The Emerald Tablets of Tahuti say, "Man is a star bound to a body until, in the end, he is freed through his strife. " Your struggles, your pains, your joys—they're all part of a grand process of evolution.
In Tibetan Buddhism, they believe that highly evolved souls can choose the circumstances of their rebirth. These are the Tulku. In other cultures, it's the Bodhisattva: enlightened beings who consciously incarnate to help others.
But even if you're not at that level of evolution yet, you're still making choices in the Bardo state between lives. You, as the soul, look back and review your past lives and choose the conditions for your next incarnation based on what you need to learn. Let me say that again: between lives, you, as the soul, look back on your past incarnation.
You then pick the circumstances for your next life based on the lessons you need to learn and the growth you need to experience. This is why the Tibetan practice of phowa is crucial in their tradition. It prepares you for the moment of death and the choices that follow.
It teaches you to recognize the true nature of reality, even in the face of death, allowing you to make conscious choices about your next incarnation. You're on a timeless journey of soul evolution. Your current lifetime, with all its ups and downs, is just one chapter of a big adventure.
Comment below if you want to truly experience timelessness as a soul consciously. Now, let's expand our understanding even further. The soul isn't just a singular entity; it's multi-dimensional, with different aspects functioning on different levels of reality.
The ancient Egyptians, or Kmetic people, had a profound understanding of the soul's complexity. They didn't just see a single soul but multiple aspects, each with its own function. The Ka is your ethereal double or astral body; it's the sustaining power of life and consciousness, closely tied to your physical form but able to exist independently after death.
The Ba, often depicted as a human-headed bird, is different; it's the transcendent aspect of you as the soul, free to move between physical and spiritual realms. It's not limited to personality traits, like some think, but there's more. The Ak is your transformed, enlightened spirit; the Sahu is your spiritual body; the Akim is your life force or power; and the Ib, your heart, is the seat of conscience and emotions.
This Kmetic wisdom of the soul and its properties isn't just ancient wisdom; it's a complex map of your multi-dimensional nature, showing aspects of yourself that go far beyond just body and mind. Breathe. Think.
The Aztecs believed in multiple souls. They spoke of the divine fire or Yollotl, which survived death and journeyed to the afterlife. This concept of multiple soul aspects isn't unique to them; it's found in cultures all over the world, each offering a unique perspective on the complex nature of our true selves.
Greek philosopher Plato proposed a tripartite model of the soul: reason, spirit, and appetite. These weren't separate entities, but aspects of a unified whole, each with its own role in the functioning of the human being. In Taoist thought, there's the concept of Hun and Po: the heavenly and earthly souls.
Hun is associated with Yang energy and is thought to leave the body after death, while Po is associated with Yin energy and remains with the body. The Norse had an intricate understanding of the soul; they believed in multiple aspects, including the Hamr (shape or appearance) and the Fetch (a sort of guardian spirit). What all these traditions point to is that you, as a soul, are far more complex and multifaceted than you've been led to believe.
You're not just a single point of awareness, but a rich, multi-dimensional being with aspects that operate on different levels of reality. Think about your dreams again. In a dream, you can be simultaneously the observer and the participant, the creator and the created.
This is a glimpse into your true multi-dimensional nature. The Kabbalistic tradition speaks of different levels of the soul, with Neshamah being the highest level, connected directly to the Divine. This is your true self, your highest aspect, always in communion with the universal consciousness.
In Sufism, there's the concept of Ruh, the immortal spirit that exists before and after physical life; it's described as a ray of divine light, a direct emanation from the source of all being. You're not just a body, not human; you're not just a mind, not even just a single soul. You're a multi-dimensional being of light and consciousness, with aspects that span multiple levels of reality.
How do you live from this understanding? How do you navigate the human experience while knowing you're not human? First, recognize that your body is a tool, a vehicle for your expression in the physical world.
Treat it with respect; care for it, but don't identify with it. Your body is not you; it's yours. Get your possessive pronouns right.
Your thoughts and emotions are not you either; they're experiences you're having, weather patterns in the sky of your consciousness. Observe them, learn from them, but don't get caught up in them. Practice presence.
Be fully here. Now, in each moment, this is how you align with your true nature as pure awareness. Live with purpose; you chose to incarnate for a reason.
Seek to understand that reason and align your life with it. This is how you fulfill your soul's mission. Practice meditation and other spiritual techniques; these are tools for quieting the noise of the human experience and tuning into your true nature.
You are a soul, a son of the Sun, an immortal being of light and consciousness, having a temporary human experience. Live from this truth and watch as your life becomes an expression of divine grace and power.
