dark night soul
There can be no rebirth without a dark night of the soul, a total annihilation of all that you believed in and thought that you were.
light shining soul
The souls of all are from one and the same source but a soul which is unveiled shines out. Love and light come continually from such souls. We need no proof of it for it is living all else is dead in comparison.
life beauty soul
The wonderful thing is that the soul already knows to some extent that there is something behind the veil, the veil of perplexity, that there is something to be sought for in the highest spheres of life, that there is some beauty to be seen, that there is Someone to be known who is knowable.

two soul tragedy

thinking people soul
People in the world wish to make things rigid, things which are of the finest nature which words cannot explain.

You must not depend upon my words.
perfect soul body
The body with its perfect mechanism loses power, magnetism, beauty, and brightness, when the soul departs from the body. This shows that the power, magnetism, beauty, and brightness belong to the soul.
