Yes, consciousness is woven into the very fabric of the entire Cosmos (the present Cosmos contains many universes). Our soul atman present within every living being is the cosmic consciousness that governs the whole system. It is this consciousness... our soul atman present within our heart that has manifested this body and not vice versa.

It is this consciousness which demands release from the cycle of manifestations. To remove the dross within... this cosmic consciousness... our soul atman within manifests a series of life forms one after another until the last... the 8.4 millionth manifestation! Only then this supreme consciousness gets released from the cycle of manifesting life forms one after another.

The whole essence of the Cosmos is based on the premise that to remove the dross within... this cosmic consciousness has to work out its karma through a chain of bodies it manifests. On its own this cosmic consciousness cannot remove the impurities within. It is like the pieces of metal sandwiched in a big lump of ore. As this metal requires the requisite mining machinery for processing... the cosmic consciousness requires manifesting bodies after another.

The Cosmos exists because cosmic consciousness exists. All living beings including human beings exist because cosmic consciousness exists. The sole purpose of every life is the consciousness within trying to regain its pure pristine original form. The moment this consciousness comes to its original pure pristine form... it goes back to the kingdom of God (aka Baikuntha in Hinduism).

Define Soul
A soul (aka atman in Hinduism) is pure cosmic energy... much beyond the comprehension of most human beings! The spirit as detailed in Christianity and our soul atman within means the same. The definition of soul atman has been wrongly interpreted in Christianity. It is our soul atman that manifests the human form to work out its karma... remove impurities within!

Human Soul
The human Soul... the cosmic spirit... a cluster of pure celestial energy is not different from soul atman within an insect, plant or an animal! The only variance being the level of purity! The human form is the highest manifest stage in the cosmic life cycle of soul atman within. It is the human soul that has manifested the body and not vice versa.

Do Animals have a Soul
If we try to understand the complete analogy of the spiritual system... the cosmic system built by God Almighty... all becomes absolutely clear! Whether animals have a soul atman or insects have a soul atman within is not further debatable! We only need to understand why God made the Cosmos in the first place!

Define Soul Spirit
The soul and the spirit mean the same. The soul atman is of the form of pure cosmic energy! The spirit within every human being... the soul atman within our heart is God Almighty in minuscule form... the essence of all being the same! To remove the dross within (impurities within) every soul atman manifests a cycle of 8.4 million manifestations to work out its karma. It is our soul atman that has manifested the body and not vice versa.

Reincarnation of Soul
I not only believe that our soul atman lives on after the death of the body... I am practically a living example of that! Having realized God in 1993... I reached the last leg of cosmic life... the 8.4 millionth manifestation! This is my last life as a soul atman! Having gained absolute purity I have nowhere else to go but to the kingdom of God (aka Baikuntha in Hinduism). I have reached the Mount Everest of my spiritual pursuit!
