Who said the soul is pure. It is as pure as 1 kg of metal in hundred kilograms of ore. To remove the impurities within... to remove the 99% impurities and separate 1 kg of metal... every soul atman requires a series of 8.4 million manifestations and a life journey of 96.4 million earthly years. Only then the soul atman regains its pure original pristine form and goes back to the kingdom of God (aka Baikuntha in Hinduism).

If all souls' atmans in the Cosmos were pure... the need for a Cosmos would not have arisen. The sole purpose of cosmic life is all souls' atmans gaining release from the cycle of birth and death... the manifest life cycle of 8.4 million manifestations. The moment all souls atmans reach the stage of enlightenment (kaivalya jnana)... the last leg in the cosmic life cycle... it is all over for the present Cosmos.

That very moment... the whole Cosmos would collapse. The dissolution of the Cosmos that would result... Would end in the whole Cosmos reducing to the size of half a thumb! This half a thumb is the volume of all purified souls atmans in the Cosmos at a given point of time. Unable to contain itself for long in this highly volatile state... the cluster of all purified souls atoms again explodes with a big bang... giving rise to a new cosmos... a new cosmic life cycle!

Every soul atman starts its cosmic journey as an amoeba (single cell formation)... the first manifestation! It subsequently evolves into multi-cell formation, insect life, plant life, animal life and finally the form of a human being. For each and every soul atman... this journey of cosmic life continues until every human being reaches the stage of enlightenment and finally salvation (moksha).

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!
