Soul and Man (Electronic book text)

Insofar as I am able to discover-and I have purposefully not looked very hard-no one has yet come up with an adequate description or definition of the human soul. After attempting to tackle the task for three years, I can easily understand why. Being a forerunner in unexplored and unknown territory carries with it, at first, a level of uncertainty which runs a high risk of making a fool of any intelligent explorer. Ironically, the quest produces only the fool, for the perspective gained from the attempt alone reveals a previously unseen, unfelt, unknown dimension which dwarfs the mind and intelligence of man. Had I not long since come to know myself as a fool, albeit a wise one, I would never have attempted the Herculean task of making the hidden soul more visible. The frame of reference for the soul established in this book is taken from thinking and experience far broader, deeper, and higher than my own-much of it having existed in "secret" teachings thousands of years old. They were secret because mankind was not yet ready for them ... and still may not be! This book is not easy reading. It was never intended to be. It took me 30 years to begin to understand what is written herein. This is really my notebook . open architecture for further thought.
