Life after death? - Religion and the Human Mind - Beliefnet Community
Exploringinside:
"Humans have spirit and don’t have a soul. I believe spirit is a mental faculty that is experienced though the results of its function. Spirit bridges the gap between reason and emotion, allowing the “aha moments” to surface. Spirit guides and helps employ our senses of empathy and benevolence.
The words 'spirit' and 'spiritual' refer to real aspects of human experience, namely the mental aspects of human life. 'Spiritual values' are those values that fulfill the needs of human consciousness [rather than the survival needs associated with those things such as food, water, warmth, etc that sustain the body.] For example, the determination to strive toward one’s goals is generated from human spirit.
An encounter with art that calls out our emotions and sense of life, but that does not primarily address any physical need, is a spiritual encounter.
Information that just 'pops' into a person's consciousness is identified as coming from the function of intuition, another of the mental faculties."
Thanks EI I wish I had said it.
