Document Summary

Part 1: yes: more in tune= more of a soul, less in tune= less of a soul, everyone says this idea is crazy, problem: either so(cid:373)ethi(cid:374)g is a soul or it is(cid:374)"t a soul. If you say there are degrees of attunement, you are saying there are degrees of a soul. I was just kidding: better answer; no there are not degrees of attunement, does not admit degrees, there is either a soul or not a soul. Part 3: yes and no: all souls need to be equal (to be souls, all souls need to be unequal (qualities of the soul) 10 10 10 10 equally in tune. +1 +5 +7 +10 accounting for qualities/ attributes. Problem: a wicked/ ignorant soul is a 10+1=11, a virtuous & wise soul is 10+10= 20. Ie: running the track: body says lay down, take a break, reason says, keep going, run the marathon, you can either conform to the body or say no.
