If I am not concerned with my possibilities, I am not concerned with my life.
To accept the idea that a Soul can be created - that is, that we are neither born with a Soul nor denied one - is to accept that spirital work becomes a quest to crystalize our possibilities.
Where do these possibilities come from?
For those that are convinced that we are denied a Soul, that we are just an agglomeration of material stuff that simply disintegrates at death, then the idea of possibilities is meaningless because there is nothing possible beyond materiality.
For those that are convinced that we are born with a fully formed and immortal Soul, the idea of possibilities is equally meaningless because what could be more possible than a fully formed and immortal Soul?
For those that are convinced, both objectively and subjectively, that we need to create a Soul, the idea of possibilities is everything because they must reside in another dimension of reality, a reservoir of Soul.
The real question becomes - How do I access these possibilities?
The concepts of 'potential' (or stored) energy and 'kinetic' (or motion) energy in physics are well known, and used daily for solving engineering problems. Yet, underlying these concepts is a fundamental mystery. Somehow, certain forces, such as electromagnetic and gravitational, if manipulated in specific ways by objects or entities, can 'draw-on' the energy stored in the world of possibilities and transform it into the energy of motion (or movement) for use in the world of material manifestation.
