Today's Thought:

If You Want to Know God-You Have to Taste God
uploaded from Bhaktivedanta Ashram--Austin, Texas USA

To  the extent that we absorb ourselves in devotional service, to that extent we will realize God. In other words, God is not realized academically. He is realized experientially. One understands God by experiencing God. If one tries to understand academically what is the experience of eating pudding, he will never get a complete, perfect understanding. But if he simply tastes the pudding, he will get immediate perfect comprehension. So, if you want to know God, you have to taste God. In this way, and only in this way can you fully comprehend what is God. The tasting process is devotional service, serving the Lord with love, not begrudgingly or mechanically, but with warmth, with love and affection.

Question: Difference Between Soul and Spirit?


What is the soul? what is the difference between soul and spirit?

Johanna


Answer: They are One and the Same


The soul and the spirit are synonyms. Therefore the term "spirit-soul" has been used by great spiritual masters. That spirit-soul is an indestructible, indivisible, immeasurable, constitutionally steady, unborn, all-cognizant, ever-blissful particle of anti-material energy. It dwells within the body, seated in the heart, as the driver of the machine known as the material body. In conditioned consciousness one does not fully experience his spirit-soul identity. But upon being awakened by a bona fide spiritual master, the spirit-soul becomes fully re-situated in his original, eternal, constitutional glory and thus becomes liberated from the cycle of birth and death.
