"There is, in the soul, something eternal. But the soul is not internal. Because the soul goes through it's karma as it uses up the incarnations, and then [snaps fingers] that's the end of soul. But soul has in it awareness, or God. And that part of us that's 'in soul'..., that is eternal.

If you consider us three levels of perception beings, human beings, the outer ring is the ego, the inner ring are the souls, the third thing is the eternal..., the eternal awareness.

And then..., so the soul's as fingers of God's awareness. It's like psudopods. Like you're living in your perception. I'm living in my perception. Both of them are part of God's perception."
