Soul and Spirit

The way to Godhood is through the Soul to the Spirit-Will at the Zenith of the Soul. The Inward Path is Soul-centered, the Outward Path is Spirit-centered. The Soul in the the Evolutionary Christian Church ECC resembles the Spirit of Traditional religions. The Soul is the part of the human psyche which can see and allow the Spirit-Will.

The Father, or Atman, is the deepest part of the Soul, not the deepest part of the Spirit-Will. Atman and the Father are not Godhood. “Christ” is the desire-free, blissful, virtual condition of Godhood, the Father, the Godmind within the Soul. Jesus was both God and man in the sense that he saw and knew this Bliss of the Soul, which is the virtual God within. This means that “Christ” is also an ecumenical state, sharing the Father-Within with other religions which have seen or experienced the same Soul, at the Zenith of the Mind, but naming the experience somewhat different.

In the ECC the Spirit seeks Godhood by activating the material body to evolve from the material to the supermaterial, shaped by evolution from without.

In the Twofold Path of the ECC the Traditional Inward Path leads to the Soul and the Outward Path leads to the Spirit, which then activates life to evolve to Godhood, shaped by evolution from without. Seeing the Outward Path is seeing the “dharma,” the order, getting in harmony with the activating Spirit. This is the Will To Godhood and the Will Of Godhood. The Inward Path gives us a blissful hint of this real Godhood.
