The Soul, the Spirit-Will, and Godhood


The Spirit-Will exists as long as there is primal matter to be activated by the Spirit-Will. If not, where matter dies out the Spirit-Will would die out, although it never seems to do so in the cosmos. The Spirit-Will is not Godhood, It's central motivation is to evolve to Godhood by activating primal matter to do so.

The Soul is more of an anthropomorphic thing, existing at the Zenith of the Mind as a state of material-free desires, a blissful emptiness brought about by individual ascetic discipline. The Soul is the I Am-ness that mystics speak of but it is not the bodiless-objectless thing they often describe it as. It is the state of the mind made free of desires while it is still dependent on the mind in the body.

Traditional religions have put up a Great Spiritual Blockade by affirming only the Soul-Goal, but we should more importantly also be attending the Goal of the Spirit-Will which is Real Godhood. Mystics have been too willing to rest in the witness of their own awareness of the empty yet blissful Soul. The Soul gives a glimpse of the God-mind as it may be when evolution reaches Godhood, but the Soul is not Godhood anymore than the Spirit-Will is Godhood. In the Twofold Path of the Theoevolutionary Church the Soul is the Goal of the Involutionary Inward Path and Godhood is the Goal of the Evolutionary Outward Path.

Godhood is more difficult to define since we will not fully know Godhood until we have evolved to Godhood. All the Absolutes of Truth, Goodness and Beauty would be contained in Godhood. Eternal Representation may also be attained in Godhood as the ultimate goal of survival and reproduction in the cosmos.  The higher we evolve the more we will know Godhood.
