Does anyone here know how to find your spiritual race? Like the kind of spirits you come from and stuff.
Thanks
Mortals only have souls, so if you received a spirit then you're from the immovable race :}

As far as I'm concerned, we're all just "consciousness".
No defining characteristic differences from consciousness to consciousness.
I didn't know it, but in some gnostic texts they say that the mind, or consciousness, is a power of the soul, or 'the lamp'.
A power of the soul, eh?
I wonder what metaphor that's comparable to. LoL
I am curious about that question... I have no idea if there is a way to find out what "type" of soul one has.
Or even if souls vary in type.
I would say it may possible for to be souls to be constructed differently. All souls are the same of course in the grand sense. All being consciousness. Despite that all things may just be energy there is much variety in this universe. I don't see what would stop souls sometimes having slightly different makeup which would give the sense of separate "races".
I hope this makes sense. I don't want to sound too silly. :-D

In this thread I read both things about spirit or soul- so I guess I'd start by asking what you consider a spirit or a soul to be, and how it has to do with personality (a construct dependent on the nervous system and it's environment) and why it would have a 'type'.
Just curious.
Even though I agree that in manifestation there is always a point of view and by extension, comparison (relativism) I'm not sure what this has to do with 'origin' (for lack of a better term).
Every creature produced by the authorities has a soul, it is what animates these bodies. The spirit is the hope for salvation, it is what empowers the soul. Spirits are sent by God so that the soul may perfect itself, and become pure enough to be rescued from this universe to the eternal realms.
Those who only have a soul remain under the rule of the authorities, since they belong to them.
