YUSEF:
When you recognize that you are both SOUL and BODY—then your life in the human experience changes/expands and may seem at first alien to the way you have been living your life. You may have the sense that you are living two lives—as spirit and in body. You may ask, am I Spirit or am I Human?
As a child you did not separate your Soul from your body. You knew you were only one—a Spirit/Soul experiencing the physical world in a human body. The sense of two, or the sense of separation of soul and human body, develops as a child grows. The human ego begins to see itself as separate from others and its own Soul.
The heavens rejoice when you become aware of your Soul self, and then become aware of your human nature within and AS soul. That is, the Soul is not separate from the human. Each is a part of each. Your human nature is the way your Soul is experiencing the physical world. It is one with your Soul.
The Soul, being Spirit, cannot experience the physical without the joy of coming to earth within a human body.
Thus one spirit, experiencing joy in the physical world, seemingly becomes two. Remember that you are ONE, not two!
