Realm Introduction: The Realm of the Physical

First timers, lost, and confused ones – Start Here!

*Disclaimer: I’m not an established scientist nor philosopher as of yet. I’m just a trying to find my way in the world based on how I see it.

Cultivating one’s soul in the The Five Realms of Humanity should be based around the ‘real’.

‘Real’ as in things that are observable and that have consequences.

Something could be intangible and incorporeal, yet be ‘real’ – like the soul.

As a starting place on this journey to become the optimal and ideal being a human can be, the most important Realm to be introduced first in the Human Experience is the ‘Physical Realm’ (PR).

And here’s why: Even if you do not believe in the concept of the ‘soul’, everything that a human will experience will be through their bodies; to be ‘human’ is to be corporeal, tangible, and organic. Hence, I will refer to ‘all bodies that can encapsulate a soul’ as ‘vessels’.

All of our senses, even spiritual ones, will be expelled into the world through our bodies. Even ‘psychic’ abilities will be channeled through the ‘mind’, which we associate with our ‘brain’, which is an organ of our vessels. Although we still cannot agree what life IS, but we can almost all agree on what life IS NOT; let’s take zombies as an example. “Animated corpses, Living Dead, Reanimated bodies, etc.” are examples of what we call a vessel that takes action without the input of an inhabitant soul. That zombie’s ‘will’ does not come from a need to eat like living vessels do, and neither does it come from a soul, which needs a LIVING vessel to enact its own will.

We label vegetables as ‘brain dead’ despite the body being alive because the soul no longer has a way to enact its will on the vessel. When we talk about the deceased, we say ‘their body is at ________ morgue’ instead of just ‘they’. It’s ingrained in us that we are dualistic in that there is more to humans than just the vessel. Some people won’t agree that the soul is real, but they will agree that their ‘inner monologue’ speaks to an audience member.

Vessels do have a ‘will’ of their own – survival. But what exactly does the vessel have that allows it to exercise this will? D.N.A., essentially. Here’s where I’m going to take a stab in the dark based on what I know about being ‘alive’ vs. something having ‘life’:

-Both bacteria and viruses have ‘life’; although they are not considered ‘alive’, they are considered a type of ‘life-form’.

-If consciousness, will (intent), and es sense (mass/energy/etc.) = being alive is to be believed, then it is specifically because they both lack consciousness (read: self awareness) and, therefore, are slaves to the machinations of D.N.A and R.N.A.

-Some theologies and cultures believe in ‘lower/higher life forms’; a tiered list of which beings have what potential in the universe. From my understanding, the higher the beings’ capacity for intelligence puts them higher on the life-form totem pole. I believe this is another reason as to why we feel okay saying that bacteria has ‘life’ but isn’t ‘alive’; it has a nucleus, but not a ‘brain’ in the way we use it for intelligence. This is also the reason why animals, who do have brains at varying intelligence levels, are considered to have both ‘life’ and be ‘alive’.

When I am referring to certain parts of the body while talking about the PR, I will be referring to how it is used by the ‘vessel’ and NOT how it’s used by the ‘soul’. For a car example, a ‘heart’ is the battery of a vessel while the ‘brain’ is the computer system. The ‘engine’ would be the muscles while the ‘frame’ our bones. (Side note: I think it’s fascinating how we keep building structures in our societies based on constructs we have within our own vessels…) Literally, how the biosystem works with itself and the soul is the PR will refer to.

Whereas with the soul, the ‘heart’ is where emotions lie, and the ‘brain’ is where our ‘mind’ and ‘consciousness’ reside. The soul can use its energy (aka spirit) to permeate our skin and overlay atop of our skin to give us ‘aura’ and ‘spacial awareness’ (think being able to perceive someone approaching you, either from behind or in front, with negative intentions despite not being able to pick up on them from facial expressions or other obvious gestures such as holding a weapon openly).

Same place of existence, different uses of available tools.

No need to get too deep into this for now, this introduction shall suffice. As we delve deeper into the PR, you’ll get a better sense of how to split this realm from the other four.

Thanks always,

S.R.
