    If anything, I think “mind” might be what you’re looking for. Why complicate things with an indefinable term like soul?

          Eye roll. Just shut it down will you? Why even bother posting if you’re not being constructive? Discussion expands the mind.

          What’s your argument? What’s your experience? I mean, we can investigate this stuff and meditation is pretty amazing.

          So seriously. Gimme something substantial.

              What did I fail to address? The “no the whole concept is just an excuse etc…” or “do you mean mind etc…?”?. Because neither fits the bill.

              Come on, gimme something solid.

              Also, are you into meditation?

                You weren’t listening when I said I did not want to discuss it, and yet here you are, again. Go flex your soul or something.

      “Attention” is a closer match.

      Mind (or “intellect” if you like) is a play of attention upon thoughts.

      Soul would be a kind of attention-body.
