What do we mean when we speak about the soul? What are the arguments for the existence of the soul as distinct from the physical body? Do animals have souls? What is the difference between the mind and the soul? The Soul Hypothesis brings together experts from philosophy, linguistics and science to discuss the validity of these questions in the modern world. They contend that there is an aspect of the nature of human beings that is not reducible to the matter that makes up our bodies. This perspective is part of a family of views traditionally classified in philosophy as substance dualism, and has something serious in common with the ubiquitous human belief in the soul. The Soul Hypothesis presents views from a range of sciences and the resulting big picture shows, more clearly than could a single author with one area of expertise, that there is room for a soul hypothesis.

The essays in this book began simply as tools I incorporated to enhance my understanding of A Course in Miracles and how it blends with the literature I have read and classes and seminars I have taken. Our friends and teachers, Unity minister Patty and her husband Jack Morales introduced my wife, Pati, and I to A Course in Miracles fifteen or so years after we had begun our spiritual journey(s). Each of us are in pursuit of our own respective spiritual paths, in our own individual ways as part of a life-long search for our "purpose" in life; trying to discover who we "truly" are, not the persona we've made up. It just takes some of us longer to realize it. We began with a small core group of people committed to their spiritual paths and it has grown steadily since. As the group expanded in numbers, so did the questions and people began to look to my wife and I for clarification. I realized then, that for myself, I needed to put more effort into my understanding of A Course in Miracles and how it coincided with what I had studied previously, beginning with my lineage, The Science of Mind. I began with notes for comparison, which grew into paragraphs and eventually ended up as the essays in this book. They (the essays) became, for me, a bridge between A Course in Miracles, The Science of Mind, the Gnostic Gospels, and various other religions and teachings. I am a perennial student and will probably be as long as I continue to breathe. My search for understanding, for clarification, may not be insatiable, but I cannot remember a time when I wasn't studying something, so when my wife introduced me to metaphysics, I knew that this was what I would make the topic of all my studying in the future. These essays are the essence of the information I've extracted from this process. My purpose with these essays is not to provide you with what I think to be the "only" or "right" answers to any questions, but as an explanation, understanding or clarification that resonates for me and hopefully for you. We are all unique in our individual perceptions, so my perception of some subjects may not mirror yours, but if one, or some, of my essays bring a light of understanding or help to you, or assist you in seeing an old truth in a new way, then we are both blessed. It is my belief that all gifts are meant to be shared, be it the gift our friendships, our love or our knowledge, because if we keep them to ourselves, they are of no value to anyone. If these essays provide for you a better understanding or just simplify your path, in any manner, please share them, because as St. Francis said, in his beautiful prayer, "It is in the giving that we receive."
