The Strength to Change
Spirit is the omniscient watcher. It has no end or beginning. It is eternal, deathless and unchanging. It has no qualities. In essence, it is pure unconditional love, the core state.
Soul resists accepting spiritual truth because it fears emptiness or losing identity. As you shift from seeing the world through conditioned filters of the mind, concepts fall away. Consciousness (or emptiness) is always looking through “you.” Being authentic is seeing things and people as they are: a divine reflection.
