How does believing we are souls help us in our daily lives?

 

 

Tom: So by believing that we are souls, how will that help us in our daily lives?

 

Guru: We can see everyone as souls rather than bodies.

 

Tom: Okay, then?

 

Guru: We don’t differentiate ourselves with others by the differences in our bodies.

 

Tom: You mean we don’t differentiate ourselves by different races.

 

Guru: Right, there’s only one race and that’s the human race.

 

Tom: No more “us and them”.

 

Guru: We see everyone as souls, and we’re all the same.

 

Tom: We look for sameness rather than differences.

 

Guru: Yes, it’s like we’re all air and there is only one air covering the entire Earth.

 

Tom: We are all one.

 

Guru: We’re all connected so we look for cooperation rather than competition.

 

Tom: Your gain is my gain, and your loss is my loss.

 

Guru: We look for win-win solutions rather than “I win and you lose” scenarios.

 

Tom: So we’re all winners.

 

Guru: Wouldn’t life be better this way?

 

Tom: Better? It’ll be heaven on Earth.
