As, it would be consoling indeed if we could solve the sweet mystery of life known as soul!

Through the centuries, humans have tried to define and explain soul. Be it the "breath of living spirit" as Hildegard of Bingen wrote or the essential "whatness" of Aristotle, it is a mystery each of us must unravel on our own. Science or religion cannot tell us with certainty when our individual souls are infused into our bodies or at what stage in dying that they leave. We do not actually know the destination for our souls, but while we have soul, we are challenged to cultivate and nourish our invisible vital essence.

Religions of many persuasions are built around practices to nurture soul; they offer us rules for ritual and doctrines for debate which may or may not facilitate our soul-growth.
