Edgar Casey, Said to be a Psychic

claimed some people don’t have souls
maybe you believe that I don’t

but I’m not sure if a soul is different
from a person’s consciousness

and I’m not sure if people really have souls
for example, have you ever seen your soul
and if you are reading this now
you are experiencing a level of your consciousness

I can’t recall sages of the east talking about souls
but I do recall them talking about a person consciousness
that could be elevated by spiritual work
to higher states of consciousness
but I never heard them talking about higher states of soul

and it just occurred to me that if all of us are soulless
possessing consciousness instead
in a way Edgar Casey was half right
