Soul

Saints explain that the soul is a drop of the Divine Ocean
Separated from her source
she has become caught in the net of illusion
and has taken the mind as her companion

The mind
however
is in the grip of the senses
and dances to their tune

Whatever it does under their influences
the soul has also to reap the consequences

- Maharaj Charan Singh, Spiritual Discourses, 1995
