You don’t have a Soul. You are a soul. You have a body. — Buddha

You don’t have a Soul. You are a soul. You have a body.

Author: Buddha

Insight: You're not a body that occasionally thinks about meaning—you're the awareness itself, temporarily wearing flesh. It flips how we usually panic about aging or illness; the real "you" is the observer watching all that happen, not the thing being watched.
