The Psyche Is The Soul

Human's psyche is what we call soul.
It is the cause of its motion
And the seat of its sensations.
Nondetachable is its character.

Soul in atoms spreads through the organism
With its presence in the organs,
Tissues, cells, nucleus and molecules;
It has no life without body.

Responses to the stimuli,
Perceptions from the experience,
Thought formation and the power
Of imagination are soul's function.

Digestion and excretion,
Respiration and circulation,
Reproduction and repair
Mechanisms are soul's function.

Soul grows when the body grows.
Soul dies when the body dies.
Soul travels through daughter cells
To form a new organism.

Life is soul and body put together;
Light is flame and candle put together.
Light energy can well be created.
Life energy is only extended.
