but I still wonder whether it is or is not possible to be in touch with your soul?
Do you mean touching physically..Like looking and touching another person standing before you?
No this is not possible since your self conciousness is your very own soul..
Trying to see or be in touch with other souls means looking at creation or the origin of the matter from
another existance that is not revealed to any of us currently until of course we all die and get resurrected in the hereafter...
this veil of physical or material illusion will be removed from our eyes at the next stage when we discover our true form of existence. "thou wast indeed heedless of this, but now We have removed from thee thy (material) veil, and so thy sight is sharp this day" 50:22. Sharp vision implies that one discovers one’s life preserved within it to its minutest detail.Salvia is a plant that was discovered, not engineered, so I wonder, why has God put it here? And I didn't say I want to "access" my soul to prove God's existence, I just want to.
Noting is created for no reason, however, if God wills, something can be created for no reason tho..Still we are created in a world where everthing is dependant on one another,,
at a deeper level of reality all things in the universe are infinitely interconnected..Salvia other than being an ordinary plant is also designed or created with special features to be a natural narcotic, sedative like opium or marijuana.. in the very old days when people couldn’t be operated on with gases as general anesthetic (advanced science), perhaps with the wisdom of god such plants were made availabe to humanity to be the knowledge to operate on patients without causing the feeling of physical pain while staying unconscious..as well as using them like antidepressant agent to sedate mentally difficult or struggling patients..
God says in the quran that he is the Planner, Designer, Architect, Sustainer & Nourisher of all his creation and has never let humans be unguided or helpless and whomever willed knowledge for whatever good reason s/he was given that knowledge as long as we stayed good and showed effort..
Wouldn't you love to know the world of souls and spirits? Wouldn't we all?
Yes we would, but then again if we could know we would not be in this world striving to develop ourselves to the highest level of spiritual and intellectual enlightment..
what we normally see in our dreams in rem sleep or when you are in sleep induced by salvia will not be different in nature..
Also note that dreams are not always true. There are many kinds of them. Some of them are divine blessings and some are satanic influence. Some others are mere working of mind. We cannot always differentiate between them. That is why if we have a good dream, we thank god and believe that god will bless us if we follow the path of His liking. However, they do not entail any action from our part. What we have to do and believe has been provided us through the quranic law. No more guidance is given by God through dreams. This is because they are not a sure way of communication. God has declared that no religious communication is possible after the Last Prophet of God..
There are those who claim to have seen it, and who can say they're wrong? Most of them live with so much inner peace that it's almost hard not to believe them.
Those, who claim to have seen souls are probably confusing them with jinns..
