I posted this comment to an article on Before It's News about old souls. Nothing the article said concerning what constitutes an old soul do I agree with, so I've not put a link to it. However as people are interested in 'old souls' here are my brief comments, and please add yours:
Actually there is no such thing as what we attribute to an ‘old soul’. According to the The Urantia Book, it’s whether or not ones soul has been created to receive and so interact with a more or less advanced Indwelling Spirit - thought adjuster.
There is no reincarnation, so that has no bearing on a soul being ‘old’ or not. Reincarnation is an erroneous belief designed to keep one looked into ones mind and feeling-denial state.
To uncover the truth of yourself - the truth of your soul, one needs to look to ones feelings for they are the way, not as so many people believe is the mind.
If you deny yourself one feeling, if for example you stop yourself feeling your bad feelings in any way, instead of fully acknowledging them, fully accepting them, and then expressing them whilst longing for and wanting to uncover the truth about yourself they will show you, then your mind is standing in the way of your true soul progression and evolution of truth by stopping such feelings from being freely expressed.
We’ve all learnt to control and condition our feelings to some degree during our early childhood, making us reliant on our minds, all of which deadens the soul losing ones true connection with it as one stops oneself from feeling all ones feelings.
All religions and New Age philosophy is mind based - based on beliefs and how one should live, so is feeling controlling, so will limit ones growth of truth, ones soul growth.
To truly set yourself free, it’s to your feelings you will need to look, your Feelings are the Gateway to your soul.
