What is soul?

according to www.dictionary.com

soul ( P ) Pronunciation Key (sl)
n.
1) The animating and vital principle in humans, credited with the faculties of thought, action, and emotion and often conceived as an immaterial entity.
2) The spiritual nature of humans, regarded as immortal, separable from the body at death, and susceptible to happiness or misery in a future state.
3) The disembodied spirit of a dead human.
4) A human: “the homes of some nine hundred souls” (Garrison Keillor).
5) The central or integral part; the vital core: “It saddens me that this network... may lose its soul, which is after all the quest for news” (Marvin Kalb).
6) A person considered as the perfect embodiment of an intangible quality; a personification: I am the very soul of discretion.
7) A person's emotional or moral nature: “An actor is... often a soul which wishes to reveal itself to the world but dare not” (Alec Guinness).
8) A sense of ethnic pride among Black people and especially African Americans, expressed in areas such as language, social customs, religion, and music.
9) A strong, deeply felt emotion conveyed by a speaker, a performer, or an artist.
10) Soul music.

the first 3 points make more sense.
soul, to me, is the energy that keeps a being alive. who is this "being"??? it can be an human, an animal, a plant or even some unexplained ....

but remember that the soul is 'separable from the body at death', where does it go? up in heaven, down in hell or just everywhere. we could be living in the same plane or dimension with 'them' now.

I believe in re-birth. what 'bout U?

Cleanse or heal your soul during your present life and the coming ones to reap good karma or deeds.

who knows, you might enjoy the benefits at a later phase of your present life.
