Who are you then if not your spirit/soul? Who is it that is in possession of the soul? And if it is something that can be possessed then what is it? And what are you?
Many have also said that it is not you that owns a soul, but god. Therefore, whatever you think your soul is, you cannot sell it for it does not belong to you to sell.
Draka dear, let me talk to you abeit about the soul. Per se, there is no such a thing as soul. Soul is the combination of the body with the breath of life, which some people call it spirit. Therefore, as long as we are alive we are living souls. At death though, the body goes to the dust. (Oh gosh, I hate to be talking like this with you)
and the breath of life goes, metaphorically, back to God, in the sense that it mingles back with the wind. At this separation the combination is undone and the soul is non-existent. Therefore, soul is not something that is possessed or exists as an entity apart from that living combination.
