the soul and the super soul is there a difference between the two yes actually see the spiritual level of reality is something which we can’t directly perceive so those who are at the so many people who are in the spiritual path they when they intuit that there is something beyond this world, this world is temporary and there is something beyond that, so the primary perception of the spiritual level is that there is some reality beyond that but as we move forward then we start perceiving ok in that reality also there can be just like say if we are walking on a road in dark the darkness blinds us but sometimes if say suddenly a vehicle comes a big truck comes with a high glare on then even the light blinds us so although the light illuminates normally meant to illuminate but sometimes the light can also blind so there can be could say darkness that blinds and there can be brightness also that blinds so the brightness does give light but it doesn’t help us to see clearly but once our eyes get adapted to that light ok then you can say ok it’s not just brightness, ok there is a truck coming over here, there are trees over here, there is a road over here, that variegatedness we start seeing, so for most of us for most people on the spiritual path when they start from the material level of reality which is like darkness and they come to the spiritual level the first perception is that they are blinded by the light they understand there is a big light but they perceive it all as one but as one gets habituated to the spiritual reality, then one starts perceiving more clearly and one understands that there is differentiation over there so there is this, you are a soul I am a soul, we are all individual souls and beyond us there is a super soul so in the Isha Upanishad there is a verse which says, my dear lord please remove the white curtain around you hiranyamayena patrena sathya saapihitam mukham tattvam pooshanapavaronu sathya dharamaya dhrishtaye so at that time please remove this so that there is a black darkness you could say, darkness but there is also brightness, so please remove this brightness so that I can discern you clearly Hare Krishna
