'Soul' is a universal idea, weaving through different faiths, philosophies, and ideologies. It's a concept present in religion and philosophy, symbolizing the intangible part of a person that gives them their unique character and humanness. Whether viewed as the mind, the self, or a connection to the divine, the soul is a concept that transcends the boundaries of time and culture.

Ancient cultures like the Egyptians and Chinese believed in a dual soul. (1) In Ancient Greece, the soul's nature varied across different periods and philosophies. Epicureans thought it was composed of atoms like the body. Platonists saw it as immaterial yet connected to change. Aristotle's view was less clear, but he linked it closely to the body. (2) In Christian theology, St. Augustine compared the soul to a ‘rider’ of the body, emphasizing the division between material and immaterial. The soul represented the true self, but they were inseparable. During the Middle Ages, St. Thomas Aquinas returned to the Greek idea of the soul as a driving force, distinct but needing the body for individuality. (3)
