THE TRIUNE SOUL
Essential to the study of Vicia is an understanding of the spiritual structure of the human being. Vicia teaches us that we have a four-fold nature: a physical body and three souls. Each soul is individual and distinct, yet they are also one.

A rough comparison can be made to cell structure in biology. A cell is a single living thing, but may also be described as a cooperative structure formed of a nucleus, cytoplasm, and outer membrane. As with the different parts of a cell, each part of the triune soul possesses different characteristics and functions. Each part also possesses its own spirit body and characteristic consciousness.

The descriptions and exercises that follow are intended to lead to a deeper understanding of the three souls and begin the work of attaining harmony between them. The exercises are firmly rooted in the Andersons' teachings; however, the form in which they appear here is the original work of
Mandorla.

Huna also addresses the idea of the triune soul, and can be a worthwhile field of study for anyone. (See Huna for more information.)
