All one ever sells is potentiality, that is there for each human. Some people call that soul, others an open destiny. Either way its a big loss.a reply to: Profusion
vhb:Someone or Something put a value on it and hoodwinked/convinced the Human it was a marketable commodity. Apparently it works (earthly gifts now) vs an uncertain eternal future (who cares until they get to destination). So much better to be rich and powerful NOW (in a world one thinks is actually REAL)! I would not sign the contract as there is bound to be invisible ink involved.
artistpoet: We used to use the term "Selling Out" ... You see it everywhere in every walk of life ...
If the soul exists then it is a gift ... the value of the soul is that which it earns/self worth.
artistpoet: Many people live their life's as if they were the body alone, yet the body betrays the owner, we all die
I choose to never put money first in the choices I make No amount of bribery will buy my time and energy if it means going against what I feel is the right thing.

What's your view of the "selling your soul" concept?
It is a METAPHOR for doing something that you know to be 'wrong'.
Simple as that.That is why 'literalists' remain ever clueless!

There is the other thing; that soul is not fully described and still in process of coming into being (to know itself).
