Spirit - Mind - Body
Another way to put it is Being, Soul, and Flesh. As these are often a conundrum, clarity here may be helpful. My teachers and I consider Spirit or Being as the infinite part of us that is always pure and perfect. Pure energy might be an image you can relate to, never defiled, dirty, or "wrong." Mind or Soul is the human part where personality and character dwell. This can be pure and perfect too when we think and do the "right" things in constant flow with our Higher Power. Unfortunately, we can go astray here as well when we become aligned with selfish and negative thoughts and behaviors. Body or flesh are really just the instrument or vehicle of the mind, constantly manifesting what we think and believe. The saving grace is we can change our minds, and thus change our lives and destiny. It may seem like turning the Titanic around, but it can be done, by degrees. The key is staying in touch with the Spirit, Holy Spirit if you will, as Holy just means whole, or healthy, as well as devine. Even devine means " of the vine," the vine of basic goodness, abundance, and blessing that is ours when we align ourselves with it Spirit, mind and body.
