is the soul immortal?, page-13

For something to be immoral, must it not have be permanent or unchanging? Therefore, we can ask ourselves, in the true spirit of inquiry, what part of us & our experience is permanent & unchanging?

The physical body & it's respective parts & organs?

The feelings of pleasure & pain that are felt?

The moods, desires, emotions, thoughts, ideas & opinions the mind creates?

The various capacities of mind, such as efficiency, quality & speed of memory, thought, problem solving & intellectual knowledge retention. Are these mental capacities unchanging?

Or sense conscious. Does the capacity for & clarity of seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, touching sensation & awareness of one's own mind remain unchanging?

Or the energy of life? Is our energeticness unchanging?

If there is brain injury, brain removal or brain/neurological disease, is there a part of life that remains unchanging & thus immortal?

What is this 'soul' let alone a 'person'?

Are not 'persons' merely the products of genetics & social/environmental conditioning?
