Asatru Folk Assembly - Physicality and the Soul Complex #afa #asatru #ásatrú #asatrufolkassembly

00:00:00.480 One thing that I think is important, and I think this is a, so many of the concepts in our faith are represented on many, many levels.

00:00:15.060 There's a microcosm, macrocosm relationship between a lot of the things that we talk about.

00:00:23.160 The soul community is like that.

00:00:26.180 all of the parts of your soul rely upon each other. How each of them is developed or not developed

00:00:34.600 affects all of the others. It is the job of your leak to be as beautiful as possible

00:00:46.720 because its beauty is reflected on every other piece of that soul complex.

00:00:52.460 it is the first thing people it's the first thing that most people see when they see you

00:00:58.340 and it's your it's literally your first impression look good look your best the

00:01:07.600 other thing is to be physically capable we exist in this life in a physical corporeal world where

00:01:15.320 the only way you can do stuff is with your body does that sound ableist life is ableist

00:01:21.760 unfortunately, it just is. So you're doing the best with what you have, and making the most out

00:01:31.560 of it is essential to getting the best out of the rest of your soul complex, being physically

00:01:37.300 capable, being in good shape, minding your health and your longevity, and also looking good. Those

00:01:45.260 are all really important things. And, you know, I, this is a conversation that I had with

00:01:52.380 our founder, I was here, you go through Steven, some years ago, I think even before I was,

00:02:02.220 I was here, you go through, and we both very much believed that your physical condition is a

00:02:09.780 reflection of your soul condition, how healthy the rest of your soul is, is reflected in your

00:02:16.800 physical condition. And there's a lot of pieces that go into that. And I'm happy to answer

00:02:21.140 questions on that later. But I think it's important as we go into this, to have that part in mind.
