It serves as grounding to many other discussions in the future and form validity to their arguments. What I request is simple: I want precise definitions on:How I'd define these things...
1- God
2- Soul
3- Heaven
4- Hell
Now, have at it.
1-Well, I'd define God as either the being of the Universe, or the creator of the Universe.
I'd define it as the heavens, the sun, the stars, the moon, the plant, the tree, the mountain.
I'd define God as a part of everything around us is a part of.
2-Soul. The soul is our consciousness. It is the self. The part of us which we recognize. I say such, because I know that there are parts of ourselves which we cannot recognize. The spiritual being, something which is bound to the fleshly husk, although our ancestors maintained that everything around us posessed a soul("tin" in old Turkish).
3-Heaven is the place where the good souls reside after death.
Our ancestors defined "Uchmagh" as such.
4-Hell is the place where the evil souls reside. Our ancestors defined "Kyzyl Tamu" as such.
