Functional Spirituality

My baby doesn’t have a soul


Listen Later

Inspired by Ava’s friends who have asked questions about her baby’s ‘soul’. In this episode Ava elaborates further on why she does not believe that anyone has a soul.

With a degree in philosophy and a profound knowledge of non-duality, she explains that what we are in essence is very different to the common concept of the soul.
