Well, fortunately I wasn't worried abut myself as I was about those who I asked my question. ))) As for me, I have my clear understanding of it that fits the representative’s of listed countries view.
It's interesting cuz in many languages words "soul" and "spirit" mean exactly the same. So "our soul is our ... spiritual counterpart" sounds like "our spirit is our spiritual counterpart..." - it's like it just can't be that.
It's interesting how it doesn't have a specific place according to science. When you are asked "where your forehead is located: is it like above or below "you"...what do you answer?
Soul is a spiritual word which means or refers to a thing which is within us but hu doesn't have any specific place according to science which is same as feelings
