In the modern world, the term "soul" is used both as a metaphor and in the form of a synonym for the "inner world of the individual ", "psyche". It is the soul that is the main concept that always appears in the history of psychology.
Psychology of the human soul
The human soul is an entity through which free will is born. Even Heraclitus claimed that she occupies a special place in the world order, because she moves the beginning of everything in this world.
If we talk about the concept of "soul" in the context of psychology, then, to begin with, we should consider two stages of the evolution of the psyche:
- The first began with the birth of the primary forms of the psyche . The final period of this stage is the emergence of a new mental organization of man, which marks a kind of biological evolution.
- The second stage is characterized as a cultural revolution, as a result, a person acquires inner peace, realizes his own "I". The onset of this stage is due to the complication of the interactions of the individual with the surrounding world. As a result of the second period of the emergence of the human psyche, each person begins his existence in a culture environment. This gives rise to the manifestation of its internal characteristics. They are expressed by internal stimuli motivating the performance of a certain action. As a result, this indicates the person has free will, that is, he has the right to choose. The source of free will is the soul.
So, psychology calls psychology a kind of mental education, which has the ability to self-organize and create within itself a complete system of various interactions from components that are opposite in nature.
The psychology of both the female and the male soul is the reality of the life of each individual. It is the soul that ensures man's interaction with the world around him.
