there is not just one universal soul but also the individual soul that dwells inside of each body

[Tamohara dasa ADMIN.]

• "avinasi tu tad viddhiyena sarvam idam tatam vinasam avyayasyasya kascit kartum arhati In this passage, Sri Krsna introduces Arjuna to the idea of an indestructible and imperishable soul which pervades the body.

The soul is spread all over the body and is what animates that material body. In essence, the soul is consciousness. It is obvious that this consciousness is spread throughout the body since one feels sensation throughout the body. If one drops something on their foot, then it will be felt. If one slices their finger, it will be felt. If the rays of sunshine hit one’s face, it will be felt. However, if someone next to you were to do any of these things, you would not feel it. This demonstrates that there is not just one universal soul but also the individual soul that dwells inside of each body."
