Soul making is about drawing out a certain experience of the person and transform this into an image either

“SOUL MAKING”REFERS TO THE PHILOSOPHICAL CONCEPT THAT EXPLORES THE DEVELOPMENT AND GROWTH OF AN
INDIVIDUAL'S INNER ESSENCE OR "SOUL.” IT INVOLVES THE INTERPLAY OF THREE KEY ELEMENTS: SOUL, SOUND, AND
STRUCTURE.
SOUL
- The soul represents the core essence of an individual, encompassing their emotions, consciousness, and
unique identity. It is often associated with spirituality and personal growth. Emotional or intellectual energy
intensity, especially as revealed in a work of art or an artistic performance.
SOUND
- Sound refers to the various influences and experiences that shape and mold the soul. These can include
external factors such as music, art, literature, and meaningful human connections. Sound acts as a catalyst
for self-reflection, inspiration, and the exploration of one's inner depths.
STRUCTURE
- Structure relates to the framework or organization that provides stability and direction to the soul's growth.
This can involve personal values, moral principles, belief systems, and life goals. Structure helps individuals
navigate challenges, make choices, and develop a coherent sense of self.
Together, the interplay of soul, sound, and structure contributes to the process of soul making. It involves introspection
self-discovery, and the pursuit of personal authenticity. By engaging with meaningful experiences, connecting with
others, and establishing a solid foundation, individuals can nurture and cultivate their souls, fostering personal growth
and a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them.
