Over-Soul

The Over-Soul is a philosophical concept introduced by Ralph Waldo Emerson, representing a universal spirit that connects all living beings. It is an all-encompassing divine presence or collective consciousness that transcends individual existence. Through the Over-Soul, people can experience a sense of unity, intuition, and moral insight, recognizing that they are part of a greater whole. It emphasizes that personal growth and understanding are rooted in connection to this higher, universal spirit, encouraging individuals to align themselves with its wisdom and goodness.
