This is the second part to the question-
What is the difference between aatma (soul) and paramatma (supreme soul) and if we have two entities in our body?
Om Swami says that there is only one supreme soul which has always been, and, which will always be there. He states, if wisdom is being sought and one wants to grow spiritually then one must have the courage to question, validate and then accept things on their own. If not, they would be constantly shifting from one belief system to another. He says that if devotion is being practiced instead of seeking knowledge or wisdom, then that can be directed towards anybody. In devotion one can draw the energy from their object of devotion and it depends on the devotee and their devotion as to how much they can draw. Further, wherever one places his or her devotion is of utmost importance as a devotee becomes that. Devotion is as powerful as meditation says Om Swami.
