@Arianne Tong I think there is room for those kinds of ideas in existentialism. But the soul doesn't determine our fate, necessarily – or it does, but it's not pre-determined (we are our soul, and we determine our own fate). There's a lot of talk about souls, collective memory, oneness and stuff like that in Waking Life.

This is really interesting stuff. I’m learning it in my Human Nature class at the moment. It is empowering I suppose – that is, the bit about ‘we are what we make of ourselves’. But I’m not so excited about the idea that we don’t have an essence… or soul…whatever…(at least I think this is what this theory stipulates.. correct me if I’m wrong). Perhaps there is a pragmatic way to regard this theory that can include the possibility for human essence.
