And this captivity is in the limited physical body, which man calls his individuality or personality; while the nature of the soul is peace and joy and freedom. In this captivity it lacks these things. That is why the soul begins to-feel it, wants this or that: paradise, duty, a beloved, wealth. Reason may suggest, "This is it", and the soul goes after it, but having acquired it, it begins to feel, "No, this is not the thing that I wanted."
