People have a misunderstanding that there should be a soul in my body. The body is not the real me, and the soul is the real me.
But if you think about it carefully, if your body cannot exist alone and needs to be controlled by the soul, then who will control the soul? A soul must live in the body, but what lives in the soul? Linked together, never ending.
To put it more accurately: behind the physical body there is an attachment, behind the attachment there is a discriminating mind, and behind the discriminating mind there is a delusion.
What most people call soul is that they believe that there is still something that exists after death, and they call it soul. Because people die but the soul does not die, they think that the soul is immortal.
In fact, this Western soul is also called Yuanshen in China, and it is also called consciousness, which is attachment, discrimination and delusion.
After death, the physical body perishes and attachment, discrimination, and delusions remain.
But I can tell you: these can all be destroyed, but they will not disappear with death. They need to be destroyed in other ways. And not one of them is an eternal soul.
To summarize: What is your definition of soul? If you think that you are the eternal self, then you have no soul; if you think that there is something that exists after death, then you have a soul.
