Have you ever thought that we all may be shapeshifters or some may not have the ability but look at the definition “a person or being that can physically transform one's form through an inherently magical ability at will”. Let’s not pay attention to “magical” but we can change into different forms due to our emotions, we can make different faces, lose/ gain weight to changes how we look etc.. we can lie with a stone cold face, we can smile even though we may not feel the sensation. We are able to control others by the way we communicate and use our “body language”. This is an unfinished thought but something different to think about for sure. This also has nothing to do with the soul or spirit, but the body.

Definitely an interesting thought. I think socially we can be shape shifters, but if you can live authentically I don't think the need to do so exists quite so much. I think what made Buddhism and Taoism accessible for me was the fact I was weened on punk rock. I have never hesitated to cut against the grain. I'm just me and usually pretty well received. Except with superegos. They don't like me because I prod at the balloon looking to deflate it.
