Will clones have souls?
QUESTION: Masters, with our DNA technology, we have successfully cloned “Dolly” the sheep. I understand we now have the technology to successfully clone humans. Other masters have said that “all is one” and that the soul creates the Earth body. If that is true, who resides in a cloned human body? You, Masters, have also said that every human being has a soul. But if a cloned human body is created by human technology, will a soul inhabit it? And if so is it the original soul from which the body came or a different soul who wants to experience life as a clone? ~Christina, USA
ANSWER: We are glad that someone has finally asked this question. There is much confusion about when a soul enters a body and how the process comes into being. In order for the body of homo sapiens to be viable and sentient, it must be inhabited by a soul. And we agree that all energy in the universe is the same, or one, everything having come from Source.
The soul does not “create” the physical body; it rather creates the environment it wishes to populate, using its freedom of choice. It will choose a location, parents, genetics that it wants to experience. A life as a clone would allow for some very interesting life lessons to occur, such as ambiguity, a sense of aloneness or not belonging, or being a possession, pet, or plaything of the DNA manipulators.
The soul, which is necessary to animate the physical body shell, would still have its memories of past lives it had lived, but there would be very little influence from the DNA patterning from the biological parents if it had been drastically altered to birth just the right clonal qualities.
The clone would be the sole possession of the soul who chose it as a vessel. Viability of the cellular bundle would be known before a soul would choose to inhabit that body, and it would be a conscious choice, knowing what difficulties would possibly be presented.
