There is only one

Plotinus suggests that when the soul becomes embodied, which is the common but inaccurate expression, there is actually no corning down from the Realm of Soul, no contracting within a particular nervous system, because the soul is not spatial. Plotinus explains that our souls live, now as always, on higher, or more primal, planes of Being. These higher places contain no spatial multiplicity, only the perfectly interpenetrating, spaceless multiplicity of spiritual Archetypes, which provide unique principles for each soul. The manifestation of souls on the physical plane may be pictured in this way. Our Archetype, perhaps fertilized by other Archetypes, gives birth to a particular child, or soul-ray, which becomes identified as our present body-mind. The Archetype, as Mother, becomes deeply involved with Her child, perhaps one of many in various galaxies. But when the child evolves and begins to realize the full extent of its nature as the One, the Mother, or Archetype, returns to Her universal Life, in which the particular soul now fully participates. The Enlightened human being thus develops an awareness on the level of his or her Archetype, which is sometimes regarded as a Divine Form. Many humans are still young children, almost entirely unaware of levels of Being more primal than their particular body-mind. As our soul contemplates its Archetype, so that Archetype in turn contemplates the One, which is its Source. Plotinus always returns to the One as the intrinsic nature of the entire procession of Being. The body-mind is in the soul, the soul is in the Archetype, the Archetype is in the One, but the One is not situated in a more comprehensive reality. Explains Plotinus: The One is in nothing at all, and therefore in this sense "nowhere." . . . It is therefore not far from anything, although not in anything. The One is situated nowhere, and for this reason cannot be separated from us by the slightest physical or psychic space. It is utterly close and accessible. The One, although not characterized by substance or by existence, expresses boundless power, not physical or psychic power but the metaphysical fruitfulness of ever-expanding implications or horizons.
