Thought provoking question...at such an early hour...but I'll try!Let's see if I can wrap my "mind" around the question, or...do I mean my "brain'!
Spirit...that untangible force in us that leads us to truth and discernment in conducting our Spiritual life, a life force.
Soul....our being, the essense of what we are, and is believed to survive after death.
Conscience...that which tells us the difference between right or wrong, a judgement of ones actions morally
Sub-conscience,,,something deep with us, that acts out because of a gut feeling..mental activity carrried out without awareness.

Different faiths have different views…to me it’s:

A spirit is a living entity (sometimes called ghosts if seen) that resides in and with the body. The body cannot survive without the spirit, and the spirit needs the body to experience life (pain, pleaser, happy, sad, fun boredom, etc). In some languages, the spirit is translated to the mind. In other words, the spirit thinks and controls the body almost like a suit. The spirit will never die.

The Soul is a lot of times synonymous with Spirit. However some believe that it is your physical body in particular. Others believe it is the union of the body and spirit. I do know that some regard the Soul as both, and to donate blood or organs is literally share part of your soul. I think it is the union of the two (spirit and body), but if a donation is made, it is made from the body alone. If God didn’t want us to share body parts then we wouldn’t be able to. Although the body may die, the soul essence of who you are still exists forever with the spirit. And, body and spirit re-unite in the resurrection to finally form a perfect soul.

The conscious is you awareness. What you know you are thinking and feeling. “Let your conscious be your guide”, is eluding to do what you know you feel best. The key here is you aware of what your environment, thoughts, and feelings are telling you.

The sub-conscious is behind the scenes picking up everything it can “just in case”. You are not aware of the sub-conscious, however it might help in by give you thoughts or feelings about certain things. Have you ever thought or felt something different (not necessarily bad) out of the blue with explanation as to why? That’s your sub-conscious being triggered due to something the environment. Other then that, there’s not much known about the sub-conscious, you could always try a search.

I will not venture in to classic definitions. I will put it in simple language. We use the word Spirit when we refer to a person who is no longer alive. Soul is essential for a man to live. Soul leaves a man on death. You may assemble mechanically all the parts of this body. The body will not spring in to action unless there is soul. We consider soul as a part of God Almighty that resides in us. Consciousness is the waking state when I am able to perceive things and get inputs through the sensory organs. Sub-conscious pertains to a sleeping state when you are not conscious. However certain activity goes on in the brain which you recollect on waking up.

I suggest that no person living at this time has an answer to your question!

I have been looking at this question for years and have been unable to make logical working divisions or logical working combinations among hundreds of claims.

Now each man's system will hang together pretty good, to some extent. When you try to combine them, semantics becomes a central problem. You have religious language, psychological language, street language, etc.

If there were good working definitions for the words you give, then the ability to differentiate would be easy.

I recommend that you make the effort to differentiate spiritual and psychological verbiage, even if the task is impossible. It will give you some amazing insights into yourself and the situational soup of the human mental morass.

I think your question is great; if not overly complex for this venue. It is a great concept area. Chow.

Not everyone necessarily believes in a spirit. I was taught in a Christian church that you only gain one upon becoming a Christian; how other religions address this, I'm not sure.

Your soul is all of who you are, and encompasses the conscious (everything you are aware of) and the subconscious, which is thing you know or are thinking that you are *not* aware of.

Jung postulated the unconscious, which is close to the subconscious, but also includes things such as racial memory, the real cause of "coincidence", and so on.

Our ' soul' is us, living, beathing. It is not something spiritual that departs our body at death. The original word in Hebrew from the Bible , translated 'soul', is NEPHESH which means ' that which breathes'.
(Ecclesiastes 9:5-6) For the living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all, neither do they anymore have wages, because the remembrance of them has been forgotten. 6 Also, their love and their hate and their jealousy have already perished, and they have no portion anymore to time indefinite in anything that has to be done under the sun.

i've got faith they're very appropriate. After concentration has been replaced to a pair new experience. The previous experience immediately strikes into the sub-wakeful techniques. the risky concern approximately it truly is if it develop right into a bad experience, it might have some undesirable outcomes on the guy in his recent and futher. no longer something gets erased from the wakeful techniques, it in basic terms slips into the colour of the sub-wakeful.
