Soul can be hurt.

The soul while growing is very sensitive. You can hurt a soul. You cannot destroy it, but you can hurt it. How does this hurt take place? What is the nature of that hurt? The nature may be one of serving to block the soul’s vision of its origin, namely God. The soul may be hampered in its growth thereby. You say, at times, you hurt someone’s feelings—you may be hurting someone’s soul. You may feel that, “Well hurting another’s feelings is not intentional, and it’s that person’s problem for being so sensitive,” but if you interpret hurting someone’s feelings as hurting someone’s soul, you would think more carefully about your relationships with others.
