The individual soul and Supersoul are compared to two birds which reside in the same tree. One of them (jiva-atma) is eating the fruits of the tree, while the other (param-atma) is just witnessing the activities of his friend. The witness is the Lord, and the fruit-eater is the living entity. The fruit-eater (living entity) which is overcome by 1 Chaitanya means consciousness, while soul is an english word which could mean anything depending on the context. Sometimes soul is used to refer to subtle body. Sometimes soul denotes the jiva. Sometimes Soul refers to the Highest Brahman.
