    The soul

The human body…a master peace of nature supreme engineering, shaped by evolution over millions of years, powered by the eternal spiritual soul, now earned the right to be called the perfect machine!! Well…the perfect machine…it doesn’t seem right… this means that our emotions and soul are material..?! This is not what religion says! Now hold on a second…yes our body is the perfect machine and yes it has a connection with religion and god. So how is that?? I’ve being looking for an answer for a long time… wondering that how is it possible that we are alive knowing that we are made of atoms??! How science does explain the soul?? Why do we die? Why aren’t rocks alive for example?! What are thoughts and emotions and dreams….?! Is there a consciousness of matter? What is love?! I began searching and reading scientific and religious theories but I got no answers and absolutely no clues and I regretted the time I spent on nothing. But one day an Australian woman I met changed my perspective for life and how things work,  we had a long discussion of science and religion… for sure I was confused but after I began adoring god and became thankful for every single thing I had and I felt I must share it with everybody. The soul is a non-material, eternal spiritual entity present within any living being. The symptom of the presence of the soul within a body is consciousness. The soul continues to exist after the destruction of the body and it existed prior to the creation of the body. The material body develops changes and produces by-products [offspring] because of the presence of the soul within. The material body deteriorates in due cause of time and when it is no longer a suitable residence for the soul it is forced to leave the body. This we call death. Materials are physical substances that can be touched and manipulated such as metals, ceramics, semiconductors, exotic and strange materials(Materials scientists are discovering and creating) and BIOMATERIALS(every part of your body is a material!(Bone, muscles, fingernails, hair and skin). That’s great...Very useful information...But where is science meeting religion exactly?? The true power of god is found in this word: ENERGY! Every moving object depends on energy in its many forms (electric, mechanical, thermal...). Everything depends on energy: space, planets, weather systems, civilization electrical devices, mechanical devices…. Without energy there is no life, there is no ecosystems no plants, animals and absolutely no humans. Energy is three types of energy: gross material, subtle material and spiritual. The gross material energy consists of earth, water, fire, air and space. The subtle material energy consists of mind, intelligence and false-ego [defined as the identification of the body as the self]. The spiritual energy consists of the soul [the individual living entities] and the super soul. For humans our consciousness is what controls our lives, makes us respond to stimuli, keeps us in touch with others in social network sand makes us experience different kinds of emotions is caused by our souls inhabiting our bodies! The soul is very similar to electricity. The presence of the soul in any living entity is indicated by consciousness. Although we cannot actually see the soul, we can see its symptoms. We cannot “see” electricity but when we see an illuminated light-globe we can see the symptom of the presence of electricity. Similarly when we see consciousness we see the symptom of the soul. This is where sciences met religion: god created us from material and empowered us with energy in the form of a soul represented by the consciousness that controls every part of our lives. Take it from this perspective...The car is dead material but when we ride it we become its soul and it moves! After I had this conversation I read two books called the “alchemist” and “the secret” and I realized that despite the major exaggeration in these two books (for marketing purposes) there is something true and it’s that, really energy is the steering weal of our dead material bodies, I understood that Every thought is a real thing, a force and that Feeling is desire and desire is love, a major positive energy. No matter how long we discuss this object it never ends…all my questions above are now answered...Always remember to think positive because good thoughts are positive energy that enables your atoms to perform better and always be thankful for what you have because Gratitude brings your whole mind into harmony with the creative energies of the universe.
