The question of the existence of the soul has always caused a lot of controversy. Scientists from all over the world conducted a number of studies, during which they managed to prove the presence of some matter and even measure its weight.
Is there a soul?
Experiments to find evidence for the existence of the soul have varied. In St. Petersburg, scientists filmed the aura of dying people with the help of special devices and came to the conclusion that after death the energy shell continues to exist, and does not go out with the life of the body.
All religions confidently speak about the existence of the soul. Although no one has seen or touched her, high-precision instruments pick up some specific signals that indicate the presence of a certain energetic entity that continues its life after physical death.
Another piece of evidence was an experiment with water, which proved that the structure of water changes if you leave it next to a person for a while. As you know, water tends to store a significant amount of information by changing its structure. This proved that a person has unique energetic features comparable to the fingerprints of the physical body.
Heraclitus in his theories said that the human soul is matter like fire and air. Today scientists have come to the conclusion that the soul contains atoms, the density of which is more than 176 times less than the density of air. Moreover, the soul, as it were, envelops a person and does not have an exact location in the physical body.
Soul weight
Not so long ago, an international team of experts conducted a number of studies, which were carried out by Duncan McDougall back in 1906. The essence of the experiments was as follows: dying patients were weighed a few minutes before death and at the time of death. At the time of death, the patient's weight decreased sharply, and all by the same figure - 21 grams. Skeptics tried to refute the results of this study, explaining the sharp decrease in weight by oxidative processes occurring in the body of a dying person. Studies carried out by modern scientists using the latest devices have confirmed the results of McDougall's experiments - after death, a person's weight decreases by exactly 21 grams.
Thus, the presence of a soul in a person is indirectly confirmed by scientific methods. However, the research data generated more questions than answers. However, sincere believers never question the existence of the soul, while skeptics are desperate for reliable facts and new evidence.
