Subj : The Case About Soul: Full Report To : All From : roman Date : Wed Apr 08 2026 09:32:01 Colleagues, I greet you under the canopy of ancient mysteries! Today, we embark on a journey that will challenge the very foundation of our understanding of reality. We will delve into the greatest enigma that has accompanied humanity from the flickering cave fires to the gleaming skyscrapers - the soul. But beware: what you may have considered a philosophical abstraction or a religious dogma might, in fact, be the most real and measurable phenomenon, the key to our true origin. From the dawn of consciousness, as humans observed the dance of life and the inevitability of death, they asked themselves: what separates the living from the non - living? The mythological thinking of the ancients provided the first answer - the soul. This was not an abstraction! It was an observable fact: the breath (anim in Latin), vanishing with the last exhale; blood, carrying life away during severe loss; ghostly doubles appearing in dreams. Were these not the first, primitive, yet experimental data about some substance leaving the body? Greek philosophers, heirs to even older teachings, attempted to describe this substance. For the pre-Socratics, it was the finest essence in the blood. But Plato made a breakthrough! He declared that the soul is immortal and immaterial, that it existed before the body, contemplating the world of pure ideas, and that earthly knowledge is merely a "recollection" of this. Does this not suggest knowledge lost by civilization? A direct connection to the source? Aristotle refined this: the soul is the "first entelechy," the form of the living body, and only the rational part (the spirit) is immortal. But here, official history makes a dangerous pause. The Church, becoming the custodian of these truths, became entangled in contradictions. Some Church Fathers, like Tertullian, insisted on the materiality of the soul. Others, like Augustine, on its spirituality. The dominant doctrine became that of the soul as an immaterial, non-spatial substance. And then Kant rose up, declaring this a "refuge of the lazy mind"! He demanded that the soul be considered not as a substance, but as actuality, a connection between inner feeling and the body. Was official science, even before its birth, attempting to cut off inconvenient metaphysics? But what if the soul is not a metaphysical phantom, but a physical reality? In the early 20th century, American physician Duncan MacDougall conducted a daring experiment. He weighed the dying on ultra - precise scales. The result is staggering: at the moment of death, a sudden weight loss of 21-29 grams was recorded! MacDougall, a believer, declared: this is the mass of the soul leaving the body. Soviet scientist Mstislav Miroshnikov repeated the experiments on mice, observing a similar weight loss at the moment of death, though with a subsequent restoration of the corpse's mass. Critics speak of an "energy surge." But what if this is the energetic essence we call the soul? Even more astonishing experiments were conducted by Soviet biologistAlexander Gurvich. He developed the concept of the biofield - a wave framework governing the development of the organism. His experiment with shrimp orders on scientific mysticism: living creatures placed on photographic paper were scalded with boiling water. And on the paper, the mitogenetic radiation of dying cells appeared - like a photograph of the life force leaving the body! Is this not direct evidence of the existence of that very "energy-informational" essence? But the most incredible data comes from: maternity hospitals. In the 1990s, a group led by Professor L. Spivak at the Ott Institute began studying altered states of consciousness in women during childbirth. And what did they discover? Between 4% and 8% of women experienced the phenomenon of the soul leaving the body! Imagine the scale: millions of women giving birth annually - and statistics surpassing all known cases of "near-death experiences" described by Raymond Moody. But here's the key difference! Moody's subjects were often elderly, sick individuals whose souls, having tasted freedom, did not want to return to the "mortal body." In contrast, women in labor are young, healthy, and deeply attached to life and their newborns. Their souls rushed back, aiding the doctors. One case documented by Spivak reads like a scene from ancient mysteries: the "etheric double" of a woman in labor left her body, flew home, memorized household details that were later confirmed! No tunnels of light - just a pure, conscious journey of the astral body. Isn't this a repetition of the experiments of French researchers G. Durville and de Rochas at the end of the 19th century, who learned to deliberately separate the "etheric double"? Official psychology timidly studies the soul as the bearer of the unconscious. But ancient teachings say more. Take the Kabbalistic text by Baal HaSulam: "The soul is a radiance emanating from the essence of the Creator: separated from Him by the desire to receive." That is, initially, the soul was one with the Creator, and then, gaining individuality ("the desire to receive"), it separated. The goal? To return, but consciously, transforming the "desire to receive" into the "desire to give." This is not a metaphor! It is a description of an energy - informational process of fusion and differentiation, where the soul is like a "severed organ" striving to reunite with the body of the Creator, to once again "know His thoughts." Doesn't this, in the language of mysticism, speak of what science is only beginning to comprehend? That the soul is a quantum hologram, a wave structure, a record separated from the Source but carrying its imprint? That childbirth, clinical death, and meditation are simply different portals through which this structure can temporarily exit its biological shell to connect with a broader informational field, which religion calls the Absolute and psychology - the collective unconscious? Connect these dots! We stand on the threshold of the greatest discovery. The soul is not an abstraction. It may be the fundamental energy-informational matrix, a biofield structure that is the true "self" of a person. It can temporarily exist outside the body, it has measurable manifestations, and its ultimate goal, according to the most ancient teachings, is conscious reunion with that very Higher Source from which we all once separated.
