The Soul

Life is a beautiful and mysterious concept. Life is the period during which something functions. I used to believe that humans are nothing more than stardust and are just bags of chemicals which came to be because of random chances . There are so many forms of life that we know of some live on land, some in the sea, some we cant even see. Now in a new epiphany and after lots of self contemplation what I believe is common to all of them is the "soul". The soul is what makes all life possible and this fact has been known since the early intelligent species first studied life. The soul is half of the mysteries of life, it is in our bodies and is presumed to be God's way of telling us that he exists. No one can deny the fact that a soul exists and if you ask for proof, read on.

Lets do an experiment, a gruesome one. Let's take a perfectly healthy man and lets make that mass of beating tissue and muscle responsible for the blood flowing in him stop. Now the man is called dead only because he has no actions of his own. Now wait for an hour or so and try whatever you can think of to make that lump of mass beat again. Attach motors in his body to make the blood pump again. Do you think he would walk again, think again ? Why not ? I mean this body is perfectly healthy, his organs are intact in the right place and not that in an hour's time some part  of him would have decomposed . So if everything is so normal and 100% intact according to science, why doesn’t the man return to his old state ? This is because of the weird concept of soul. It is like an energy like all the other energies classified by science. Gravity is the energy of matter, heat is the energy of reactions, nuclear energy is responsible for holding atoms together and soul is the energy of life. They cannot exist individually. But for some reason, unknown, the soul cannot be formed like lighting up of candle to get heat. That is why we believe in a higher power who has the ability to control this energy. Once the perfectly healthy man's heart stopped, it wont produce life anymore as the soul, this is hard for me to also get, has emptied the body. Where it goes, what happens to the energy, I don’t know. But I do know the man is missing the key to being alive.

Frankenstein is one of the most popular fictions of man trying to create life. In that story a genius professor trying to create life took a more than a dozen different organs from a dozen of different dead bodies and he compiled them into a single body, exactly how a human is constructed.  Not to his surprise , the body did not move or show any sign of being alive. Then the professor provided the body with energy, not the soul kind of energy as that wasn’t available, but with mind boggling amounts of electricity. The body showed life and when the professor tried to understand his creation he learnt that such a thing could only be termed as a monster, an abomination because it could not feel what normal life and emotions felt like. This is because Frankenstein didn’t have right sort of energy in him. This energy is a natural gift and what is considered the most purest above all other types of energy.
The concept of this paranormal energy doesn’t just apply to humans it apply to every living thing, from tress, plants, animals even bacteria. We use wood everywhere in our daily life, why doesn’t our table start growing roots in our living room and eventually turn into a tree ? The tree has a soul, an energy responsible for making it grow and flourish.

Everyone should be treated equally because everyone irrespective of cast, gender, sexual preferences and color has been blessed by a high authority and been given an equal chance to thrive. I have no clue as to what happens on death, about the existence of heaven or hell but I do believe energy is never created or destroyed.
