Most believe "soul" to essentially be one's spirit -that which they are minus their physical body.

Biblically, the word translated soul includes both body and spirit -and is also used to describe animals -the spirit being that which allows for understanding, thinking, etc. to varying degrees.

Some believe in an everlasting/eternal/immortal soul that has always existed -and will always exist -as such -but biblical scripture states that both body and spirit can be destroyed in Gehenna (lake of fire).

One's spirit can be made immortal, though -as can their body (as well as being much improved). As a body is an interface between the spirit and environment, the interface can be designed to interact differently -on a different level -so with that new body we can become a spirit -while also technically having a spirit -which would be in a "spirit" body.

"Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit."

"Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself"

Hebrews 4: 12 For the word of God is alive(N) and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit,

Well as defined in Wikipedia,



Soul or psyche (Ancient Greek: ψυχή psykhḗ, of ψύχειν psýkhein, "to breathe") comprises the mental abilities of a living being: reason, character, feeling, consciousness, memory, perception, thinking, etc. Depending on the philosophical system, a soul can either be mortal or immortal.

The gravity of your soul is the some total of everything you can not forgive yourself for + everything you can not forgive others for.

reason, character, feeling, consciousness, memory, perception, thinking

All which exist in the brain.
The weight of a soul is the weight of your brain.
An adult brain weighs about 3 pounds.

Is it in the human nervous system?

Is it in the 0.085 Watts of average electric power in the brain?

Is it in the sequence of patterns of electrical signals corresponding to sensory reality and self,

that cannot be conceived in any other place than the living being,

where imaginary reality meets reality?

Yes. smile2

Hi LS,
My health is worse than ever but the doc put me on some stronger and different meds.
GF and I are still having fun being in each other's company (over 2 years now).
Hope all is well in your life.

Whether it be body, mind or soul, it all exists in the same Universe. No matter what others might try to tell you the soul exists because we exist and it is part of us and we are all part of the same Universe.

I suppose it could be likened to software/code -which resides as a pattern/system by arrangement of some medium -within some sort of processor -then it interfaces through hardware.
Technically, such code -when being processed -even within computers -does not actually exist of itself, but as arrangements of something else. .....A sort of emergent pattern, but one which is capable -by its design -of such things as intent and creativity (the ability to alter that which would otherwise naturally occur -to direct the dynamic flow of reality by conscious decision)

That all definitely seems too simplistic for something as complex and amazing as one's spirit, but complexity is by arrangement of multiple simplicities.
We may also be reluctant to believe that a "soul" or spirit is something which can be completely understood, but if anything exists in any way, it may potentially be completely understood.

Some see the "magic" as being in the depths of "unknowability" and mystery -and that is true in the beginning. The mysterious and unknown is awe-inspiring, and is also wonderful and true that we may continually create things which are new to others at our present level.
However, complete understanding and mastery of our selves and the basis of all reality -removing the mystery of that which already exists -paves the way for extreme power to create from and interface with reality... to infinitely create more awe and wonder.

What is the weight of a human soul?



It doesn't really have weight so to say because it is not matter, it's more like electrical energy which can pass from one medium to another

Soul is the word a religious woman/man use to call their astral body after leaving their anatomical vessel
Behind on this Earth.
Consciousness is all you need to go on after death.

I sold my soul to the debbil,
for a pack of Winstons and a
pair of Dingo boots.
