30. The Effect on the Soul
The soul as we know is a constantly oscillating energy field. The oscillation can be because of the body expending more energy for work or absorbing the nutrients and energy from food, or any other process. The energy field is constantly balanced to a normal level by regular intake and expenditure of food. However, large …
29. Human Thoughts and Emotions
A man travelling in a car along a two-lane road finds himself behind a heavy truck. He tries overtaking the truck through the side lane and halfway through. He sees a vehicle speeding towards him from the opposite direction. His immediate instinct is to slow down, and he does so to prevent an accident. This …
28. The Windows of Time
Let’s take the view of 3 different animals, an ant and a dog (for their subconscious) and a human being (for its mind). An ant with 3 senses develops a subconscious that observes only a few seconds of the present time in a continuous stream of events. In other words, the present time experienced by …
27. Subconscious and Conscious/ Emotions
When an animal gets hungry, it finds food; predators hunt, while a prey scrounges for food. When their need is fulfilled, that is, after their meal, the instincts go away and don’t show up until they get hungry again. But for the sixth sense, the question of future possibilities of the same need arises (!), …
26. The Mind
The mind is described as ‘an extension of the soul’ by the Yogis and Siddhas. However, it shouldn’t be mixed with the functions of the brain. The brain is a tangible physical entity, but the mind is an intangible construct. Though the mind has its base in the physical body and more specifically, the brain, …
25. The Sixth Sense
Evolution, as we have seen, starts with a need, a stimulus, and produces a response with an effect. The effect can be a change in the physical structure of an organism or its mental capacities or both. In almost all the cases, the effects of evolution are harmless to both the organism and its environment, …
24. The 5 Senses
The sensory evolution process had a beginning in some simple living beings, with the sense of touch. The ‘touch’ sense in its starting days shouldn’t be confused with our common understanding of touch, where we feel the contact of any foreign body with our own. The sense of touch, in its primitive stages, was actually …
23. Senses and Consciousness – The Beginning
Presently, we know the existence of 6 major senses in living beings. The senses of touch, sight, smell, taste, hearing and reason, and we proudly claim we are the sole possessors of all of them! Evolution helped living organisms to develop different body parts for performing various functions (as physiological diversification). All body parts are, …
22. The Unified Soul/ Conscious Energy?
The Unified Soul The single cell’s condition, however, doesn’t apply to multicellular life forms whose cells have merged to form a unified soul. The multicellular life forms have large numbers of eukaryotic cells bound with each another. Each set of cells (tissues) perform a specific function for the organism’s survival. The different tissues, each performing …
21. Astral Bodies, Auras & the Balance/ Breakup of the Soul
Astral Bodies, Auras & the Balance A unique term that is used to describe the energy field is the astral body. Although there’s a convention among many philosophers about the soul being subtly different from the astral body, when viewed from a science angle the energy field is what is understood by many as the …

20. Life and Soul
In spiritual philosophy, It is said the evolution of life on Earth was the result of the same causative property of energy which first created matter. The atoms of each element have different properties depending on their mass, or the amount of finite energy taken to create them. For example, a relatively small amount of …
19. Atoms and Elements
Before the formation of our universe, the reality filled with infinite energy, was devoid of matter, it was opaque and it existed forever! At some point in time, the energy started to exert a force upon itself and started to get compressed. Contradicting our popular notion that gravity came after mass, the gravitation force is …
