Most of us have read different opinions about death and what happens after death. But there is no positive evidence for the existence of immortal souls karma, reincarnation or any spiritual afterlife. I have nothing but respect for dissenting views based on religion, science or logic. But ultimately the truth and understanding will set us free. Not my truth or your truth, but the true truth …
While all religions admit the existence of the soul, they differ in what happens after death. For example, the Hindu concept of the soul revolves around transmigration and reincarnation. Muslims and Christians believe in Judgment Day when its fate is decided.
Therefore, the soul of Muslims and Christians is locked in the tomb of the person waiting for the Final Judgment when their fate is decided, while the soul of the Hindu who believes in transmigration is released immediately after the funeral to be ready to enter another body.
The question is:
Will God (one and the same God for all mankind) create two types of souls: one for Hindus and the other for Muslims and Christians?
Therefore, it is time for the scientific evaluation one way or another to form a logical opinion.
I will start with these lines from the Guru Granth scripture of the Sikh religion through the 5th Guru about death and its standard translation. Finally, I share my conclusions.
pavnai meh pavan samaa-ja-aa.
Wind combines with wind.
jotee meh jot ral jaa-ja-aa.
Light blends into light.
maatee maatee ho-ee ayk.
Dust becomes one with dust.
rovanhaaray kee kavan tayak.
What is the support for those who despair?
ka-un moo-aa ray ka-un moo-aa.
Who Died? Oh who died?
(Guru Granth: Page: 885, Raag: Raamkalee, Author: Guru Arjan Dev)
Science says the same thing as religion: we are recycled, just like Guru Granth’s Sikh Scripture says that air combines with air, light combines with light, dust settles into dust … We are made of this environment and we return to the environment.
All matter is a form made of formless Energy, ie He / God / Creator / or any other name you want to choose. Creativity is endless and the method of creativity is a real miracle when we look at the creation and development of living organisms. The scientist cannot deny the feeling that he is surprised by Nature’s absolutely phenomenal and most intelligent work of self-creation in all complex forms of life, including man, in a very thoughtful and organized way.
So we are all made of universal energy and now, at the time of death, we become part of universal energy. Most religions mean the same thing when life is pictured as a wave emerging from the ocean and re-entering it. Seen this way, reincarnation is a fancy name for recycling. All living organisms are recycled. It is a law of nature and no one can avoid it.
The basic units of life (electrons, protons, neutrons, atoms and molecules) do not die, but change form and shift. These basic life units also do not age and are timeless and timeless. Baby or seedling atoms are no younger than those of a wrinkled or yellowing leaf. So we can say that the soul (part of the energy of the universe) never dies, but the body dies. The soul does not die; neither sinks nor flows (na jio marai n doobai tarai (Guru Granth, page 151). Charged particles (electrons, protons, neutrons, atoms, and particles) that are the basic units of creation, including the human body and soul (throw) arise and end with universal energy (parmatma), which we explained above as divine force or the highest of all or Lord of the Universe or Almighty God … Therefore the God we are part of is the universal energy / energy of the universe, because the universe is all energy and energy is the whole universe.
In total reincarnation, rebirth doesn’t make any sense.
Since matter and energy can change form but are neither created nor destroyed, it means we will always be around in some shape or form.
Logically, metaphorically reinterpreted, the terms reincarnation and transmigration really mean that after death, each and every species that exhibits life becomes part of a larger biological life cycle. It’s a logical way of looking at birth and rebirth, reincarnation or transmigration.
In this concept of a larger biological life cycle, it does not matter if one eventually grows roses or becomes a worm feeding frenzy; each of them is equally significant. Insects, earthworms, and more all have roles to play, as do plants, trees, and rocks.
It is only when we look at life in a certain form that death makes sense and we fall victim to separation from the rest. This separation is called the ego, generally a product of the left hemisphere of the brain as opposed to the soul, which is part of the brain’s right hemisphere. The ego is the false self that we made up on the basis of the thought that we are separate. This iron curtain of the selfish ego separates us from the Universal Spirit / Universal Energy or God. When we accept God in ourselves and realize that it is not possible to separate ourselves from God and that we are one with God; then we know that we are love, peace, joy, happiness and eternity; and there is nothing to wait for after death. It’s a realization that happens to some and not to some in this lifetime, and has nothing to do with it after death, when every single atom of our body connects to the environment and can become part of a plant, animal, or something else.
We tried to present alternative views through science and logic to questions that were perceived as confusing and contradictory, varying according to faith. The balance of ideas between science and religion is ensured as impartially as possible. We hope they will be more acceptable to our next generation of science and technology. Although it would be great if very religious people would pay attention to it, I doubt it. Have we established a discussion about the soul and reincarnation? Unlikely, although we have given very logical answers.
