Life Beyond the Physical Body
by Theories and events which point towards life beyond the physical body.
There are many areas of paranormal investigation, but some revolve around the theory that spirits or souls remain in periodic and diverse contact with the living after death.
Conscious Universe Theories
There are a number of growing theories regarding our universe.
Some believe that the universe is a conscious entity, and that the universe only burst into life as a result of conscious thought.
These ideas are supported by some current areas of theory investigation in quantum physics.
Doctor Gerald Schroeder has put forward a theory that the human brain acts as a “radio” – picking up the data of the mind, the mind which is external to the body, and adding individual experiences and feelings back into the collective.
This is supported by experiments conducted by the David Lynch Foundation – whereby where a large collective focus and meditate upon peace and love, the crime level is statistically and dramatically reduced for a short time in that locality.
Quantum Physics
In the realm of quantum physics, the human body, taken down to its most basic atomic level, is energy.
All matter is energy – energy in the form of light waves, part of the electro-magnetic spectrum.
No matter is truly solid, as under the most powerful scrutiny, all matter is composed of electrons whirling around a nucleus and proton.
Einstein’s famous equation E = MC2 (E is energy and M is matter C is the velocity of light) shows that matter and energy are actually one and the same thing.
The Law of Conservation of Energy states that energy can be transformed from one form to another – but energy cannot be created or destroyed. The total amount of energy in the universe always stays the same.
Based upon this law, the energy from the human body has been in existence for at least 15 billion years (since the big bang) and this universe was created (according to current scientific thinking) and will continue to be in existence until the universe ceases to exist.
The interesting question therefore is if energy can retain information in respect of its previous forms.
In conclusion, the above list is by no means definitive, but outlines a number of interesting events and theories which may point to life beyond the physical.
This is a topic which will continue to be debated for many years to come and a burning question that we will all know the answer to – some day!

i have to say that this topic is kinda deep, but tempting enough to attract argumentative discussion. I used to study a little on this but only on the surface. I have my stand but i’d like to look at things from many different perspectives and reading this is rather refreshing, for some recollection of thoughts.

Good article. To every new answer we can always ask at least two or more new questions, the answer of which we don’t know. Although our information is expending rapidly, but our ignorance is expanding more rapidly. Today we have millions of questions, the answer of which the sciences do not know. These will go on increasing.

I loved your article, well written and researched. I am not a believer in earthly religions, as they all (except Buddhism)insult other beliefs. But I am pretty much convinced that our energy does not disappear after the death of the physical body, thanks to the evidence you mention. Now, the big question is whether we retain our consciousness or not. If not, then there is nothing after death; but if we do, Wow! A whole new experience!

Great article. I have been meditating and seeking enlightement for many years and I have found myself able to levitate and use astral peojection to discover many more things than I can say here. I tuly believe in the ability to leave the physical body because I have done it myself. I am deeply into the spiritual aspects of life and I can tell you from experience that it is true.

I have believed for many years now that some aspect of a person “lives on” after this life. I personally remember other “lives”
and have no fear of death. This is despite my early religious training that was quite opposed to this…

A week ago I stumbled across a paranormal article in Newsweek that sided with the skeptics. I found this wonderful website about reincarnation. http://www.johnadams.net

I have to say that you outdid yourself on the research that went into this article. Very informative, well-written, and enjoyable.
With the advent of Quantum physics, and many strange occurances such as documented reincarnation cases, near-death experiences, and true supernatural happenings, I cannot simply dismiss all of this evidence as ‘Hokey’ when so much information seems to point to there being much more ‘out there’ than we have ever thought!
When a person or animal dies, the life in the eyes dies, too. Maybe consciousness and energy are simply one and the same.

Quite a philosophical text for a blogger who places so many adsense blocks on his pages. But it is still great. I really liked it
