Life after death: what happens to the soul when a person dies?
The Bible says that "dust will return to the earth,from where he appeared, and the spirit to the Creator, who gave it to him ... "Forgive me for the pun, but today only the dead do not try to find out or find out what happens to the soul when a person dies." So I was puzzled by this question.
Death of a man - what is this?
From a biological and physical standpoint, deathman - this is a complete stoppage of all processes of his life. This is an irreversible phenomenon that none of us can avoid. At the time of the death of a person processes occur, inversely proportional to his creation. The brain is irreversibly destroyed, losing its functionality. The emotional world is erased.
Where is the face of being?
The Bible says that "dust will return to the earth,from where he appeared, and the spirit to the Creator, who gave it to him. "In accordance with this, some scholars have today derived the formula of human existence: on the letter, she will have the following two options:
- earthly dust + the breath of life = the living soul of man;
- the lifeless body + the breath of the Creator = a living person.
It can be seen from the formula that either of us is endowed with a bodyand the thinking mind. And as long as we breathe (in us there is the breath of God), we are living beings. Our soul is alive. Death is all cessation of life, this is nothingness. The human body becomes dust, breathing (the spirit of life) returns back to the Creator - to God. When we leave - our soul slowly dies, subsequently reborn. In the earth remains a decaying corpse. About this - further.
What happens to the soul when a person dies?
Our soul is freed from the body for several days, after several stages of purification:
- On the third day after death, the etheric body dies away. At the same time, it's customary to arrange the first funeral dinner.
- Six days later, the death of the astral body occurs. A wake again.
- On the fortieth day after the man was obedient,his mental body dies. And again, a wake. In addition, on the same day the death of the casual body occurs - the person's soul becomes clean, like a white sheet of paper, and is ready to enter the circle of rebirth.
So, what happens to the soul when a persondies? From all of the above, we can conclude that it returns back to the Creator, and does not go to heaven or hell. However, allow! And what about the Bible, saying that our soul after death falls either to heaven or to hell? About this - further.
Where do the souls of dead people go?
Today, scientists are trying to prove the existenceparadise and hell, collecting the testimonies of people who returned "from the other world." Who does not understand - I'm talking about survivors of clinical death. Their testimonies coincide to the smallest detail! Unbelievers say that they saw hell with their own eyes: they were surrounded by snakes, demons and a terrible stench. Those who "visited" in paradise talk about light, fragrance and lightness.
Where are the souls of the dead people?
Clergymen and doctors who communicated withsuch people noticed an interesting feature: those who "visited" in paradise returned to their physical body enlightened and calm, and those who "saw" hell, for a long time tried to come to their senses from a nightmare. The experts summarized all the evidences and memories of the "deceased" people, after which they concluded that heaven and hell really exist, the first being at the top and the second at the bottom. Everything is exactly the same as in the description of the afterlife in the Bible and the Qur'an. As we see, there is no common opinion. And this is absolutely true. In addition, the Bible says that "the judgment day will come, and the dead will rise from their graves." Friends, it remains to be hoped that in our age you will not have a zombie apocalypse!
So, friends, we have discussed someaspects of the afterlife of man. I tried most accurately to state some opinions of modern scientists on this problem. And now seriously. Do you know what happens to the soul when a person dies? So I do not know! What to conceal sin, no one knows the answer to this question: neither I, nor you, friends, nor scientists ... We can only assume, based on some unproved facts of the clinical death of people. Direct evidence of life after death or death after death is not, so we can only operate with the unproven arguments that science provides us. As the saying goes, all the deceased carry the mystery with them to the grave ...
