It is proclaimed:
When a person passes indoors, be it a hospital ward, hospice, their own home, or any box of bricks creating confines of a building, the window must be opened, so as to allow the deceased to let their soul depart the body and the living realm freely and peacefully…
I believe this to be true, regardless of any Scientific scepticism or refusal to cease questioning the validity of all things I’ve ever heard.
Death and the passing of an entire person’s life, loves, memories, beating of a human heart and lifetime of living a life that families, friends, strangers, colleagues, even enemies and adversaries, is a frightening and incomprehensible thought to most all of us.
No wonder.
More so, in my opinion, rooted in the desperate question:
‘But how can they be gone forever!?’
‘How can my mother, my friend, my lover or child just cease to exist!?’
Some people believe that once a body dies, a heart stops beating and blood ceases to flow to the brain, that’s it.
‘We come from the Earth, we return to the Earth (and in between we garden).’
Whilst I do personally love that quote, I think it (unintentionally) misses an important point, and that is:
After the body returns to the Earth indeed, the soul cannot, at least by most humans, be truly measured, evidenced or accounted for.
Exactly my point.
So I will keep it short and sweet (by my standards especially):
When we lose a human body, we do not lose, at least, THEY never lose the soul.
So open those windows.

You’ve conveyed an essential truth, i.e. that man is both body and soul. There is a spiritual dimension to our being which cannot be quantified. All religions (even the many false ones) have recognized this. Science explores what. Religion explores why. The two are only in conflict when science attempts to become a “religion”, superseding all other lines of inquiry.
By the way, I admire your creativity and the many forms it takes!

Thank you for reading my post, and I really appreciate your reply as it’s also very interesting… it’s a strange thing isn’t it the soul, but I definitely don’t feel it can be 1) understood via the confines and limitations of the human brain, or 2) Ever cease to fascinate and somehow we humans still manage to have a concept of the truth of its existence.
Thanks for complimenting my creativity too! Xx
