I don’t know, there’s something fishy about existence as a whole

'Do you have a soul' sounds like something vsauce would say

Thoughty is really a modern philosopher mixed with British humor.

I always thought that a brain is like a radio. If you showed a radio to someone that didn't know anything about modern tech, they would think the radio is responsible for the music, sounds and voices it produces. He can damage the radio and it will stop transmitting, he could take a certain circuit out and the radio's behavior would change, and this would reinforce his ignorance that the radio itself is producing the sounds, voices, and songs. In similar fashion, a brain (any brain, not just. human) is like a tuner on the conscious fabric of the universe.

I had a heart attack Saturday evening, the aorta nicknamed “The Widowmaker” was 99% blocked. While I was at the clinic, I went into cardiac arrest and was clinically dead for two minutes (edited, after seeing my cardiologist and getting the timeline of events from him). I saw no tunnel, no light, didn’t float above my body. I’m laying on a bed in the ICU, as I write this. I have always believed we do have a soul, but I say this as pragmatically as possible…dying isn’t as scary as I thought it would be, because I had no idea it had happened. I spent years worrying about it, and I can say with absolute certainty that it no longer bothers me, because it’s out of my control, so why fret for nothing?

Dude the place is so quiet here, its like going to school early when nobody has arrived yet. It feels great! Especially when it's from my favourite youtube channel, keep it up guys!

Thank you for all.

I’ve always thought of the soul/consciousness/life force as almost the same thing. The life is all the same, just in different vessels. Our brains are just cool asf so we can explore things better.

We only know what it's like to be ourselves but do you ever look at other people and wonder what it's like to be them or what being them is like for them?

So my daughter and I were eating breakfast and watching the video together and next thing you know the front door just opened by itself. Normally I'd be a little more startled but watching a video about souls well what do you expect. So I said to my daughter, "did you see the door open up by itself??"
She replied with, "it's probably a soul".
Couldn't help myself and said to her, "Yeah probably just some ar$e soul".
My 8 year old daughters response..." is that some kind of joke dad?"
😂😂

I sold my soul to Keeps. Now my hair is thicker than molasses outside in January.

Aside from mainstream music artists and EA developers, everyone has a soul.

The day that we begin to study non physical phenomena, science will make more progress in a decade than it has made in all the previous centuries of its existence - Nikola Tesla.

In 2000 my wonderful mum was admitted in a hospital.She got super ill.I remember walking into her wade room hearing talking to her long passed away brother. When I entered the room the late brother of hers left.She was telling him not to leave her and there I was standing and she switched to our world. That moment I realized my mum connecting with another world she was soon leaving this our world and in 2001/3rd January she left....her soul left.

i'm very lucky to be alive after a tragic accident in 2018. i had no chance of surviving. i saw myself a few meters above my body. it was total silence. like i was deaf. everything was black and white, no colors at all. i had no material form. but i could somehow look around. above me was pitch black. i could move my attention around. if i close my eyes and look inside my mind, no matter what i imagine i can't see myself, i have no form. in that state was something similar. it was above me a sphere of light, but with no rays like the sun. when i kept my attention on that light, i felt it was attracting me. i move my attention back to my body and i stop ascending. because i looked at my body for some time, i forgot about the light above me. only when i looked around again i saw it. i was enjoying my life and i wanted to continue. apparently my body was still strong to sustain my life energy and i was sucked back and the feeling was like i went to sleep. i woke up a few days later from coma. 22 surgery to put me back, only one hand and one leg proper function. still in recovery, hope i will walk one day. but that death experience was mind blowing.

As a ginger, I can assure you that I do not have a soul.

I always wondered about the conscious aka gut feel we have. Where does that come from and why is it right most of the time.
Very intriguing indeed.

Thank you for making my Friday....and questioning my existence. Keep up the great work!!

Im a diabetic and about 2006 while travelling i got in a muddle, it was embarrassing but what i experienced was a game changer for me, I've no worries about jogging on, popping me clogs any more.
I experienced floating outside me body because of having a extremely low blood sugar, something i wouldn’t advise....but I've heard Indian shamans used to do the same by fasting and dance for up to 2 days while being or going into a sweat lodge witch increases your use blood sugar.
Anyway I had what I can only subscribe as a spiritual experience, it was amazing, i wanted to stay at the time .
A weight was lifted off me, i saw that everything was a cycle like the aboriginal dot circles, i understood everything, it was amazing if i had a choice at the time I would have stayed but i came back.
Maybe it was a body chemical reaction to what was happening but i don't think so, ive had drugs in my life as a young pup and this was something else 👍

I've always thought of the brain as an antenna and our bodies are just our avatars. Just how you're not going to find Arianna Grande inside your radio or The Walking Dead Cast inside your TV, because they are streamed there with waves and certain parts of the equipment react to them. Just like how certain parts of your brain light up from brain waves. That's always been crazy to me that I can't find anyone else who actually tried to study it in that way
