THE BODY AND SOUL CONNECTION

Physicists have now discovered what our seers had already discovered and announced to the world thousands of years ago – that matter is actually energy. Physicists have shown now that anything ‘physical’ is made up of an infinite number of vibratory particles. Einstein in his world famous equation has explained that matter and energy are interconvertible but can never perish. This implies that our bodies or physical forms are made up of basically the same vibrating particles which physicists call as quarks. So our bodies are an energy form of a denser kind that is of a comparatively low frequency and the soul probably is an energy form vibrating at a much higher frequency. The body is tuned to how we have to live life not only to survive on this planet but also to grow and thrive and yet be in social harmony with other bodies. Since the body is a lower energy form it has its limitations and hence access to lesser knowledge. The soul belonging to a higher energy form has a much larger vision and perspective and thus a greater knowledge of the reality. However just like it is difficult for a scientist to explain his research to a 5 year old – similarly the soul is ill equipped to understand how to live in a human body (of a lower energy form) with its desires, attachments etc. By the same logic, the body is out of depth with the soul – like it is difficult for a 5 year old to apprehend the theory of a scientist. But the soul is the source of our knowledge and if we are out of touch with it we will be lost and life will be one tremendous struggle. Spirituality is the journey of trying to re-establish the contact of the body with the soul – and when there is integration of body and soul then there is a balance in life – bringing fulfillment at the body and the soul level.
