The Scientific Proof of the Existence of the Soul

Michael Hathaway, author of 10 books on psychic development, past lives, regression, hypnosis and spirituality, and a board certified Past Life Regression Therapist is one of the most respected hypnotists in the country. He published a book entitled, “It’s Time to Simplify Your Soul’s Code”, an easy how-to guide for discovering our unique special purpose and to enrich our life experience by delving into the aspects of higher self and soul contracts.

In this book, Mr. Hathaway emphasizes the source energy of the loving universe as a means to connect to our divine purpose as incarnated souls. He brilliantly describes the Soul’s Code as the unique divine purpose each of us brings to our existence and that which we seek to manifest our spiritual growth. The time we spend here on Project Earth in the restraints of space/time and ego are designed as a learning tool, and we are joined together with earthly and other worldly beings, representing our Project Team. To simplify our soul code, we need only trust and believe in a universal energy that tunes us into our own divine pattern. This energy is the embodiment of unconditional love of both our self and others.

The Soul is perhaps one of the most misunderstood and highly controversial topics for mankind to ponder. Soul expands across all aspects of human activity, from science to religion to spirituality to death and salvation, the complexity of the soul is a subject we examine with wonder and awe, yet without sure conviction.

Psychology is defined as “the study of the soul” yet doctors have trouble defining the Soul. Webster’s defines soul as “the immortal essence, animating principle, or an activating cause of an individual life”. But medical science is divided between the soul/mind and the brain/consciousness as the essence of the human psyche. In 1901 Dr. Duncan MacDougall determined that the soul weighed 21 grams by weighing dying patient’s right before and right after death.

If it’s true that the soul lives after death of the physical body and is immortal, than we also have to examine reincarnation, which incidentally was banned by the Council of Nice in 553 AD. In the most compelling scientific evidence to date validating reincarnation, Dr. Ian Stevenson documented over 3,000 cases of children who remembered their past lives. In his study the children’s stories were validated, yet even this irrefutable proof is viewed with conjecture by modern neuroscientists.

Except one, Dr. Eben Alexander, a Harvard educated neurosurgeon, who after his own near death experience now supports that the soul is separate from the human body and is a true entity, as outlined in his book Proof Of Heaven. His organization Eternea is the frontier science that will identify that we exist after physical death eternally. The Soul is our essence, and, as Edgar Cayce says, we are spiritual beings having a human experience not human beings having a spiritual experience. The soul’s evolution is always towards God and away from material gains. The Soul has sensations and thoughts, desires and beliefs, and performs intentional actions.

As our bodies wear out, the soul seeks periods of rest and reflection. Supporters of alien origin and existence propose that the soul differentiates the human race from other species and is highly regarded by other civilizations. Yet even while the other species look upon our gift of the soul with envy and admiration, our science and religions relentlessly diminish the knowledge of how to use the soul as our opportunity to grow and to align with the creator. The Wingmakers describe human beings as a race of “soul carriers” and propose that this century will be the discovery of the scientific proof of the existence of the Soul or the Grand Portal. Further, that the soul is a fragment of original source or light that we are all a part of and that our human experience is a small part of our existence and, in reality, is a search for unity.

Michael Hathaway’s books help to address the complexity of past lives and soul integration, as well as tuning in to our psychic abilities as we transform into a new, advanced being. This new race is described by Edgar Cayce as the fifth root race, a highly evolved people who are born with a greater knowing of the workings of the universe. As we focus on our spiritual growth, aspects of our direct link to the greater universe deepens and our third eye senses things that awaken us to our true nature of our earth assignment.

So it’s mainly quantum mechanics?

I have noted many, many similarities. Spin patterns, direction of travel, ....

Relationships between souls function similar to covalent bonds while relationships with God function similar to ionic bonds...

I have not focused on documenting all the similarities, but the list goes on the deeper I go into understanding the human soul. Each person is unique but the basic patterns and infra-structure are similar. Personality is totally a function of consciousness flow patterns in the soul. Even being gay or straight is a function of the soul pattern that develops.

“Now mix this with messing with DNA, organ transplants, the possibility of splicing DNA for non-human characteristics in humans. Do these things create soullessness?”

NO.... however souls are sliced and attached to other people. Former Govenor Casey in Pennsylvania received a heart lung transplant several years ago and it changed certain things about him... such as he never drank coffee prior and after the transplant he could not get enough.

Many times it is extra souls attaching rather than no-soul.

Two of my children have been doing genetic engineering and cloning research in medical schools. The subject fascinates me.

Here is a thought to ponder.... When man cloned Dolly the sheep, where did her soul come from? Is it possible that the soul that entered the cloned body was already here from a deceased sheep and it just entered the new body. Since the biological clock had already unfolded on the deceased sheep’s soul it could explain the premature aging of cloned animals!!! Who knows?

It is not difficult to believe that Dr Alexander, who is apparently a brilliant but strongly conflicted man, had a life-altering experience when he became severely ill and was out into a coma. That sort of thing would shake anyone. But it seems he may have begun to exaggerate and embellish his experience, adding details as time passed and the experience became more remote. To some extent we all do this. His financial problems may have spurred him to capitalize on his memories, and to make a book out of a neurological event requires a bit of padding. For me the tip-off is that the scenes and experiences he describes are not consistent with what others who have had near-death experiences relate. Different souls have slightly different scenarios but this one is anomalous and disturbing. As you note, the joy and peace and love that are the gift of a real encounter with Jesus are not apparent in him.

He seems like a very troubled man, and I hope he will come to Christ before he really dies.

Thank you. Well stated. No where near your level but I plod along as best I can. I agree that past lives are not generally relevant to the present life. At one time I thought that proving past life existence was the be all and end all. Having regressed a number of times I discovered while interesting, past lives held little relevance to my present life. And I moved beyond it. Recently I became aware of something you may find interesting. A scientist was trying to determine how information about spin in electron pairs is communicated. What was discovered is far more profound. During an experiment the spin of one electron was changed. The paired electron immediately recognized the change. The information about the change was transmitted orders of magnitude faster than the speed of light would allow. And other electrons in the area were also affected. Thus, when something happens the measured area was immediately aware. And by extrapolation the universe was immediately aware. I could not help but recall the statement that we are all interconnected. Here is some of the first scientific proof of that fact, I am aware of. Science will eventually come to God at the end of the journey of discovery. As will all other disciplines. One tree, many branches.

Thank you for sharing. It even goes a bit further... not based upon studying electrons, but by observing consciousness:

Electrons spun clockwise will form and organized pattern while electrons spun counter clockwise will disperse. The direction of spin causes a link to stabilize between the two electrons. This is exactly how the masculine and feminine aspect of the soul spin and link to each other to stabilize.

What I just described is the secret to the attraction chemistry in relationships.... It’s all part of observing the attributes of the soul. I found I can move people’s physical bodies around by changing these spin patterns of their field with my consciousness.

Time for example is a variable based upon the frequency of consciousness divided by the speed of light.... I’ve noticed that this differential causes time distortion at different levels and is the reason that one day in Heaven is like years here. It really screws up my timeline relating to my premonitions of future events... The detailed visions I had in the early 1990’s and thought they would happen in 1995-1995 are just happening now.

My substance is your makeup but do not look for it to be anatomical and my atomic number is eternal never wasting away for truly I AM Wonderful in ALL aspects of this one word “ETERNAL”. I AM thus an eternal constant and there is no slide rule that can measure my kingdom for I have no beginning or end to measure yet I have storehouses ,does my Word not proclaim this ?!

Do you see I am stretching out my understanding to you of friendship to be and come into your kingdom inheritance .

So let your panting cease and quench your thirst in my River of Life and eat from the Nectar of My Tree of Life.

For I AM all these things and more just step through with your surrender to graduate into my understanding for I did not give you a spirit of fear and my love and power await your “YES” and My “Amen” harkens for your voiced reply even NOW !

So come ! And delight in the garden of my ways for I AM all you seek and desire , come up higher to the place where you belong ! ! !

I warned Eben what was going to happen to him as my death from meningitis was almost twenty years to the day prior to his near death from the same illness.... Mine November 1988, his November 2008. I purposely did not share mine as I thought I was NUTS at the time. He had his birth family that had put him up for adoption with him at the time and he got caught up in the emotional frenzy of the group. You can’t have two masters.... Either self or God... That’s why diminishing self is critically important!

Dr. Mary Neal, the orthopedic spinal surgeon in Jackson Hole WY and Anita Morjania who had very profound near death experiences and did not digress from the experience by owning it as a possession from ego self. Eben fell into the trap that causes the ego self to seek self validation for recreation, a process that fills self so full there is no room for God. I speak from experience that Eben’s battle is one that a person must constantly be on guard against. I do not criticize Eben, but feel for him as he has chosen the more painful experiential path which will allow many others to learn and grow by observing him.

Side note: I know exactly what Eben’s soul issue is and it is a very difficult one to carry.... The wound of being an unwanted pregnancy and then being rejected by his parents when he was put up for adoption created a feeling of rejection at the soul level that causes one to never feel good enough no matter their accomplishments in life. He could be an Olympic gold medalist or a Nobel Prize winner and still would not feel good enough. It’s how the soul flow pattern develops personality. If God creates the coincidence, I’ll help him resolve the wound. I feel the wound just by waling up to him. He really is a good guy and has helped millions with his sharing.

I was speaking from my own words and experiences while at the same time understanding what Jesus meant in His teachings.

There was much that Jesus did not come out and say as He did not want people to strive to obtain the abilities or gifts which He was able to perform. He wanted people to grow closer to God where the abilities are a natural attribute of the person’s level of spiritual development of their soul.

Many people try to get me to teach them how to do what I do. My response is to read the Bible, pray and meditate on its meaning. If you obtain the abilities but do not grow you will be like the people who used Jesus’ name and He did not know them. The ego self develops pride in the abilities as it takes ownership and forms an huge identity around them. This creates separation from God as when a person is full of themselves, they have no room for God. This is why dying daily or emptying self is so important.

If a person holds onto an ability as an identity, it shackles them from growing higher. The rung on the ladder that you use to climb will hold you back if you cannot let go of it to climb higher.

Back to the many mansions... Each level of consciousness in the Tower of Babel is a different room with different abilities and perceptions. As you follow commandment number one, Love God with All..... you grow closer to God and reach the higher levels. Some levels are very difficult to experience while still in the physical body. My near death experience gave me a taste of those levels, and then I was sent back into my body with the knowledge that I could transcend self while still in my physical body if I followed Jesus’ teachings.

Just to give you a simple example of why Jesus’ teachings are so important to different perceptions of your reality. In depression, you can find your consciousness at such a low level that even mole hills in front of you appear to be mountains. With prayer and meditation and cleansing your soul while staying focused upon God, you can raise your consciousness perspective to the level where even mountains appear as mole hills. Each level is a different perception of your reality. Through prayer and meditation and staying focused on Loving God, you can have your consciousness transcend the physical body and be born of the spirit. At that time you begin to perceive a whole new reality again. (You truly become born again) Just as your reality when you were in your mother’s womb was limited to your environment, and when you were born of the flesh you began perceiving from your physical body senses a whole new reality, when you transcend the body and begin perceiving from your soul or spirit you have a whole new reality, right here in the same physical space. That is why Jesus said you must go within to find thy Father.

Jesus did not take credit for His abilities. He always treated them as His Father working through Him as He always strived to be “One with His Father.” That is the exact reason Jesus wants you to take Communion and be “One with Him.” Sounds very Buddhist doesn’t it? They were both saying the same thing.
