Many people have speculated on where and how the Energetic Soul is connected to the body.  Some believe that the connection resides within the brain, others believe the connection lies within the heart. Science does not have an answer to this question – functionally, death is generally declared when the heart stops beating. But there is no doubt that when the body no longer functions, the Soul departs.

So where might the Soul be located in the body? First, one should not assume that the Soul is a singular Energy within the body – we have already discussed the fact that each major organ and system in the body has its individual Soul. So, do all of the Souls that make up the body depart at the same time when a body stops functioning? It is unlikely in most cases. When some beings begin to pass from this existence, their bodies may begin a process of shutting down. When this happens, the Souls of some of those organs depart, resulting in the death of that organ or system. However, with a sudden (and often traumatic) death, all of the Souls will depart together.

Is there a physical connection between the Soul (specifically, the OverSoul) and the body?  Yes.   That connection is centered within the Autonomic Nervous System, which is centered in the Brain stem. The Autonomic Nervous System is what keeps that body operating, without conscious thought. It connects to all of the systems within the body, so it would naturally be in contact with all of the major organs and systems within the body. It provides major input that works together with the Brain and the Heart, where many have long thought that the Soul of the person (or Consciousness) is located. No other organ or location within the body has this kind of “direct connection” to all of the other parts of the body. It is the single place where direct coordination is possible, where parsing of information to various in the body can occur. This is the location that the “silver thread” – that object, described by people who have had out of body experiences – is connected to.

The physical connection made by the Soul to the body does not exist at a point location (despite the thinness of the Silver Strand).  Nor is it a series of point locations; it takes the form of a generalized connection area, in order to support the Energies and information involved. As death begins to approach, that connection begins to loosen – at the edges at first, and then progressing to the entire connection. As the edges loosen, the connection is not severed, but it does begin to diminish the amount of Energy and information that is passed from the Soul to the body. The connection to life begins to diminish, and as those connections diminish, the organs that are impacted begin the function with less effectiveness and efficiency. Over time, the decrease in one will impact the functions of other organs and systems.  How long this process takes is dependent on the Soul Contract of the individual – it is the Soul Contract, worked out prior to birth, that governs the processes involved in the mechanisms of death. As with other elements in the Life of the body, other organs that may yet to be directly involved in the initial disconnect from the OverSoul may try to compensate for the lowering of the effectiveness and efficiency being experienced. In some cases, the body will respond to these efforts, for at least a short period of time. But as the release of the Soul connection to the body continues (and in some cases increases), the increase in activity will decrease. All of this reaches a point where a cascade of failures begins, until the Soul/body bond is no longer strong enough to sustain the Life force within the body.

One question regarding this process would involve the transfer of Energy from the Soul to the body – does the Soul provide a sustaining level of Energy to either the Souls of the organs and systems, or the body as a whole? The answer is a qualified yes; the Energy that is made available to the body and its systems is at a Vibrational Frequency of the OverSoul, which is typically much greater in Frequency than the body is normally used to. So while there is Energy present, it is generally not available to the body. This higher vibrational Energy is typically used to support the spiritual growth of the portion of the Soul that resides in the body (also known as the lower Soul). It exists there to support the spiritual growth of the individual – the Energies generated within the body for sustaining it are not of a higher vibrational Energy. The Energies needed to drive spiritual growth originate with the OverSoul, and are passed to the body through the Soul/Body connection. 

What role do illnesses, like Covid, have in this process? All illness has an impact on the Soul/Body connection. The real question of the danger of any particular illness is with any inherent weaknesses already present in the body, and the strength of the Soul/body connection. In most people, a weakened immune system is an indicator that the connection is likely to be somewhat compromised. And it is possible to assess the strength of the connection by examining where problems exist within the body.  As an example, Covid-19 impacts the respiratory systems of many people, suggesting that the Life connection to the associated part of the Autonomic Nervous System may be weakened. From an Energy perspective, an Energy worker can check this by looking for weakness where this connection should be.  Follow the Energy path from the diaphragm (where breathing is initiated) to the Brain stem; at the Brain stem, look for the presence of a higher Vibrational Frequency, associated with an opportunity for Spiritual Growth. If this Energy is not strong, a weakness in the connection will exist. (in most cases, this higher Vibrational Energy is always present in order encourage Spiritual Growth of the Soul.)

The same weaknesses that are the result of illness can also result in weaknesses due to medications.  Most medications are not intended to heal, but are intended to address symptoms. The underlying reason for the need for medication is still present, and it may well be found by looking at the Soul/body connection. How to address the source of the illness could possibly be found at the connection.
