Scientists explained: Does the soul leave the body at the moment of death? Discovered new signs

Scientists have claimed to have found evidence that shows the soul leaves the body at the moment of death. Experts suggest that the energy bursts that occur in the brains of clinically dead patients, when there is no heartbeat or blood pressure, may be evidence that the soul has left the body.

During the study, tiny sensors were implanted in the brains of seven patients who had only a few minutes to live. The sophisticated devices measured each patient's blood pressure and heart rate until vital functions dropped to zero.

Experts have suggested that a burst of energy in the brain of a dying patient, with no "blood pressure" or "heart rhythm", could be evidence that the soul has left the body after death. Dr. Stuart Hameroff of the University of Arizona noted that strange bursts of energy were recorded by electroencephalogram (EEG) sensors in his studies of clinically dead patients.

"At the moment when everything was gone, there was no blood pressure, no heart rate, this explosion occurred," Hameroff said. He emphasized that this brain wave activity, called gamma synchrony, lasted "30 to 90 seconds" before the patient was clinically dead.

Hameroff argues that consciousness may consume less energy than other brain activities and exist at a "deeper level," and relates this to consciousness leaving the body.

He also cited work by Dr. Robin Lester Carhart-Harris, who has studied the effects of drugs on mental health, saying MRI scans do not show brain activity in subjects who are in a coma.

While these findings add a new dimension to the discussions on death and consciousness, scientists emphasized that research in this area will continue.
