I have been doing some research into what others thought of the soul,and to where it may be found?Plato,thought that the vital principle was in the brain and
the spinal cord,Strato placed it in the forepart of the brain,between the eyebrows,Hippocrates placed the consciousness or soul in the brain,and Herophilus made the calamus scriptorius the chief seat of the soul.Erasistratos
located the soul in the cerebellum or little brain,and stated that it was concerned in the co-ordination of movement.Roger Bacon regarded the centre
of the brain as the place where the soul is found.All these great thinkers knew
of the reality of the soul,they could not just agree to its location in the body.
One vital thing to remember is that we are not bodies with a soul.rather we are
souls with bodies,and the soul uses them like we use cars,the body is just a
vehicle of expression for the soul,to gain entrance into the physical world and
gain experence of living through the evolutionary cycle.
