“BODY” FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF SPIRITISM
Man is Not a Body With a Soul
Where is The Spirit Inside The Body?
The body is a vehicle for the spirit…
We can compare the body to a bus, train, or ferry. We have somewhere far to go, and we need a vehicle.
We choose the appropriate vehicle, go to our destination, and leave the vehicle when we arrive. The body is like this; it only accompanies us on part of our evolutionary journey.
Human beings are formed when the soul comes into contact with matter.
Man is composed of spirit and matter, that is, the body.
Spirit and body are in unity, like the reverse and face of a fabric.
For this reason, humans have both material and spiritual characteristics.
The superior and dominant aspect of man is the soul. The body is only a temporary tool. It is the soul that keeps the body alive and manages it.
The immortal soul uses countless bodies temporarily to evolve and leaves them in the world when it is done.
Without the influence of the soul, the body is useless.
Then, man is not a body with a soul, but a soul with a body.
The soul is not inside the body. There is no organ in the body where the soul resides.
However, the soul is not outside the body because it has no place.
The soul uses and manages the body by sending influence.

Excerpt from the book “Ruh ve Kainat”
In the series of embodiments in a world, as the deaths and the births of the being continue, its work in that world finally ends.
So, as the amount of higher influences belonging to the body that needs to be forsaken there forever is decreased for the last time, on the other hand, at the same time, the amount of influences and values of a body belonging to another cosmos are increased.
Therefore, the being serving the evolution of spirit will leave that milieu with its last death in the world and will pass to a higher milieu, encompassing and with abundant possibilities.
