   There is an interesting similarity between the concept of the soul that can be   
   found in mystical/esoteric literature and quantum field theory. In mysticism   
   there is the idea of a universal soul or an all-encompassing "sea of spirit"   
   that can be    
   identified with God, from which the individual souls emerge, like waves or   
   ripples in the sea. In quantum field theory, matter is a vibrating energy   
   field that is spread out in all space and particles are localized energy   
   excitations of this field.   
      
   The activity of the souls may or may not include incarnation in a   
   physical/material form. When they are in a discarnate state they are said to   
   exist only in the spiritual world, while in an incarnate state they are said   
   to exist in the physical world (   
   but simultaneously also in the spiritual world because they still remain   
   offshoots of the "sea of spirit" in the spiritual world, although they may not   
   be conscious of it).   
      
   This gives rise to the question about the nature of the spiritual world and   
   its relation to the physical world. Due to the above mentioned similarity   
   between spirit and matter it seems that spirit might be a new type (or types)   
   of energy field and    
   related particle, in principle describable by quantum field theory (or an   
   expanded version thereof). Spirit is often described as more interconnected   
   and fluid than matter, which may indicate that its field aspect is less   
   susceptible to collapse (has    
   more stable acausal/quantum-mechanical connections) or it has less friction.   
   But why has spirit not been detected by physicists yet? If it is true that it   
   interacts with our physical bodies then there is interaction between spirit   
   and matter and so    
   spirit should in principle be detectable by physical instruments. If there is   
   such interaction it seems to be well hidden or limited... (spiritual   
   literature mentions a kind of "silver cord" between spirit and human physical   
   body)
