Consciousness surviving physical death (the soul leaving the body behind at the moment of death) has been accepted by many of the world's major religions for centuries, but a good proportion of the scientific establishment is yet to catch up.
There is a rapidly accumulating body of evidence mainly from OBEs, NDE's, death bed visitations, as well as the work of evidential mediums from all over the planet that we are spiritual non physical beings having a temporary, physical human experience.

When the brain dies, the mind and hear ceases to exist; but the SOUL carries on.
