“Soul” is just consciousness. Which many people seem to equate to the brain here.
There is 0 scientific evidence that consciousness has anything to do with our brains. Much to the contrary actually.
Consciousness truly is one of the biggest mysteries of life. We all experience it, but the more you observe it, the less you can find it.
It may feel at first as it’s a phenomena of the brain, of the mind. But soon after you start paying really close attention to it, you realize that consciousness is behind the mind. It’s underneath it.
It observes the mind. It observes everything. And that’s what it is. Perceiving. Aware of everything.
Its the only indivisible and irreducible thing in the universe that we ever found. Consciousness just is. It is the awareness in you. It is the awareness in everything.
When we crack consciousness, all these talks of “souls”, “god”, “atheism”, will seem just silly tbh.

Source? Everything I’ve read on the topic suggests that it’s everything to do with the brain - damaged brain = no consciousness, even if the rest of the body fine.

This makes no sense to me. It’s just generic platitudes and a wild claim.
You say “quite the contrary”, claiming there is scientific evidence of consciousness having nothing to do with our brains. Where can I find this evidence?
I couldn’t follow any of your reasoning. Can you summarize your central thesis? Because we observe…?
I don’t see how conscience could not have anything to do with our brain when that is where it arises.

Elementary particles would like a word.
