Is it the body or the soul that dies?

“At death, it is not the body but the soul which dies.” “The interim from death until the soul is resurrected is one of unconsciousness.” “Even the apostles were unconscious for centuries.”

What happens to the soul when the last breath is taken?

When the last breath is going on, the Soul along with the causal body and the electrical body leaves the old physical body (this event is called death). At the same moment, it gets into a new physical body (this event is called birth). All three (the Soul, the causal body, and the electrical body) leave together.

What happens when the balance of karma is finished?

Once the balance of karma is finished, there will be no more electrical body. So, it remains until you get fully liberated from the cycles of births and deaths (moksha). When a living being dies, all the five senses are exhausted. So, none of the senses or anything else goes along with the Soul.

What is the nature of the soul?

Across all the phases of infinite lifetimes of birth and death, the Soul has remained in its own nature; it has been immortal. However, due to ignorance, in every birth, the Soul has no option but to accompany the body complex.

What will happen to our souls when Christ returns?

At the final judgment, when Christ returns, our soul and body will be reunited with each other.
