A question that was asked by someone centered around an intriguing experiment conducted to measure the weight of the soul. This experiment, often attributed to early 20th-century physician Duncan MacDougall, involved weighing individuals at the moments before and after their passing to determine whether there was a measurable difference that could be attributed to the soul leaving the body.

The findings, though controversial and scientifically debated, suggested a weight difference of approximately 21 grams, sparking widespread discussions and philosophical debates about the existence and nature of the soul. While modern science may dispute the methodology and conclusions of this experiment, the concept has remained a topic of fascination, blending spirituality, metaphysics, and scientific curiosity into a compelling narrative about what lies beyond physical existence.

We know for a fact that a soul reincarnates and revolves around in the lives of 84,000,000 living species also called the cycle of life and death, this is determined by the karma of a living being (Gyan Ganga, P. 151). But it remains a scientific mystery whether the soul weighs 21 grams and if the soul is actually within the body.
