The prefrontal cortex is responsible for many processes unique to higher vertebrate mammals.  I believe this would certainly have to be at least part of it.

The account of the creation tells us that man is composed of three parts. God first formed the body from the dust of the earth, after which He breathed into it “the breath of life.” He caused His own life, His Spirit, to enter into it. By this union of Spirit with matter, the man became a “living soul.” The soul, which is essentially the man, finds its place between the body and the spirit; it is the link, which binds them together. By the body, the soul finds itself in relation n to the external world; by the spirit, with the world invisible and with God. By means of the soul, the spirit can subject the body to the action of the heavenly powers and thus spiritualize it; by means of the soul, the body also can act upon the spirit and attract it earthwards. The soul, subject to the solicitations of both spirit and body, is in a position to choose between the voice of God, speaking by the Spirit, or the voice of the world, speaking through the senses.

The human brain. Look at everything around you, it was created by the human brain. Cars, buildings, nuclear weapons, etc. were created by the human brain. Everything that you feel emotionally, all of your passion, motivation, and "spirit" is the direct result of your brain.

Most answers to this type of question are based on belief but there are a few "Master" enlightened beings that claim to actually know the answers.  So based on what I've read and come to believe all "souls" come from an unconscious God state and are actually an individual mind of God on a journey of consciousness veiled by the bubble of illusion (our existence).  This is a continuous, infinite process from what I understand.  Meaning "new souls" are continually coming from the original God state.  The individual "soul" goes through the process of evolution of forms until it reaches the human form.  So there are some humans that have never been human before but they have had millions of life times and probably in their last life they were a dog.  Then the "soul" goes through the process of reincarnation of human forms because of karmic debt, etc.

Your eyes are the window to your soul and your personality is the expression of your soul.\n\nAs with all things, Those who have eyes to see will perceive your soul (meaning those who are sensitive and attuned to the subtlities of people's personalities). The rest will be the poorer for not being able to see.

They have no cerebral cortex, what we commonly associate with a higher conscience. A higher conscience is what a human has, the big grey matter of the brain. & most scientists (a Philosophers) agree that this is where the seat of a person is. The "I" as it where. The voice in your head that says "oh, I'm alive", so; \nNo, probably not. but it depends if the cerebral cortex is where the "I" of a thing is.

I don't believe the soul is situated in the body, rather the body is situated around the soul.

The Structure of the Soul \n\nA human being on earth unites two parts -- a body and a soul. Each part is extremely complex in structure and consists of multiple components. While the body's structure is reasonably well understood, the structure of the soul is a mystery many tried to analyze. One Talmudic opinion divides it into three major segments: \n--------\nNefesh: the lower, animal part, related to the instincts and to the reactions of the body.\n\nRuach: the spirit, or the middle soul, linked to the understanding of morality and the ability to differentiate between good and evil.\n\nNeshama: the higher soul, linked to the intellect, and separating humanity from all other life forms. It allows the person to be aware of God, and to participate in the afterlife. \n--------\nAccording to the Zohar, which leans toward a mystical view of the universe, two additional soul parts may be developed by very few, select individuals who have the capacity of sublime levels of intuitive cognition: \n\nChayyah -- the part of the soul that is aware of the divine life force.\n\nYehidah -- the highest part of the soul, capable of achieving full union with God. \n\nWhen the body dies, the soul components come apart, and each segment follows a separate road. The lower parts must undergo purification; the higher parts aim to join with God. Nefesh remains with the body for about twelve months, guarding the grave and occasionally roaming the earth for the purpose of learning. Ruach goes to Gehinnom (Purgatory), to purge itself from the sins the person committed in life, and prepare for the future life of the soul. Neshama goes to the lower Gan Eden (Paradise), Chayyah and Yehida return to Upper Gan Eden. \n\nThe Stages of the Journey \n\nIn rabbinic teachings, Olam Haba took many shapes and forms. To some, it is simply our own fully physical world, made better after the coming of the Messiah. To others it means Paradise, a spiritual place. Often, a journey is described, where the soul will encounter certain stages: \n\nHibbut ha-kever (the suffering of the grave) \n\nA Jew who truly believes in God has little fear of dying. He sees death as a simple transition from one life to another. God will be the same there as He is here, and that is all that matters because in either life the one goal is to serve Him. The separation of body and soul is as simple, according to Talmudic transition, as removing a hair out of a glass of milk. \n\nTo the less than perfectly pure, the separation can be more difficult. The soul of the worldly Jew strongly identifies with the body -- an erroneous but powerful notion that makes watching the body undergo decay and be eaten by worms extremely unpleasant. However, this mental agony serves a purpose; it awakens the soul from its wrong assumptions and allows the separation from the body to occur. \n\nDumah (the angel of silence) \n\nIf Hibbut ha-kever is still insufficient to separate body and soul, a great danger looms -- the decay and disintegration of the consciousness of the soul. At some point after death, the angels summon the Jews to the Heavenly Court by calling them by their Hebrew names. Many souls are so shocked by the death process, or are subject to the decay and disintegration of consciousness to such an extent, that they forget their  names. If they don't follow the angels when they call them, the souls may wander off and spend aeons roaming the earth for no purpose at all. This is the time for intervention by the angel of silence, Dumah. He visits the graves regularly, and repeatedly asks the dead to tell him their Hebrew names, thus preventing forgetfulness. To help Dumah in his task, each Jew is taught a mnemonic device -- a Biblical sentence that begins with the first letter of the name and ends with the last letter of the name. This sentence is repeated after every prayer session. When Dumah asks for the name, even if the person forgot it, he or she cannot forget the Biblical verse because it

The soul never dies.  The Greek word translated into "souls" below actually stands for "persons."  The soul is not a proven body part.  It is spiritual belief.\n\nNow the answer:  With God time is irrelevant.  The dead body lies in the grave.  The soul is in limbo, waiting for Judgment Day.  Someday there will be a resurrection into new bodies, needing no raiment nor sustenance.  Souls will enter Heaven or  Hell according to judgment of deeds while the body was alive.

Dear Bruno cs:  We generally recognize that we seemingly have two parts of Mind inside of ourselves.  One we tend to think of as the human Intellect - our human awareness or consciousness.  \n\nMany of us also recognize that something else seems to exist within us - which is our spirit or soul.\n\nI see both parts as my singular Self.  In the physical world we use a human thing called Intellect, to learn of the world we find ourselves in.  But, I experience my soul/spirit as guiding me to Thoughts that are sublime, transcendent and morally higher than what my Intellect perceives and offers to me.  And, so I perceive that both parts exist within me.\n\nSince all earthly things have emanated from the All Knowledge of something greater than humans, I have determined that something greater must be the Absolute Knowledge of Spirit.  The first Spirit is - as I contemplate it - the Creator - whether or not it Created the physical world.  What it DID Create is more of it's Self - other Spirit-Minds.\n\nI see the physical body as a home or temple for the Spirit that I am - the Altar in this temple of my flesh - is my soul or Spirit-being.  The flesh is temporal and ages and withers.  It experiences a death.  HOWEVER, body is an empty thing, an empty vessel  - without YOU operating it.\n\nSoul or Spirit is eternal.  When Jesus demonstrated the Resurrection, he showed a re-appearance of body and a continuation of it - for as long as he desired.  Did he demonstrate this as a special ability of his own?  Or, did he mean for it to demonstrate a Truth about each of us, and that he was similar to us?  I choose this latter sentence.\n\nEternal-ness is an attribute of Soul/Spirit.  I do not believe physical birth is a beginning.  It is a continuing of Soul/Spirit which was, originally, Created  -  not made (as in human procreation).\n\nI believe you canNOT die, even through Free Will, because the Creator of our true Self, Spirit, created in His Own Likeness and, therefore, Eternal-ness belongs to us.  Physical life is like a continuum. . .the Soul makes appearances ; through a process human Intellect accepts and has named procreation.\n\nWe do not die.\n\nBest regards, Lana
