The
five elements from which the human body is made are: fire, water,
air, earth, and sky. All of these comprise of human body and they are
present in the fixed proportion. Describing it according to the
concept of Hinduism, there are three traits of a human being that
encourage him to pursue hard work and these are Tamogun, Rajogun, and
Satvgun. With a soul in the human body, these three traits can be
activated and de-activated depending on the nature of the person.

The
human soul has the ability to figure what is good and what is bad.
The strong compatibility with the brain is the life force of that
wisdom. A human mind is never at rest and is always wandering, it has
never known any boundary, and apparently it won't. The human mind can
reach any depth, any height and it can even cover distances he
himself could have never thought of. This brain prefers enjoying the
best of amenities, comfort, and facilities.
This
soul is one of the biggest guiding factor of a human mind and that is
where its role becomes extremely imperative and difficult to carry
out. It is only the human soul that has to act to step the human from
committing a sin or an evil deed. It is evident that always the evil
and sin has tempted and played with the human mind. The soul keeps it
distant from doing anything bad. So it would not be wrong to say that
this soul is the priceless gift of God and it is the ability to
differentiate the good from the bad, of course, as long as the person
is alive. And the moment the person is dead, the soul leaves the body
and initiates its journey for acquiring another body.
You
can understand soul as a kind of electronic chip of the human body
and the mind is an integrated part of human body where the part of
thinking or reasoning is always active. Thus the brain and the soul
mix with each other well in human body.
This
is one belief in Hinduism that soul exists but there is no scientific
evidence of its existence. It is just regarded as the power source of
human beings. There is no weight and no shape of soul. This is a kindof energy of God that enlightens us for understanding what is evil
and what is noble. All you need to do is listen and understand to the
voice of your soul.
It
is never easy to do good and not turning towards evil or sin. But
that counts and our soul would help and encourage us in doing good.
Overpowering the temptations that arise in our mind is necessary for
being a winner and a noble and generous life in front of God.
