(5) **Scriptural Authority** - Many ancient scriptures advocate the independent existence of the soul. Those scriptural scholars who have investigated the subject of the soul with great peace and seriousness, if we dismiss their scriptural experiences without experiencing them ourselves, whose fault is it? Nowadays, we see many great souls who have spent their lives in contemplation of the soul. If we do not accept their pure experiences based on our own deluded experiences, then the deficiency lies with us. Ancient scriptures and contemporary experienced great souls are selflessly revealing the existence of the soul.
(6) **Agreement of Modern Scientists** - Nowadays, people often want to know the opinion of scientific scholars to clarify every subject. It is true that many Western physicists do not believe in the soul, but they are doubtful about it. However, there are many great scientists who have spent their entire lives in the pursuit of physical thought, but their vision has also reached beyond the physical to the essence of the soul. Among them, Sir Oliver Lodge and Lord Kelvin are famous in the scientific world. Both these scholars are in favor of considering the conscious principle as connected to the material. They have refuted the arguments of materialists with great care. Their view is that without the independent existence of consciousness, the unique structure of living beings cannot be formed. I do not consider the brain to be the root of knowledge, like other materialists, but I consider it to be merely a means of the emergence of knowledge.
The world-renowned scientist Dr. Jagadish Chandra Bose's research has established that plants also possess memory. Through his discoveries, he has compelled the scientific world to accept the independent soul principle.
