21GMS

its said that when a person dies...the body loses 21gms of weight.......
thats it...thats the difference betwn life n death....
as this weight loss happens only in humans....its believed 2 be the weight of soul...aatma.
21gms...really?that less?mine feels sooooooooooo heavy at times...

soul is so light n how much we make it carry all its life?
all that guilt..regret..pain hate n love too....
it must be suffocating n soul must really want 2 shake it all off.

21gms is the weight of life n i wonder....
how that life weighs us down....by a ton.

ths weight loss is due 2 fluid loss during ''agonal phase of death''.......what a term?agonal phase of death?....as opposed to...rainbow phase of death?what other phase of death can be?
anyway....just before death.....body temperature raises to102.6^F....metabolism shoots up n so the person perspires a lot...there is also agonal dehydration due to chemical changes....leading to body fluid loss......which equals to 21gms....
pretty amazing...but this doesnt happen in dogs as they maintain body temp by panting n not by fluid loss through skin...so they dont lose any weight.

the funny part is that the conclusion of this study was not that humans lose body fluids n so the weight during dying......but it was that DOGS DONT HV SOUL.
hats off....america.
