  1. As you know the DNA – our genetic code – is hidden in the cells of every living creature. A lot of books are written about it. It however strikes me that the question – who is reading the code – has never been stated, whereas this would be a logical question!
    Also a book is read by somebody. It are not my eyes or my brains who are doing this job but it is me!! Therefore there must be a second inhabitant of the body (apart from our me or soul).
    The Russian philosopher Constantin Karmanov has given it a name ‘coordinating subject’. I call it the biological soul in short the biosoul. The Egyptians called it KA.
    So this biosoul is reading our DNA and working with it. Thanks to this biosoul we can further move our hand because we ourselves do not know which part of the brain must be activated and many other activities.

    Vitalism
    Therefore it is necessary that you get to know about the philosophy of the vitalism.
    According to this philosophy each living being has 2 inhabitants i.e.

    1. the soul
    2. the biosoul

    The soul
    We mean the character; the personality.
    The Egyptians called it BA.

    The biosoul

    She is:

    1. invisible
    2. Immaterial
    3. infinitely big

    These qualities are also valid for the I.

    If we cooperate consciously with the biosoul both parties do have benefit. The biosoul is e.g. reading our DNA and makes us able to move our hand. We do not know where the location in the brains is to start this action.

    Perspective
    The vitalism is offering the following perspectives:
    The more intensive the I is listening to the biosoul the more profit there will be for both. We hear vague or less vague (sometimes very hard) a voice warning us for a special situation and other things. If we neglect this feeling (signal) this might have bad consequences. If we listen well and act accordingly we go well. In as far one can say this is imagination I do not know exactly but as soon as one has heard of the biosoul the idea starts to live an own life. One can think to have real contact with the biosoul. Probably one becomes more sensitive for her pulses. May be it is possible that in the future one can become one with the biosoul. This will have a favourable influence on the consciousness or in other words it will be extended resp. changed. Many actual restrictions will probably escape as snow for the sun.
    For a restricted number of commanding possibilities one might call the biosoul his slave, but I would emphasize the word restricted.
    Up to now we have overlooked our companion the biosoul.
    The reason is that the subject is invisible. On the other hand we do ‘see’ ourselves whereas we are also invisible. We can only see our body! Now you have made acquaintance with your biosoul.
    It can be that you now look at life in another way.
    We know that we have not any power without the biosoul; on the other hand it is not necessary for us to get a sense of inferiority because reverse it is also the case, although in a lesser way. The crucial question is whether it is possible
