According to Osho, the glass-casket experiment shows why searching for the soul with the tools and assumptions of matter misleads. The soul may be weightless, unaffected by gravity, and able to pass through barriers like light or X‑rays; hence no weight drop or broken glass. Until we adopt subtler, non-material inquiry, science will keep denying what lies beyond its laws.
Trying to weigh a dying person to catch the soul is like using a ruler to measure a song—you’re using the wrong tool, so you won’t find anything.
