In our time, the veils between the visible and invisible worlds are slowly thinning. In Blog 48, I discussed the omnipresent plasma, which is completely invisible, but with which the cosmos is known to be filled.
This time the topic is plasma and our bodies. Is there a connection and are we more than our physical bodies? If so, are the common beliefs still correct?
We have grown up with the idea that we are a “living” body, equipped to serve us for a lifetime. And that when this body functions less well, medicine can revive and repair it with drugs and surgery. Eventually, our bodies become so worn out or damaged that they die. Death has then caught up with us, our body is no longer alive, and we are dead. What happens then?
Bioplasma Body
In the second half of his book A New Science of Heaven, Robert Temple introduces the bioplasma body, a “body” that is said to underlie our physical body. He does not present it as an established fact, but rather as a hypothesis based on all the scientific discoveries he has made about the human body. He seeks a synthesis of this palette of various observations.
In Blog 48 I wrote: “The universe is 99.9 percent plasma. Plasma is made up of (negatively charged) electrons and (positively charged) protons and ions: these are super-small particles, even smaller than atoms. Plasma is very different from earthly matter, which is composed of atoms, molecules, and molecular compounds.
Plasma has been found to have peculiar properties and potentials due to the dusty complex plasma, which consists of dust particles occupied by thousands of electrons bound together and engaging in quantum processes with each other, in plasmoids. (For further explanation, see Blog 48, Heaven, by Robert Temple.)
Connection to the Physical Body
In the conclusion of his book, Temple writes: “My research shows that we may have a plasma body that shapes and sustains our physical body. In a sense, we are plasmoids ourselves.
Our physical body is what Temple calls our smart coat, which we discard when we die. (“But we do not die, because we’re made of plasma,” he says in the interview with Heather Ensworth.)
He explains what the connection between our physical body and our bioplasma body might be. Our physical body also functions thanks to the billions of microbes – bacteria, fungi, and viruses – that are in our bodies, on our skin, and all around us. These microbes may serve as “dust particles” (to which thousands of electrons are attached), enabling units of complex plasma to come together, forming the bioplasma body.

How does it work?
For the functioning of the plasma body, Temple attributes an important role to “electro-microbiological” processes in the human body. Just as plasma in the cosmos derives its special properties through quantum processes from negatively charged electrons on the one hand and positively charged protons and ions on the other, the same would be the case in our bioplasmic body.
Because of the “charge” of the microbes – and through other mechanisms as well – there are ultra-weak electric currents and ultra-weak magnetic fields that underlie the functioning of both the bioplasma body and the physical body. It is striking, says Temple, that very weak electric currents and magnetic fields have been measured around the heart, around the brain, and throughout the body.
Although these currents and fields are weak, they can be significant for the functioning of our bodies on many levels. In addition, they may offer us a true understanding of the meridians used in acupuncture and of how homeopathy works
Temple recommends a new field of study: “electro-microbiology”
Scope of our bioplasma
All of this raises many questions that have yet to be answered:
Is the bioplasma body equivalent to our light body?
Is it connected to our consciousness?
Might there be an unconscious and/or a conscious intelligence?
Can we speak of a “plasma self”?
When we die, does our plasma body merge with the plasma-filled cosmos?
And do we then retain our own identity?
Will there come a time when these questions can be answered? Or will they remain forever an enigma?
