Is the soul a product of body function?


The soul is the spiritual or eternal part of a living thing, that is inside us. Some religions thoughts that the soul is the energy that gives movements to the physical body.
In the times of aristotle the soul was something immaterial, independent of the body and capable of surviving its death.The soul represent all what we are and also how we are.
Aristotle say that the soul is an important part that human beings have because is the complement of the body. The soul without a body can´t work.
He said that the body was only the way to transmit the process like the thougth, reason. the physic functions like memory,breathing,emotions.The capacity of human beings are given by the soul and trough the body.
Soul manifested your feelings like sadness, anger, happinnes and said to the body how have to act.
Aristotle said that the soul is something eternal capable to survive to many things even dead.that your soul can save and keep information memories or experinces.
Finally we can see that the soul is not a product of a body function, the body is the product of the soul orders.
Both are very important to human beings.

PLATO

Everything we know about Socrates is for Platos writings.
Plato is going to question the reality.
he said that theres some guys living 8ihn a dark cave and they see that the lights come and they can see their own shadows ( back cave )reflected.
Plato said that thats the world. (allegory of the cave).
Plato think that in this world there is no truth so he divided the world: gala: were people live, uranus, sky, hyperuranus, truth, world of ideas. An idea is the perfect escence of things.
Plato is the first rationalist because to understand worlds we reason.
Plato said that eros (cupid)is reflected (body)and psyche (mymph)is real world (mental. reality, true, and beautiful are the same.
Art is a recreation of nature so is a double fallacy.
