Spence: It's interesting to me that in death the energy that was used in brain function and all other functions of the body do not simply dissipate (being physically impossible to do so), but most likely changes form.

You seem a bit confused on this matter. The fact is that the energy does dissipate.

That is, as heat from the dead body to the surroundings.

(As the molecules making up the body slowly transfer their kinetic energy to whatever external molecules is in contact with the body (air molecules, usuallly) at the time after death, until the body is at the same temperature as its surroundings.)

I fail to see how that could in any way be a basis for believing in Deepak Chopra-style Lala-land ideas. What do you find so mystical about this process?

Could your view be colored by not really understanding the concept of "energy"? You seem to use it more like silly middle-aged women in brightly colored clothes do, than like physicists does.
