The life of the body is a power, a force. Where does it come from and where does it go when the body dies and this life leaves?J'C: The life of the body comes from the survival characteristics of its ancestors back to that amoeba mentioned recently. The power and force come from the society of which it is a part and which provides the nurturing and training so that the person can have whatever influence they are capable of having in their society. For some that maybe only be their family and friends but that is a significant contribution. Others may have a wider influence for good or for evil, but all affect some and the legacy is secure again for good or for evil. The force is a part of the body and dies when the body does. Only the legacy lives in the others that were affected by the person while alive and the stories and myths they perpetuate about the person.

I'm a little surprised Seefan couldn't find the word "lifeforce" to put in his question but he got close. The residual heat and electromagnetic energy of a body disapates after a death and is not replaced. One of the various concepts of soul is "animaing agent;" the concept indicates a departure of the animating agent causes the "lifeforce" to depart the body. I believe the disappation of heat and the electric field is the energy mistaken for "lifeforce;" the former are residual effects of a body being alive, and their departure is quite orderly when the engine that produces them stops. The crackpots have gone so far as to try to "weigh" or otherwise measure the disipating energy.
