Human life begins with a unique creation, possessing inherent vitality from conception. Even before fertilization, both sperm and ovum exhibit life.

Prior to this, the creation is linked to four specific elements detailed in religious texts. The spirit, or soul, is infused into the embryo after this 120-day period, encompassing and permeating its very being.
