Mike the Headless Chicken (April 1945 – March 17, 1947) – a true miracle that science still can’t fully explain.
A Wyandotte rooster lived 18 months after being beheaded, earning national fame and a spot in the *Guinness World Records* for the longest survival of a headless chicken. Each May, his hometown of Fruita, Colorado, celebrates “Mike the Headless Chicken Day.”
The mystery: despite modern neuroscience claiming consciousness arises from the brain, Mike’s continued breathing, movement, and basic functions without a head challenge that view. It stands as a striking reminder that some phenomena—life, resilience, even consciousness—may point beyond mere chemistry, hinting at a divine miracle.
Ancient wisdom validated: this phenomenon aligns with the *Vedic (Hindu) understanding* that the soul (ātman) resides in the *heart*, not the head. Mike’s survival, driven by instinct and vitality, suggests a deeper, soul-driven force sustains life—transcending physical structures like the brain. 🙏🐓✨
Science may struggle to explain, but the miracle of Mike reminds us: the essence of life lies beyond the physical realm.
