How do spirits work? [I Religion]

One thing I never understood about spirits and the afterlife or whatever is, when we die and our spirit/soul leaves our body, we still have our senses right? Like sight, smell, touch, etc. Now I'm not exactly the smartest guy when it comes to biology but, aren't those things for..... A physical being? I meaaaaaan, in order to make those work we gotta pump nutrients and blood through it all right? Consciousness itself can't be what we become purely. How does a ghost brain work? How do ghost eyes work? What about our digestive systems?!?! Does matter even exist in the afterlife? WHY WOULD SUCH THINGS BE RELEVANT IF WE DO NOT REQUIRE SUSTENANCE FOR A NONPHYSICAL BEING?!?! I know people have differing opinions on the matter of spirits (obviously, Sherlock) but the usual depiction is that of just a regular [i]dooooood[/i] but a little ethereal or has clouds instead of feet... Idk... Fuhgetaboutit. ┬┴┬┴┤•ᴥ•ʔ/

Also I probably should've prefaced by saying I don't believe in ghosts or religion but hey, I'm still interested nonethelessssssssssssssssss.

I have had out of body experience during my brain surgery when I was under general anesthesia. I was able to see my body and doctors operating on me from a view of around 15 feet apart and 10 feet above the ground. I even remembered the voices of surgeons for few months after that surgery. I even was able to match the voice of one of the surgeon in hospital with what I heard that time after one month of my surgery.

It has always been mystery for science. But I think there are also some other dimensions of our existence without body(brain and senses). I can't answer all your questions until I understand that myself completely.

I guess listening to this complete video would be informational for you.
