It's pseudoscience backed up by anecdotal stories which strike me very similar to stories about the paranormal or UFOs (not that it proves the stories are wrong, but that such evidence is horribly unreliable.) Why even have eyes and ears if "souls" can apparently get sensory input without them? Why would people with brain damage have impaired cognitive function? Why would neurons act like the kind of complex information processing structures we would expect, if information was processed outside the brain? Why do MRIs and EEGs of the brain correlate so well with the mind? Why has no mechanism of this "transmission" ever been discovered? How would such a thing even be possible with the laws of physics? How would evolution evolve such a mechanism in the first place, or biology produce it through mere chemical reactions? Nothing about it makes any sense. But a lot of people believe it anyways because religion.
