What do you believe will happen to you after you die?

I don't beleive in afterlife. Consciousness is an ultra-complex process that cannot resist the passage of time. But death is only a transformation... the atoms of your body will begin interacting in a different way... mainly we will turn in soil filled with alive bacterias, and soon enought plants will grow. Animals will eat them to live, and chances are humans or anything else will eat these animals.

Really there is no clear frontier between the living and the dead. We are made of ''dead'' things.

LIFE is only a really complex organisation of DEATH.

 

I think unfortunately I'm going to have to come back to this shit-hole Earth

 

ill see a white light me thinks.

 

Since I believe we're all spiritually connected I don't believe in individual consciousness, so to speak. After our bodies die I always imagined we'd return to a sort of 'all knowing' consciousness. We'll return to our god-like state and from there we can either choose to return to a certain reality (which ironically will be the illusion at that point) to experience ourselves knowing other life as small facets of god (ourselves).

...or maybe I'll just sleep forever and some asshole will dig up my skeleton 100 years from now and scatter my bones everywhere so they can resell my grave to someone else and pocket the money.

 

I believe there is another Part of life after death here overall. What it could be however, I have no clue.

I do not believe there is overall nothingness. We live in something that is infinit in time span. No matter how big the equation is, Given unlimeted legnth it will eventually repeat the same numbers again.

It's interesting when we say Deja' Vu, it generally means you seen or done this before. Well maybe you have. Its quite possible you have done this same life track several times before, maybe the deja vu is a particular remberance of a past lifecyce that has already been done, rather then a glimps of a future.

The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out, the worms play pinochle on your snout!

 

I really don't know for sure.
However, if I had to speculate, I lean toward believing in reincarnation or some sort of afterlife/plane of existence. I do believe that we have a soul, and that death is (most likely) not the end.
I'll figure it all out when I'm dead. No rush.

 

Reincarnation.

 

If you think about it, we're dead twice. We're dead before we're born and then we die when we are old.

Remember what it was like before you were born and that would answer it. The problem is, do we simply not remember it or is there really nothing when you die?

 

Technically before we are born we do not exist. One must have existed to have died, so we're only dead once. However being dead and not existing are essentially the same from our perspective or lackthereof.

 

i like the 2 posts above

 

Well, I think that after I die, I will most definitely give up Smoking.

 

I believe in two things. 50/50

1.) Your completely dead. Forever and ever and ever and for eternity. Never to come back. Which is quiet depressing.

2.) What Michael Newton believes.

Go to youtube and type in "Michael Newton". There is a five part interview with him, very interesting.

 

First things first I think we all can agree after death the body that we inhabit will be no more. So my body will disassemble but those little atoms that make me will not be lost they will go on reincarnate if u will in to new things or life forms on earth and this thought alone makes me smile.


Now what will happen to my consciousness well this is open for debate and to be honest I just don't know. But what is consciousness or thought made out of it sure ain't made out of matter, sure the brain makes it alive keeps it organized with memory's and u know noticeable in this physical world because its attached to a physical body. So whats left energy I suppose can it be destroyed through death am that would be a ney can it change and transform I would say this is what most likely will happen to my energy of consciousness.


What I like to think is that thoughts and atoms are the same in regards that whilst I am still alive they are assembled in to my body & consciousness. But after death thoughts and atoms disperse separately with no identity to reincarnate in to something new atoms in to well just look^up and energy that once was a thought becomes a force of nature or simply merges with the energy of empty space...nothingness is the beginning of something this is where the cycle of existence stars and ends.


Well I said nothing new but this is what am thinking right now soul is just energy not channeled through neurons.

 

when i die, everyone else who is still alive will be still alive. everyone else who is already dead, will still be already dead. other people will keep being born, living, and dying.

i may simply cease experiencing and existing. a lot of people seem to want to believe that is the only thing that can happen. i'm not one of them, but i do accept that this is one of the many possibilities. every other possibility that has been considered exists, as do infinitely more that have not.

some beliefs say that what i see in my dreams may be what it might be like.
that's one. being born, living and dying, again and again is one also.
and then of course, between those lives, a place like in my dreams too.
or not.

i was born dreaming, dreams that could not have come from experiences in this life i did not have yet. to me, this gives hope. as much or more then the claims of shared beliefs.

 

I believe in reincarnation. I don't know how long it will be once I die for me to come back, but I definitely don't believe that once you die, you're put in the ground and that is it.

How you have lived this life determines how you come back in the next life. We are all here for a reason and need to figure that out and fulfil it. Luckily we don't just have one chance!

 

i like this idea very much also. i also like the idea that there is a very big universe out there, and the possibility that each of our next lives might be as likely to take place on any of the billions of worlds out there capable of supporting life, as on any other of them.

it also occurs to me, that my liking or not liking might not have very much to do with it.

how we live does create how we look at things and how we look at things has a lot to do with how we experience them. on this basis two people could be in exactly the same place, and for one of them that place would be hell and for the other heaven.

i also find the idea more convincing of no one condition being eternal.

 

It's a possibility. Why should this be the world world?

Well, that depends on whether you believe in the concept of heaven and hell and how you define them.

If you think like that, this could be Hell right now which could explain the evil; the wars, illness, crime etc.

I don't think that one will continue on the cycle of reincarnation for eternity, I think that when you fulfil what you were supposed to, you no longer 'live' but are in a place of peace and fulfilment, but still have an active influence on the world.
