Sometimes, I think of what may happen to us after death. I do not see death in a negative light, instead, I see it as a natural part of existence. All things will eventually come to an end and our Sun will die just as the rest of us will; I don't see that as a bad thing, I believe that the soul simply goes elsewhere.
I believe that we're continuously reincarnated, just in different plains of existence. I believe when our time has come here, (Earth, mortal realm, whatever you want to call it) we just sort of go somewhere else. I'm not sure if when we reach a certain afterlife our souls stop being reincarnated, I'll have to think more on that.
Also, I think our souls can only go to an afterlife once we've truly learned enough and are worthy of going to it, sort of like a nirvana thing. But I wanted to share this to get any other thoughts on stuff like this, afterlife and death that is. So I ask you, what is your opinion of the afterlife or death?
My opinion is we do die completely, after this there's nothing but the void. But at the same time that we live on in the sense that nature recycles everything, the nutrients and vitamims, all that I am made of will go back into the earth to feed something else so in a way we will carry onto live just without a conscience.
That's true, I never really looked at it like that. Thanks for your opinion! :)
Another interpretation is that after death there only remains your formless consciousness, drifting without influence through the void. Or, working on the same concept, death leads your consciousness to join the amorphous pool of consciousness of the universe, of which gets reused as more people are born, and so the cycle continues.
That's pretty thought provoking, interesting too! I really appreciate your opinion, it sort of gives a new light to my thoughts. Thanks! :)
I don't truly have an opinion on the afterlife, while it would be nice for there to be an afterlife with more to experience and learn I would also be OK with the void. I fear death but I no longer fear it in the traditional sense, I simply don't want to lose my ability to continue experiencing new and interesting things. I hope to gain a better understanding of death one day but for now I am merely neutral on the subject.
The void is something many people seem to agree with. Honestly, I don't believe in it, but it's totally fine if you do. I think it's amazing how different all of us can be despite being the same species, sort of varies from the rest of Earth's creatures don't you think? Still though, thank you for your opinion and I wish you luck on finding better understanding of death :)
Wow that's so true brilliant
Thank you!! :D
Interesting question, I think man possibly created the concept of the afterlife because he could not come to terms with his own mortality couldn't face the horrors on the horizon calling him to the void, well mutch of neuro science is still unknown we are matter and energy one could even consider that counsciousness is just energy not mutch different from light coming from a star, all living things have bio electric fields after all, what happens after death is a mistery does our essence traverse into a immaterial plane to roam individually among others to transform latter or as a unique amalgamation of counsciousnesses, I mostly look at it this wat we are all made from stardust born from chaos such chaos emerged from the void, I a sense life is existance becoming aware of itself mind you there are different levels of awareness, from bacteria to ants to fogs apes and culminating in us awakened ones, say if existance is becoming aware and we are matter and energy when we die our matter returns to nature a child of the primal chaos and our essence energy radiates outwards into the void to join the rest of the elements perhaps after eons our energy will reorganize and come together as counsciousness again a new awakening and that is a comforting thought, we are all born from chaos and the primal soup of forces and elements, death is just a disassembly of our present configuration returning the matter and energy too the pool of creation to latter be reformed as something new and different
