Life after Death
-
do u all believe in life after death? at this time of the night wondering......Im so afraid of dying. not because of really dying but rather not finishing my things i left undone in this world.
Then, i tink, all tat deja vu, out of body experience, dreams have me really tinking that there is life after death. The decay of our physical bodies doesn't mean the end of everything. All that we have learnt, experienced, cherished, will be brought along to another higher plane of existence.
Im not quoting any religion here but rather in general, no heaven no hell, just a higher dimension that the consciousness will live in. I read this book hyperspace by Micho Kaku. There's this future speculated inside the book that someday humans will abandon their physical bodies and let their consciousness roam around the universe.
Eventually, everybody's consciousness will merge into one and the question of identity of who's who will no longer make sense. Or rather.....immortality.

Whats the point of having life after death, when you dont have a life now

When a person is dead, is dead. Any other concepts are for the living to create and fantasize.Originally posted by Qex:do u all believe in life after death? at this time of the night wondering......Im so afraid of dying. not because of really dying but rather not finishing my things i left undone in this world.

If you kill an ant, do you think other ants will care if they will be killed as well? They will continue crawling around and freak others out. If you are dead, whether your work is finished or not doesn't matter. If you have a child, whether he/she can fend for him/herself doesn't matter. You can try to provide as much as possible but it's finite. Look at the ancient kings throughout civilization, none can bring things with them, none can provide forever.
Existence is cheap. Experience is not. Carp diem and think of whether you wanna die a useful person or a selfish person. That's all. -
u will noe when ur times come. . .

Whether you're selfish or useful doesn't matter. What matters is who had a more enjoyable life. -

so called "soul" or "me" comes from the our senses, memory and experiences with the world which comes from the physical body.
Death means the brain is goner, blood flow stops, cell activities decays, the body becomes still, breathless and hard like a rock. So, the answer is obvious. dead people equal not existing anymore. Only those who are alive continue to exist.
To be useful or good is usually not a human concern. To be happy and enjoy life is the more common goal people live their life. Just look at the charity industry and the entertainment luxury industry difference and you will know. -
Charity is an industry? lol only in Singapore I think.Originally posted by january:so called "soul" or "me" comes from the our senses, memory and experiences with the world which comes from the physical body.

This is a selfish statement. Do you take money from your parents? Why are they obliged to support you? What you take, must give back. If it doesn't matter, no harm giving either!Originally posted by jondizzle foshizzle:Whether you're selfish or useful doesn't matter. What matters is who had a more enjoyable life. -

What i think is when you die mean you die already not like game you die still can revive 1.you got only one life in real life cherish it when your time you have go mean you have to la.... -
When you are dead, you're dead.
Your consciousness may still be conscious. May.
Nobody knows for sure.
Your body belongs to this planet. It will remain on this planet, (unless it is blasted into orbit out into space). The body will change its form into its various mineral,water and gas components and return to the earth. One way or another, sooner or later.
Therefore after death, what life is there?
Don't hope to meet your mother in heaven. Your mother's body is here on earth. Your body will also remain here.
Up there may be the consciousness. That consciousness may have formerly been your mother's. But it is not your mother because it did not give birth to you. Your mother's soul did not give birth to your soul. Therefore no more mother and child up there.
That's why the saying: "Before God, all are equal." -
Death is scary, is an unknown to me. Similar to sleeping?
-
IMHO, when you have come to realise and accept that life is finite,you will be prepared for death. If you ask me, I would say living is a transitional period of what we will be in our next life with death being the final destination. As such, preparing with death comes with acceptance of it.

I still don understand how comes the heart can just stop like that

you can't stop me being a smartarse after saying that...Originally posted by 4794:I still don understand how comes the heart can just stop like that
the most common types of heart attack stem from arteries supplying the heart with blood getting blocked and causing the some of the muscle in the heart to die because it doesn't get enough o2 meaning it can't pump effectively... if it doesn't provide the brain with enough o2 you die... a healthy heart doesn't actually need to be in a body to pump if it has a supply of oxygen, and it's the brain that's the important bit really... however it happens if the brain dies you're dead...
anyway the reason the heart stops is because it doesn't get enough oxygen...
you have a very narrow view of dying... i mean how about getting stabbed in the neck? that'd cause you to lose so much blood you can't supply your brain with o2 again... -
I often have bad dreams of this particular topic because there is life after death and everyone, even those who live in the primitive world revive from their dead bodies and all members of humanity gather and tested on how they lived their lives. Life has a begining but I heard this secret poem hidden in a music track in the Halo 2 Soundtrack. 'Time has no begining, no end, no purpose'.
This topic kept me thinking of my crimes, deeds being good or bad and seek for forgiveness for my sins. We better repent before we recieve the harshest punishment we could ever get. -
Defiitely more to it after life than mudane mother earth.

imo, theres no life after death. the purpose of our existence is merely to populate and crowd the earth and after we breathe our last - that's it - "bye bye". i think of it as much as you do, and it does get frustrating at times. i mean, you get furious when you realize that our existence is that "cheap" and "meaningless". none of us are "special" as to be freed from death.
but on the other hand, theres still those theories and concepts about "life after death", with the "ghosts", "reincarnation" and so on ... but imo, they are most probably mere fantasies we dream up of to assure and console ourselves. we don't see ghosts of dinosaurs stormin around, do we?
*not that i don't believe in ghosts though*
anyway, don't think too much. countless, billions of humans like us, have died and ceased to exist. you, or i, or someone else may die in the next second, be it via intentional or unintentional means. but what's the point in looking into the future and worrying about it? you can't prevent it anyway.
be happy and fulfill yourself now ^-^
all the best.
