This is what I thought the angle you were taking...
Interesting concept. So what do you think happens when we die? Do we ever truly die?
Are you a theist? If so what is your faith?
im still trying to figure the death thing out.
ive been reading a lot of NDE stories to gain insight, if possible, as well as reading more scientific and philosophical concepts.
most suggest that when we die, if our spirit is at rest, then we can go into the 'light' and become 'one' with the source again...but i think its propaganda to buy back into the re-incarnation cycle. im not trying to come back as anything else but myself, if i ever come back at all. id prefer to be a travelling, invisible consciousness. basically my mind, spirit and soul, just without a body, or with the option of manifesting in a body of some sort if necessary to communicate with other beings. i wouldn't want to exist without the ability to communicate. heaven sounds pretty great, but idk if ill make the cut.
we're technically dying since the moment of our birth..
i was raised jewish and bar mitzvahed, but i never fully bought into the faith, was basically forced to do it against my will. i was agnostic for the longest of times, but life experiences and further analysis lead me to believe that there certainly is a higher power of some sort, or at least was. there is too much order in the universe for it to have occurred via happenstance, but it is impossible to tell whether G-d is still active or if whatever G-d is/was just laid down the framework and formulas then bounced.
i began writing a book a few years back, and got about 30 pages deep in theory. my theory is that our universe began because there was literally nothing in existence, which contradicts logic and is a paradox. nothing can't exist. so then, nothing blew up on itself and started a procession of logical creations. what would you start with when creating a universe? A G-d. The beginning of genesis sort of sums this up, ironically.
the only problem is that, in my theory, logic/code pre-dates our universe. so this means that we are a pocket universe, a parallel universe of some sort, or a universe residing within a black hole.
i believe that our imagination/thoughts power the universe and bring things into existence. this stems logically from the universe being a conscious being as well as the theory that supernatural deities need our worship to attain more power. this brings me with some fear though, because if this is true, then we are also manifesting and creating many negative energies/entities without intention. maybe the devil didn't exist until the humans collectively believed that he did, for example. on the flip side, this could mean that upon death, we determine what happens to us, based on justified true belief. maybe you go where you think youre gonna go, and maybe what happens to you is what you think is gonna happen to you.
