This is going to be an open debate about human consciousness and what you think about it and how will it end?
Basically what happens after we die?
1) Do you believe in a higher religious type all seeing all powerful being that will gather up your consciousness after your death?
2) How about a multitude of consciousnesses or souls that would join or bind at death?
3) Aliens? That would go towards #2 choice wouldn't it? Also by definition any all powerful being that would gather up consciousness like in #1 would be considered an alien wouldn't it?
4) Energy evolution, once dead does our consciousness evolve into a higher being? Do we then become part of some other society maybe multi-dimensional in the sense that they can see us but we can't see them.
5) Parallel Universe, how about our souls go to a parallel Universe that's occupying the same physical space as ours but on a different plane of existence?
6) How about the Buddhist doctrine that roughly says that there MIGHT be a higher plane of existence where we'd be judged by the actions we've taken during our life... OR NOT! And that by leading a good life devoid of "badness" we can face our death with the peace of mind that regardless of what comes next we'll be remembered as good people?
Is that incentive enough to lead a good solid life?
Are there other options?
7) What if we're just "meat" and when we die our consciousness just disappears as our brain is erased?
Would you then consider it scary or comforting that we'd only live on in the memories of the people we leave behind?
What if that's our TRUE legacy? What if all that's really left of us once we leave are a pack of ashes in an old coffee tin and photos and memories in our children and siblings?
Full SRS.
