Trigger Warning What if we have it all wrong about death?

Bullshit.
I don't have to serve anybody.*
You my man serve your integrity. You put the effort in. At least from what I see of posts. You are for your fellow man as human beings which really is the goal of life if you ask me. Believe it or not. What else is that? You do serve what you believe.
Either it'll be like it was before we were born (nothingness) or it'll be something that totally surprises everybody.
Here is where people don't use critical thinking. When someone goes to bed at night looking forward to releasing themselves to sleep and the great unconsciousness what makes them think they will wake up? How do we know a person's heart just doesn't stop? That happens. I met one woman terrified of going to sleep at night for fear of not waking up. Most of us have the faith we will wake up but most look forward to sleep and blinking out. so I agree. 50/50. Beautiful Nothingness or Something. But don't bank on Nothingness. Wisdom means something.

Bullshit.

It may be the devil (evil), or it may be the lord (goodness and humane) but your gonna have to serve somebody... ;)
 
Either nothing happens after death or some version of my consciousness continues on after my death. I'm open to and would be okay with either.

If nothing happens then I'm off the hook and this drama ends. If something happens, then I get to find out what the mystery has all been about.

It's win-win.
 
What if life is not the wonderful ideology we are told it is and death is the favorable state to astride for? That would indicate all along we’ve been lied to by the innocence of fear portrayed by death. Life is a precursor to death could it be death is the joy of living and not life itself.

This does not mean we should hurry death along on the contrary we must wait for death to choose us and only then are we prepared to be fulfilled by death. No one really knows what happens when our physical bodies close down and fail to regenerate. Does consciousness continue and to what purpose does our conscious serve without a brain and body to move about? It seem egotistical and vain to assume our consciousness is stored or continue to be useful in the grand scheme of things, after all we are merely creatures like animals born on earth waiting for….death?

What is it worth to live if not to live fully without regret? Regret is like living under a wet blanket where to the spark of life is snuffed out before you can grab it and run with it. Guilt is the same as regret it stifles the mind and slows growth. You must shed this baggage to live fully and consciously. The world is not open to a closed mind. Death may not be the final frontier, one step at a time until…are we there yet? Perhaps death is the wonder we strive for?
 
Yeah not waking up would be cool.
But who can define death? For that matter what is definition?
The idea of losing a family member is in my head every day. Terrorizes me at first light. That's not cool imo but working on that one. Trying to see it from a less dark lens. Not sure the outcome guessing we'll see.

Only the living suffer it's said. Is this actually true? Not sure. Not sure anyone else can say. My encounters with "death" have so far ended with me still alive (go figure). Or altered state I am not who I used to be after encounters with this death thing. Things change in some ways (for myself) and after each experience I feel I am a different version of myself. Not sure how to put it into words.
I don't know where I will be in the next moment but if I am there and conscious/sentient I would prefer to see things in a brighter light (if you will) than what I see right now which is fairly dim and blurry.

Death may sound exciting but is it? What the hell is in the other side (if there is another side)? So far all I have seen is nothing....

Given how many religious people there are in the world, I'd say MOST people are all wrong about death. When you die, you no longer exist. Exactly like BEFORE you existed.
So I guess death is the preferable state if your life is overall a net negative experience?

If there is no afterlife, did humans invent god, religion and faith to instill hope, conformity and control? The Bible is a sophisticated work of rules, regulations and examples humans gone astray and punished for their ill gotten actions simply because they disobeyed the rules. This does not by any means make the Bible true, however it certainly strikes fear into those who believe from straying from the so-called truth.
The only thing religion has going for it is fear of abandonment. Think about it, if you sin you are punished and cast into the fiery pit of hell, unless you admit you are sinner and powerless without god you may be saved and join god in the ever after?
Now that you’re saved, you must act according to the Bible and spend the rest of your life trying to be like Jesus.
Wake up!! Stop trying to be anything other than who you are.
You are not special in the eyes of the world until you know who you are.
is there an afterlife of reward for being born? Only in us humans that consider themselves gods gift to mankind. Get over yourself, learn your role in life and be the best of who & what you are. That’s your reward.
 
People choose their paths some choose religion, mysticism, supernaturalism etc. I choose to believe in things I understand like happiness, knowledge and love. Just because I understand love, life and living does not mean I can explain how they work, it’s what I do with them that matters.
I am responsible and accountable for me I don’t depend on god, religion or any other third party belief other than myself.

Initially "gods" were invented to try and explain things people didn't understand [I mean stuff that is extremely basic to us now, like where the sun goes at night]. Modern, organized religion is all about control and oppression.

I would say the bible has the 0PP0SITE of "a sophisticated work of rules" given that literally everything in that book is directly contradicted by something else in it.
 
Thanks to the net I can say that Im allmost sure that theres something after death. We have been lied about allmost everything and taught in the school and universitys to be sheeps, to be a gear teeth for the system. We are being fucked with magic and technology trying to keep our vibration low, not to expand our counciousness and there are people and entities that act like vampires of our energy. We are more than matter, we are souls, energy. And soul is eternal, you cannot destroy energy.

Theres a cabala master called Mario Sabán that is wonderfull and I have been seeing him in some podcast in youtube. He is showing to the world that cabalists( the jewish mysticism) know things that physics is getting know but but hundreds of years before. And yes we live in a matrix. And they know very well the laws of the universe.

In many films we can see lots of things that exist in this reality, but that is shown to us to make us think that its not true when some real info of the same kind you get in to.. Its a psycological process called negative priming. Thats a manipulation tool.

Last night I saw the most overwelming podcast of a man that can interact with spiritual guides and he did it live and he was answering the questions that the interviewer asked, but the answers were of the spiritual guides thrue the man. Some of the things I wrote are those answers and theres is more to be showing up for the next 3 years. I forgot to say that we were lied about we are incomplete and that we belong to the source, and we are pure light and love is the more powerful force.

Peace and love

Gods actually may have been the experience people had when their right brain signaled their left brain to take a thought/observation/idea and put it into action. According to Jaynesian theory - bicameral mentation would have been experienced as command auditory hallucinations by early modern man, and at the time that modern consciousness began to emerge (2nd millenia BC) there was widespread social collapse and writings which indicate a belief that 'the gods have abandoned us'. It is believed that perhaps the emerging consciousness in Mediterranean societies was experienced and understood as a traumatic abandonment by the gods.
