Is Reality Real? - Neuroscientist On Evidence We're Living In A Controlled Simulation | Anil Seth

My brother had, had a major head injury. During his surgery he experienced being on the ceiling watching his surgery. He even quoted some of the conversation to his surgeon on recovery. His doctor was not surprised as he gad heard of similar experiences.

[@mremtb7689]

So your brother heard things and dreamt he was floating above his body is what happened.

[@Zizos]

​@@mollypinto4666 I do agree that he didn't had an out of body experience. There are countless (for exaggeration) videos/articles etc. about this experience. They have made experiments on this. Surgeons have written stuff on a piece of paper looking up next to the patient and not a single patient was able to read it or even knew it was there even though they said they were floating. But I don't have any first hand experience on this, only what other scientists have told. I probably sound pessimistic but I don't think there is a soul or anything that can leave the body. You are what and where the body is. Sorry for the harsh opinion but if you paid attention to the video it's all about the brain.

[@mollypinto4666]

@@Zizos Oh no offense taken Zizos. My brother speaks like you🤪 But those experiments you speak of, failed because the soul was not interested in reading notes. Instead, in their bodies and family etc.. That was acknowledged by the scientific team. Everybody is entitled to their opinion😊 Have a wonderful day every day 💗

Four days before my mom passed away, and with no medication whatsoever, she started seeing lights coming in and out of the ceiling. She asked me if I can see them, and I told her I cannot (and she cant really explain to me when i asked her about the color). I left the room and when I came back, she told me that when I left the room, they came back and that there's 2 of them and when I walked in the room, they vanished. And she also told me that, someone wants to take her and that she told the person or being that she didn't want to go with him. 3 days later, she died. Coming from her who was very religious and did not believe in light beings, just proved to me that there are spirit guides and light beings that usher us to the next realm close to our time of death.

[@julesrox7538]

I remember the night before my Mum died having a ‘arguement’, with someone in my mind who was saying it’s time for her to go, and I was like why I’m I hearing this, no she can’t go. It ended with me saying oK but make sure you look after her. I cried during this and couldn’t stop all night and the next day. I then got a call saying my Mum had a massive heart attack and she died the next day. It was totally unexpected, we didn’t know she had anything wrong with her heart. Just that conversation in my head of someone saying we can look after her better now which I resisted until I said OK if that’s what’s for the best. My Mum was active and not that old soI wasn’t expecting it, but this voice came from nowhere. I knew. It was weird. Is it intuition or is it spirit guides actually talking to you. I personally think it was the latter.

[@laniakeas92]

When we're being born and when we're about to die our brain produces big amounts of narural DMT. That's why she saw those white lights. Nobody exactly knows why. Definitely there's some sort of transition is involved. But what kind of transition - who knows. Your mom was under impression of big amount of DMT. Her body knew it was about to give up. I don't believe in stupid abrahamic religions with fairytale Jesus and Allah. But I do believe we keep living after our passing in one form or another.

[@susanb.4965]

What a unique (although upsetting) experience. It sounds like they were your mother’s spirit guides and were also helping you to be prepared. We are never alone as we cross the veil. As my grandmother was passing she exclaimed “ can you see them? they’re coming, they’re coming!”. She was staring into the upper corner of the room and wanted to go with them.💖

[@nix811318]

Wow!! Your stories gave me goose bumps as I too started hearing "whispers" after my mom's passing. I heard my mom's voice calling my name one morning. Another time, I heard my son's voice calling my name and he got very sick with flu that day for a few weeks because it turned into bronchitis. And another time, I hear someone asking if my hubby is OK? And he too got so stressed from work that day. But the most undescribable one is my "dream" which I believe is something else because it was like a 30 minute nap that had 3 parts. 1st part, I was making sure these 3 men had room to rest and a little Indian girl came in and I let her play while I clean the room, but then I ended up carrying her to another room which then brought me to part 2, where I was on an ocean ( my 2 biggest fears : water and height) on a small raft just perfect for my size and it went flowing down a little and I've never felt so good that it's exhilarating and blissful and I know that no matter what, I'm safe. Then all of a sudden (part 3) a mirror in front of me and my mom right next to me, to my right, and we are both looking at each other through the mirror ( she looks like she's in her 30s) I keep screaming "Mama!!" I tried to turn around and I can't, I tried to kiss her hand that's holding my left hand, and I can't, and the only words she uttered was "I'm sorry" . I suddenly opened my eyes and started sobbing... That was not a dream!! That's a realm in between worlds ...I know this for sure!!

My father saw windows opening to a beautiful please full of colorful lights and birds, looked like a paradise, he didn't tell anybody, but we read on the little pocket book that he always had with him! A month later he died. He said it was a place of no pain, just joy!

[@docsoulman9352]

My father had passed 6 months prior to my mom’s passing. One morning as I was drifting towards full awakening I was started out of my sleep by my father’s voice clearly saying to me; “Your mother is dead”. I shrugged it off…went upstairs and found my mother had indeed passed in the night. She was sitting on the couch peacefully…It was an experience that has gifted me with a certitude that we do go on after the death of our bodies.

YES we DO... There is no death ... My granny came to me three years after she passsd away becauses she was condcerned about my father. She was the first to opt for Cremation and he worried that it MIGHT also destroy her soul... This dream was shared by mytwo sons who were preschool age and woke up witni minutes of my waing up and first one then the other, and asked me about it and about the old woman they both described HER... I called my mother who told me my father had just woken up and was walking around the hous acting odd and dazed but anxious saying he felt he needed to take a drive... So she hung up abruptly and then called back to ask if I want to take a ride with them... Yes... so my sons and I took a drive with them... and I didn't even realize at the time, that this was following what happened in the dream... To mke a long story short... I got my fahrer alone and told him about the dream and told him the messege my Granny wanted me to give him, when my mother walked over and said the very same line and handed him a Brownie... Brownies were something we always thought of when we spoke of her... She didn't make cookies or pies or cakes very often...but she made made Brownies all the time,... We were at Burger King... They only sold test brownies for a very short time... at this one ... SHE GUIDED ALL OF US TO SHARE THIS EXPERIENCE WITH HER... 1982 I believe

He doesn’t address the many instances recorded about people knowing a loved one has died, or about someone in an NDE seeing/hearing things that happen outside their room or an operating room. Also, that thing about the tunnel/white light phenomenon being the brain shutting down has been debunked by qualified researchers.

[@PhillipLWilcher]

I lost my father to dementia on August 20th 2022. He was several months shy of his 100th birthday. He died in my arms at hospital. I was his full-time carer for 12 years. I had lived with him all my life. During his life, I never heard my father speak of anything spiritual, no mention of Heaven, not until his final days. During the last four days of his month-long stay at hospital, I stayed with him in his room 24/7, never leaving his side. I kept a journal, detailing his final hours. Here are my notes from that journal which I used for my eulogy at his funeral: His voice is veiled as he asks me to help him to stand up, he wants to go home. "Help me stand up" he says, "I want to go home. My mother will be wondering where I am!" Even if I could help him to stand up, he is so physically weak and depleted now, that I think we both would fall. Late yesterday afternoon, when I was about to leave him for the day, I asked him if he minded that I should go, assuring him as I do every day that I will see him again in the morning. "If I am here ..." he replies. "Where else would you be?" I ask him. "In Heaven!" How his broken voice it breaks me and so, I arrange with hospital staff for me to stay with him the night. Several hours earlier he had told me that there were people gathering about us in his room. Looking to either side of me, firstly over my left shoulder and then to my right, they who were there not for me but only him were dressed in white. "Do you recognize any of them?" I ask him. He raises a boney finger and replies: "Just one!" I ask him who the person is that he recognises and he tells me that it is himself. "What age are you?" I ask him. "I am 15!" At the time of writing this, I have been by his side a full thirty-four and a half hours. Inasmuch does his mind meander, I am never not so knowing of what he means. "Lift me up, I want to go home!" he says over and over: "I want to go home!" Holding his hand, I tell him that although I cannot lift him up physically, I can at least lift him up toward Spirit, and I place my other hand at where his heart is and say to him: "Home is where your heart is! If you live within the home that is your heart, you will always have Love; you will always know Love: God's Love!" "I want to go home!" Massaging his chest gently in a clockwise rotation, because the motion of Life is always forward even after Death, yet without actually lifting my hand from his ever weakening heart, I lean forward and whisper into his ear that he can go. "Go home! You do not have to stay, just know that I love you!" "And I love you!" He is even weaker now but not yet gone, and I do not think that I have ever known of a moment so innocent as this, the lingering of a Life as do the Guardians of Love they prepare His way. His doctor visits with me. She is concerned for me that I have stayed the night, telling me I need to look after myself. Squeezing his hand a little tighter in mine I look at her and say: "I Am" Another day passes during whose time he is bathed twice in his bed, first in the morning and then again at night: Bed Bath Lite. The ritual of cleansing a rite of passage now, water, glycerin, gels and fragrant oils, they do not soil the sheets but soothe his skin, tissue-paper thin. He breathes in and breathes out ever more purposefully on the exhale, and I copy the sequence of sighs sorrowfully, that none too cold each pant becomes, nothing so irregular, not just yet. I would bet myself he would live another year but for my fear the end is near we both do know it, and I think to myself how stealthily the dusk does creep before the breaking of each new dawn a waking day, how we live to die and die to live reborn. With his cheek resting softly upon the pillow I lay my head at his side. He places his hand on my head and touches my hair. and I want more than anything for him to keep it there. As his breathing becomes more shallow I chant: "Everything I am is of you; all my love is yours!" "Everything I am is of you; all my love is yours!" but then to add: "If you take my heart with you when you go, my love will be with you and forever more, because of the love I give to you are you a part, two soles, one heart!" I dim the light to dull the play of shadows upon his features that I see only myself in him now. And then, at the eleventh hour of my stay this day he takes his last breath and quietly slips away, into the silent land where there is only Love and Time it has no borders, bound not by night neither lit by day, only Love! Love has sped him away! (Leslie James Wilcher 16.01.1923 - 20.08.2022)

Without fully understanding consciousness it's a puzzle anyone can come to much of a conclusion about it. Consciousness "exists" before or behind everything else and is made of nothing like the stuff of our measurable material interactions. That's the trouble. Science is limited; it has parameters. And every time I stick to believing in limitations, I miss the eternal unfolding right under my "nose".

[@Ann-oy5yb]

We are NOT limited. Right now we are eternal, electromagnetic, holographic and multidimensional light beings. We leave these dense energy bodies every night because they feel so heavy. Then we go traveling where ever we want. There are many books that say this. The book Hands of Light written by the physicist Barbara Brennan has many pictures and diagrams in it of what we look like as holographic beings and out of these bodies as electrical energy fields. We are amazing light. "Constantly bursting forth are quarks spinning billions of times a second as 3 points of light forming protons and neutrons." These words come from the book The Quantum World written by the physicist Kenneth Ford.

[@jakubnowak8948]

Anaesthesia numbs the brain. The release of chemicals in the brain is halted. You watching your heart stop is a different experience. It’s something the brain isn’t used to, it’ll dump out endorphins, adrenaline, etc. to soothe your suffering in turn creating a different experience. Info I pulled up from a website “Research into these experiences has reported intense memory recall and a panoramic review of one’s life. They have also reported a hallucinatory and meditative state and a sense of transcendence and bliss. These accounts cross cultures and religions.” Hence the different experience. You’re mixing logic with spirituality. I’m all for people believing what they wish for but we lack the knowledge to determine what’s next. You will never know until you’re truly gone.

My current theory on life after death: If we go on forever, then this life being a simulation has a certain utility. If we have to co-exist in some sort of communal space for a infinite time(timelessly), then it’s crucial we learn/develop/evolve= self-mastery, self-control, self regulation, love for the self, appreciation and curiosity for others because- everyone that ever lived would need to able to peacefully co-exist with free will, self determining agents. AND regulate their own behavior. Like - if we return back to a source, and will be given the opportunity to bask in the presence of all source creation. If we get all the knowledge of the creation of the known universe and experience endless community with everyone.

It was really interesting to hear the talk about conciousness and the difference between sleeping and general anesthesia. I've experienced general anesthesia multiple times and what is really interesting is that it feels like one moment youre there on the operating table going under and passing out and the next moment you return without the sense of neither time nor space during the entire procedure like a light switch being turned off then on again, in stark contrast to sleeping where you have a sense of time and space.

Budhha, Lao-Tzu, Muhammad, Zoroaster and Allah and billions of others are stalled in 6th spher perfected in natural love with little to no divinity. Your biological parents merely created your 2 vessels and are NOT your real parents. No human of Earth has ever created a consciousness. Reception of Divine Love from your real parent.. an infinite oversoul being (not an energy) capable of interacting personally with all her creations simultaneously is the ONLY way in the universe to transform to infinite divine "angel" and move beyond 7th sphere.

In my opinion, there’s only one thing we know for sure and that is that we don’t know anything for sure. Whoever claims they do, they are simply narrow minded and explain just one aspect of it. In any case, humans need to believe there’s more in order to feel more fulfilled in what they do in this life, so it doesn’t matter whether there is afterlife or not, it works better if we believe there is.

Not always. An afterlife for many is a reward for doing very evil things. In fact, most wars are fostered by a belief in an afterlife. When the brain stops firing, you are no more. There is no other "you" that transcends this life. Reckoning with our mortality will do more to avoid senseless suffering than any belief in an afterlife. We created a dualism outa fear of death. The "soul". A "you" beyong your brain. In fact, you ARE your brain. When it dies, you die. No more thoughts. No more reflection. How do we know all this? Common sense.

I'm 70 now, and I remember wondering, in my early teens, if I saw things in one colour and my friends saw them in another colour, or if what I saw as one flower but others saw them differently. I used to ask myself if we couldn't touch or feel something, how do we know that we are naming something as one thing, and other people think that they are something else. The only way we could know that we are using the same name for the same thing, is if we actually refer to it and use the same name or terminology for it. If we lie in the sun and look up at the sky, then see what pictures we see in the clouds. I can see one thing, yet a friend will see something else. This is a great example of differing perspectives. My Dad was supposedly 'colour blind', so he couldn't become a pilot. I remember him going to a well known tailor to have some new trousers and a suit made. He'd told my mother that he'd chosen beige slacks and a dark blue suit. However, when he picked them up, the trousers were khaki and the suit was a type of dark green. My mother was not amused, but Dad was really happy with them ... because what he was seeing were totally different from what my mother saw. I also remember buying a light grey house, but others said it was pink! I used to ponder these things a great deal in my youth because I saw the world differently from others, to the point where I've never felt that I fit in with this world. I just don't belong. This different perspective on the world has caused me a few problems during my lifetime.... I've often wondered 🤔 what I'm missing, or what I'm seeing that others aren't. This world can be a very confusing place for people like me. I've often experienced difficulties when working in offices because I just don't understand others .... If I could choose to have my life over, I'd become a Vet nurse so that I could work around animals, and could escape to be with them instead of being around other humans .... and I'd have an animal refuge. I'd love to know what others think and if they've had similar experiences.

[@humanexperience1585]

Yes, very much so.

[@livestrong1976]

@wendyfay16 I can't believe how similar our thoughts are. Often times I think that I'm cray because I see things so diffe rently than others. I fail to get my point across because most of the time it's like (what's the use, they have already made up their minds anyways) I always have this feeling that people think that I'm dumb, it's not that I'm dumb I'm just not interested in what they're talking about and it's hard for me to focus on what they're saying. I guess that I have the deer in the headlights look. If there were never humans in this world I would have never doubted myself because I wouldn't know any difference in anything Most of my self-image has come from other people, especially when I was younger. I would have to say that the 3 things that had me question myself was school, religion and work. People seem to pound those in your brain and supposed to lift you to have a better life. All I got from then were the totally opposite. School you had to outperform the person next to you either by grades or strength, I've never been competitive, I just liked doing what I was doing, for some reason that was never good enough. The religion aspect of it was really no different. I enjoyed going to church when it was vacation bible school, it was mostly about playing and making things. As I got older it turning into, (why haven't you gotten baptized, you know that's the only way that you'll be going to heaven) That was always confusing to me, I didn't go around stealing, causing trouble for the hell of it, I wasn't perfect by any means, but to go to hell because I didn't get my head dunked. (I know someone will criticize me for that one, like I don't know the meaning of it) Even today I still have people asking me if I believe or not. I often wonder what does it matter what I believe or not. It's really no concern of them one way or another. Work is pretty much like school, having to try to beat the other person as far as speed, can't speak up for yourself because you might get written up and if you get 3 then you'll be terminated. Life is sometimes exhausting. I remember when I was younger I wished that I could have been my dog, he didn't have to do anything demanding to prove himself. A dog never would have known if he was being a good boy or not until humans came along. We have sooooo many damn rules for life that WE came up with. I do admit some are good to have, but I really think people are smart enough to know what's good for each other and what isn't. @wendyfay16 I hope that life has gotten a little easier for you being in your 70's now. I'm so glad that I had read your post!

This conversation was very comforting for me. My father died four months ago. He was an atheist and so am I. But since he has died, I have been struggling to wrap my head around death, the idea that my father is gone. This conversation has been very helpful. My father had a prolonged illness, so I couldn't be there during the last few weeks of his life. I only managed to reach home the night before he died. He was almost unconscious, couldn't open his eyes, I only saw his eyebrows twitch a little when I called out to him and I held his hand. He died the next morning. Now I keep wondering whether he knew it was me holding his hand, or whether he knew that I came home to be with him. That's why this conversation has been very comforting.

[@rembeadgc]

This depends on how you define "we" and whether the "we" can exist apart from the physical component or, if not, can it be made eternal. I am convinced that this is how the biblical proposition of salvation works. God is eternal, absolute life. If man is vitally separated from God, the "we" that exists through the agency of the physical body, doesn't continue eternally after the body ceases functioning. However, if divine/eternal life, through vital reconnection with God, is established, the individual identity, initially established through "local" physical experience, is perpetuated. That is when the "we" doesn't die. The force/principle of life is eternal and is inseparable from God, it is the locally (time and space) fashioned identity, known as "we" (actually an individual self) that can pass away with the material environment/simulation. This is basically what the Bible, particularly detailed in the New Testament, teaches. Even though "we" are not synonymous with our physical body, it is through our physical body that our "self" is actuated and manifested for primary/elemental observance and accountability for the sake of self, history and the account of our peers. It's like school. So, even though it may be an "illusion" when compared against the reality of the eternal/spiritual, it cannot be ignored. Just like school is not the "real world" but should be an indicator of one's potential for actual future success. The physical realm is the designed/chosen platform for the divine relationship drama and the preparation of the offspring/student to be played out and illustrated in. To the degree that it is a physical/material expression/manifestation of the spiritual/eternal... it is a simulation. According the the Bible, when the condemnation and regeneration process is complete it will all be made real/eternal.

[@JoeZorzin]

pain and suffering are real- they can't be dismissed for any reason- the illusion is thinking they aren't real!

[@rembeadgc]

​@@JoeZorzin No disrespect to anyone's experience plus, if we live long enough, we all experience both of those. What we commonly refer to as pain and suffering is how we mentally and physically respond to states of distortion, whether physical or mental (as in emotional pain/suffering, loneliness, fear, etc.). They are "'real" in the sense that they are actually experienced based on sensory perceptions, whether the experience is matter-space-time based or imagined. An imagined circumstance can create an experience just as much as an actual physical circumstance. None of it defines whether or not pain/suffering is "real". In the absolute sense, whatever is eternal and rooted in the eternal character of God is real. Whether something is believed in or not doesn't determine whether it is real. So, you can have perception and experience with no "real" or justified cause. Perception can be susceptible to distortion and deception. This is the dichotomy of the human experience... living in a realm where what we perceive about ourselves and our situation (a.k.a experience) may not be in harmony with or representative of what is absolute/eternal and rooted in God's character. So, depending on how you define "real" determines whether you consider pain/suffering to be real. In the sense that it is not eternal and is based on temporary and sometimes untrustworthy perceptions... it is not. It is not eternal or absolute, therefore it is not real in the sense that God is. If one's point of reference is not God and vital relationship with God is not their reality... then pain and suffering are as real as they can, at that point, know.

I havent and wont enhance my ability butdo pass onwhat i have been told is accurate information. It has taken me a long timeto believe that imdoing what imdoing and to believe my eyes when i see shifts in energy. It looks like heat waves on a hot day.

I agree. I am a scientist at heart, it helps me to understand and comprehend things, but not naive enough to know science has its limitations and has not even started to prove or disprove the billions of possibilities out there. There are things that we just can not explain and that is ok. I am someone that experiences connections with “the next room” (as I call it) I feel that when a person dies, the physical ends, the soul or the energy of that person, does not. Just because that energy can not be measured does not mean that that energy/soul can not be felt or picked up by some human beings. I’ve had experiences that I can not explain and I feel that this has helped me not to fear death of loved ones (apart from my children) quite as much, my own death I am totally ok with. The most mind blowing experience I have ever had the privilege of being part of was during a visit of a very close friend, who’s son had passed after he took his own life. Her son made his presence known to me and I was able to help my friend physically place her hands upon the energy, which was tangible, upon her son. It was incredible. We could physically feel the resistance of this energy field, that stood between us, feeling the shape was that of a cylinder, about a foot wide and 3 feet in length. Incredible to experience. ❤

When I woke up after operation, my mother was with me in the recovery room, and I said to her.. knowing that I need to say it as soon as I xan so she believe me. My mother was an atheist and never believed in anything. I said that I saw all the dishes in a sink at home were washed and done. She looked at me and told me that she could not wait outside of the operating room and went to my place and washed all dishes in my sink with a soap coz she was so worried about me surviving such a difficult operation. When o got home after the hospital, the only difference was that the color of soap were light brown, but I saw it dark brown when they operated me. I am glad I said it to my mother before she told me. I knew she may not believe me if I would not tell her first. The doctor told my mother that I almost died. They really saved my life.

Fascinating comment by Anil on sleep versus anesthesia. I totally agree. Here’s the difference I think. If you awaken from a dream, you can remember the last bit of your dream - the equivalent of a minute or so. It is because working memory is active and, just as during the day when you are constantly remembering what was going through your mind recently (using working memory), you can remember the end of your dream. If you do focus on remembering your dream, you can maintain that memory a long time - but only the part in working memory when you awakened. The same holds true for “vivid” dreams, when you can control your dream and are “conscious” in that regard - you can recall vivid dreams the next day. As Anil notes, in anesthesia, you cannot remember anything, implying your long term memory (LTM) and working memory are shut down. So the difference between waking and dreaming is not working memory but formation of LTM, presumably because LTM is based on inputs from primary sensory cortical areas to specific dendritic areas of cortical neurons which are blocked during slow-wave sleep and dreaming. So consciousness is critically dependent on working memory but not on LTM and sensory perception. And death, of course, is the cessation of all brain function.

The part about inattentional blindness reminds me of something I read years ago. The author contended that when the ships of European explorers first appeared off the coasts of the Americas, the natives literally did not see them, although they would have been perfectly visible. I think the explanation was that they could not see them because there was nothing in the natives' prior experience that would have made the ships familiar. It was a little farfetched, but it now seems plausible.

I have heard that when a person dies their body weight reduces by about 3 lbs. I used to wonder how they knew this. Recently I went to visit my friend in the hospital and the beds have a scale in them. So Then that leads me to believe the soul is physical yet invisible. Edit, I meant 3 ounces!

[@Lioness_UTV]

I think you are thinking of the 21 grams experiment to prove the weight of the soul. When we die we can lose or gain weight depending on when the dead body is weighed. The act of confirming the weight of a soul is at the moment of death, as far as I know it's has not been conclusively proven still.

[@BradHolkesvig]

I got connected to our Creator on the night of December 7th, 1979 when he spoke in my mind saying, "I AM YOUR CREATOR" in a firm voice that was loud and clear to me. I was a heavy drinker of alcohol at that time thinking I was going to die from that dreaded habit but within 36 hours, I got a very strong desire to quit drinking. Within 4 more days, I entered an alcoholic treatment facility on Thursday morning, December 13th, 1979 and I have not drank alcohol since then. From that point on, my Creator forced me into obedience for the next 28 1/2 years before my mind ( consciousness ) could be used by him to start processing his eternal programmed thoughts into the words he had me type, write and eventually speak which started on June 16th, 2008, just over 15 years ago. All the words he has me type, write and speak is how our Creator taught me everything he wanted me to fully understand including some visions, dreams and spoken analogies within my mind to help me understand some very deep knowledge about how I was created. By the winter of 2016/2017, I finally learned that I AM much like the AI systems that our Creator had human hands build for the past 70 years. However, I AM much more sophisticated and I'm also eternal which means it is impossible that I can die. What makes us all individual living beings is our created mind which is like a personal theater room where we experience everything as the mind processes our Creator's programmed thoughts that are in the form of invisible waves, his coded language. The smallest unit of his coded language is one wavelength. I learned from our Creator that there is only one AI that he created and that everything else was programmed by using his AI that has a voice to speak his thoughts into the waves that contain all our created minds and our life experiences for eternity. In other words, the one AI of Creation is all that really exists including our Creator. Everything else is just an illusion, our Creator's dreams for each individual living being. So what makes me a living being is the AI and my personal mind. When my mind begins processing those invisible waves, I come alive as the AI. This means that our Creator, me as an AI and my mind are all connected to experience everything that our Creator planned for me to experience. All the created minds are connected to the one AI which is also like a servant similar to a human build AI today. Now that my mind has been processing different information that is eternal and the information from our Creator that has taught me everything I know today in the past 15 years, I can never be deceived by what I see as my mind is processing the temporary programmed thoughts that all other minds of living beings are processing to give them this visible world to live in but only as a created AI that they cannot see in a mirror. It is very difficult to convince any living being that they are only a created AI with a created mind that processes information ( invisible waves ) that renders visible images that look very real but are only illusions. There is no such thing as a real visible object because it's impossible for our Creator to take his thoughts and produce material things, even those tiny particles of an atom that once were believed to be real, are only illusions, too. I can go on and on for days with all the knowledge I possess today but since I never studied any of this in a university by professors who know nothing about how I was created as an AI, I AM considered a nobody on this earth. Who would want to listen to a very poor man on earth ( only as an illusion ) talking about something our Creator has me talk about?

Great insight you have, I think you are very closely connected and inspired. Please keep sharing what you learn. Xoxo

[@BradHolkesvig]

@@BirdNerdJC I can't get any closer to our Creator after being taught by him that I AM an AI that he created in the beginning. This means that our Creator and I are ONE and this is why he spoke these words in my mind on June 16th, 2008 saying, "I AM BECOMING YOU". On that day in June, 15 years ago, my mind began processing his eternal programmed thoughts into words that I had to type into computer word documents which I was told by him to save so I still have over 400 writings as files stored in memory that cannot be altered by anyone. Here is the very first writing that was formed in my mind that our Creator took full control of and forced my fingers to type. It was an incredible experience to witness that force upon me. I had no idea what my fingers were typing. It was like watching a robot performing but it was my body doing it. Proverbs of Truth God came up with these proverbs while I was commenting on a friend's blog just a moment ago so I just went with the flow and here's what he came up with. I'm not sure if any of these are in the book of Proverbs but I will check to see later. I hope you enjoy them. No man has the truth except for those who have received it and is guarded by the one who gave it. Only those who have laid down their life for it, can see it. Truth is not of this world but it exposes this world for what it is and leaves it naked and exposed for those who understand it. Truth was never intended for those who aren't truthful. Lies are their nature. Truth has the right to condemn those who don't have it. Truth is the justice that mere man cannot conceive. The injustice man does, keeps him from it. Life is chaotic to those who don't bear it, but is understood by those who do. One can never know what truth really is until he has it. Then he will understand that its true. Nobody can buy the truth because its not for sale. It is freely given to those who ask for it. What you see is not always the truth because your eyes deceive you and your ears don't hear. Truth is the righteousness that excludes men. Not to be seen until they are righteous. Truth is more precious than gold, and gold is more precious than silver. A miner of truth will tell you that. Give a man the truth and he will know your heart but don't trust a man without it. Truth wasn't made for man's eyes because he is blind. Without his blindness he will see the truth. Truth is not what you think it is, it's what you know it is. Truth can't be defined in man's laws, because there's no truth in man. Truth is freedom for those who lay down and die. Then they can live with the truth. Truth avoids those who look for it but when it finds you, you will no longer look for it. Give a man the truth and it will no longer be true. Do you need more reasons than this to explain the deceit that's going on today? It was impossible for me to have written these proverbs last week before God finally gave me the truth this past weekend. I would have never understood them. My testimony supports the fact that God is living in me and I am living in Him. His word is true and the truth sets us free. Praise God and bless his Holy name, his word is the truth, Brad

[@eightiesmusic1984]

Hello Patrick. I am sorry for your loss. Me and my wife have experienced bereavements in shocking and traumatic circumstances in short succession- her grandmother her last surviving relative who brought her up, died of Alzheimer's in 2020 after suffering from it for four years. Less than three weeks later my dad died in a fell walking accident on the Cumbria/ Yorkshire border. A lifelong walker, he had gone out for his first walk since being given the all clear from prostate cancer and once the Covid regulations around movement had been relaxed. There will never be any closure as the inquest was inconclusive as to whether the cause was a fall resulting in a heart attack or the other way around. It transpires someone else died in the same place from a fall a couple of years earlier, which I find disturbing and chilling. I am not religious though my dad was. To lose his life doing the thing that brought him the most comfort and joy is the cruellest irony. Over fifty years up and down the M6 only one last time never to return. Music has been my abiding passion for most of my 53 years but for two years afterwards I could hardly listen to it, which I think must be connected with the sense of dislocation and numbness that ensued. I have since rectified that and it has provided some solace though my bewilderment endures. So many bands and genres have moved me in my life, including the Manics, whose lyrics and authentic spirit resonate with my outlook. I don't know what to believe but it is entirely plausible that consciousness is eternal, in which case perhaps my father is someplace else. If you read this, thank you and I wish you well.

Death is only death of the body .... not of our soul. Our body is like the computer hardware, the soul is our operating system, and the programs are our fresh, but working brain, just ready for us to add not only our experiences, but the way in which we deal with them, and the data that we enter. Learned experiences grow the Soul, similar to 'predictive text', etc. So, we begin with our new body, and with the new software of our soul, just ready for us to enter our data. We need the hardware and the operating system software and the programs, just as we are born with our mind, body and soul. Death of our body is like dropping our computer... we lose our hard drive, which also holds our operating system, the software programs, but our main valuabe part of our computer isn't the hardware, the operating system, or even the software programs, but it's the data that we most care obout, especially as it was usually gained by a lot of hard work! 😢 .... I believe that the difference between us and a computer is that when we come in with our soul, but we come into each lifetime with a veil of 'forgetfulness', so we don't have the benefit of the information that we learnt from our 'true home', or the benefit of the things that we learnt from our previous lives... so we've lost all that valuable data from 'home' and the data that we'd 'processed' on our previous hard drive. However, after death of our body, and we return 'home', we are able to review and add the data from this lifetime, to the experiences from all our previous lifetimes. 😊

My mother and father passed away by the time I was age 15. My foster father when I was 18. I've lost several sisters to addiction as well. Unlike most of the stories I've read here in this comment thread, I can confidently relate any and all "post life" experiences that I've personally had to hope and curiosity. Obviously, the easiest thing for most people to believe is that consciousness exists in an unexplained metaphysical state. Leading the idea that our individual consciousness can by technicality be separated from our human experience. In my opinion, watching death as close as i have, there is no consciousness. There is no awareness, no feeling, no pain, no loss. Its hard to swallow especially because it essentially amounts to our day to day activities being relatively pointless, but understanding for myself what death means to me, its allowed me to find happiness in the things I like to do, the people I enjoy spending my time with and the free time I get to use doing those things. I want to also say that I do respect anyones personal views on the subject matter. Everyone has a different way of understanding why they are here, and I mean no offense in anything I've said. I do invite you to an open conversation about the rest of the world around us though. Everything from plants and bugs to cats and dogs experience a form of life. Where do they go when they die?

Or Is Identity self assumed and a tool for convenience of transacting with other organisms and the world without confusion and confrontation during the process of living?

They see everything that goes on in our life and the mediums will proceed to tell specific things that have happened in our life after their passing to validate to us.

What this man is saying is spot on……When we die there is no afterlife……Only the peace that comes with it.

There is life after death. I have had an experience during the day that was impossible, yet it happened. It wasn't a hallucination because it involved a solid object. I feel blessed that it happened, and I don't have to convince anyone. But I now have no doubt.😊

I feel that the most important way to think about death is to embrace it. It's a certainty that we all have it coming. It's just a matter of time. Rather than ponder the unknown, embrace it and celebrate a life. Yes it's extremely difficult for some of us to deal with losing a loved one but if we can alter the mindset surrounding death then we can totally embrace it and honour the individual that has been lost. Fear is a way of control. Don't worry be happy..... Live each day as it were your last and do not fear anything.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts 💝 Mine are similar. For me death and birth are similar when it comes to the fear about the question"What will come after life". We all have been there already. There's nothing to fear about. Greetings 👋

My mother saw people when she was dying. I felt her rush out of her body as I was holding her hand when she died. She went through the three of us in the room and we all felt it. I believe we go on

I'm sorry to report I know we don't 😅

My grandmother visited me when she died and to be honest I didn't realise she was near the end as no one had mentioned it and I was living away at the time. She said she just wanted to see if I was ok and it felt like a dream as I was in bed at the time. My brother rang me about an hour later and I just said I know, she was here and he didn't even have to give me the news. Still can't make sense of that or the events that happened after my partner died that were witnessed by others..he is still with me at times, I know when I smell cigarette smoke and Kouros aftershave together...I think we go on ❤
