Is There Life After Death? moderated by John Cleese - 2018 Tom Tom Festival

[@samanthasays3603]

My teenage son has terminal cancer. I need to hear this stuff. EDIT. My son died yesterday, August 26th. He went peacefully in his sleep. Since his type of cancer spread and made organ donation impossible, we have approved the hospital to take the affected organs for testing and research. Hopefully, another family will never have to go through this hell.

If he passes he will be with JESUS CHRIST IN HEAVEN AND IM SURE

[@morrislucero810]

There are alot of people who are sincere about what they say. But they are sincerely wrong. Read your Bible and see what God says about life and death. The devil will use sincerely wrong people to confuse others. He comes as an angel of light. But he comes to kill steal and destroy

[@morrislucero810]

I've heard people talk about a death experience and that they saw a light at the end of the tunnel. Or some other experience. That is not what the bible says. It says absent from the body present before the Lord. Satan wants people to believe there are many ways to get to heaven that way you won't make it. You can't change God's word to fit your life style . There is life after death but where you go depends on you. For God so loved the world he gave his son that you might have life. Read John 3:16

Nearly four years ago my wife died of ovarian cancer ! She vomitted fiercely , and then fell asleep and just stopped breathing ! Days after whilst she was in the funeral company morgue waiting to be cremated I felt someone pulling at the bed clothes violently trying to get in bed with me ! It terrified me and I started going to bed at 2 in the morning !!! A few days later I was woken up by the violent shaking of the bed ! After weeks after that I felt her plonk herself on the side of my single bed ! You cannot see anything but only feel her ! I stopped being scared and I greet her.. Now I feel a pressure on the bed clothes that suddenly disappears and other times she will lie down by my side ! Before all of this if someone had told me a similar story I would have told them to stop talking nonsense ! And when she comes she often bangs something like the light next to my bed to get my attention ! I know when it is going to happen before it happens and often I go cold ! I moved house from the house where she died but she is still comes and I welcome her ! I should also say I have her ashes in my bedroom ! She loved me and I adored her ! She was the most beautiful person I ever met inside and outside and I have never recovered from her death and never will ! We were married very happily for 35 years ! The happiest days of my life !!!

When I was pregnant with my 2nd child my Aunty who I was very close to & she couldn’t have children died at 50yrs from pancreatic cancer. I was an absolute mess. About a few days after her funeral on a cold rainy night while sleeping next to my husband I heard my name being called out. I looked up & at the end of my bed was my Aunty glowing & smiling dressed in a while gown & said to me don’t be afraid I’m finally happy now & not in pain. I had never seen her so happy cause she suffered bad depression. She was so beautiful & at peace.

[@marcetor8290]

So nice to see ! My '' dead'' family, friends or neighbors, and even a famous actor, talk to me in dreams, but my dad as your aunty, came to me the night of that day he died from a far away continent and like your aunt, called me and woke me up saying I'me searching for the girls, we are two sisters, His voice woke me up, I had gone to sleep to a friend house. My boy friend who died alone of pancreatic cancer also, he refused to see people, showed me in a dream every thing and even the scare of autophsie, with expression of scandal saying '' look at what they have done to me ! And also turned on 3 times the toy guitar of his son that I had kept, made come out once a painting from the wall when I was thinking of him looking at it, another time was a big decoratif plate, in the kitchen, and other signes, feeling a cold kiss on my wrist, and once all this stoped, I thought '' he has probably raised up to the light and love of God, and some flowers on top of a mirror, covering angels on the wall broght from my travels, felt down. I understood '' I'm with the angels''. The las time I saw him we had a conversation about beliefs, and he tolde me the story of some objects. Curiously, his family saved for me those objects. Besides the fact that four months before his death, I dremed it. He hide from me and every one his condition. Once it was confirmed he did not want to see me, during surgery, chimio I saw him in the coffin with a scarf and little white flowers, and at his family house, after obseques, I saw this scarf on silk hanging and said '' that's the one of the dream and the person said '' last time he came he left it there''... He moved in the dream and I said '' he is alive !'' and a voice said '' the internal proces of death are not seen from outside, they follow their course and are irreversible.'' A very grave voice, I saw the date of death of my mom, and se appeare to me in dreams showing me a drawing of an angel. And as she promised me, if there was something after death, she will make light sings and she did ! Very often.

I’m a retired geriatric nurse. LOVED it. Another nurse and myself were pulling up a patient in bed. This patient was religious. She wasn’t actively dying but we knew it wouldn’t be very long due to her condition. Suddenly the patient raised her arm and began to wave her hand at the corner of the ceiling and wall. When asked who she was waving at she said it was her husband and her mother. She had the biggest smile on her face. She was so excited to see them. Two days later she died. This story was told to her family and was repeated at her funeral. GOD BLESS HER SOUL

I am beginning to think that when we die, first it’s our physical body that dies. Our energies wind down and begin to disappear a little bit slowly but it will disappear because we maintain our energy by the food we eat. Without eating the energy will dissipate. I think that the near death experience and visuals are purely from our thoughts.

[@ramaraksha01]

@@ismailnyeyusof3520 Exactly - people desperately want to believe there is life after death & religions are more than happy to exploit these feelings - tell people what they want to hear "Everything will be great & wonderful, all your loved ones will be there, you will be so happy" But every time I asked what does one DO in Heaven - they run away, because they realize that Heaven sounds like one vast Retirement Home with billions just laying about, a useless existence for eternity What is shocking to me is NO ONE EVER ASKS - what about the loved ones that we leave behind? What if they are starving/suffering/homeless/jobless/sick etc? NOT ONE! The media, the educated, the moral & the philosopher are all complicit in pushing Heaven the Ponzi-scheme They know religions don't like the above question - so they make sure it is never asked!

I had a NDE when I was 13 and was in a terrible car accident that killed my grandparents. I went into shock and they lost me for a minute I recall standing on the sidewalk beside my grandfather watching the fireman scramble to rescue us. He told me some people were coming to greet us and shortley after I met my grandfather's deceased brother and sister who died as babies that I had never heard about. When I asked my Mom who they were she bursted in tears. How did you know that? I didn't Mom they came with great grandma and grandpa on the other side.

[@heatherlin7]

As a nurse of 30yrs, mostly in the ER, I’ve seen many people die. There is one thing I’ve noticed which fascinates me. In many instances before dying the person often asks for water. As though nothing else matters at that moment, just water. Mind you that most deaths I’ve witnessed have been traumatic and unexpected. So I’ve had young people, old people, all ask for water despite the chaos of this unexpected circumstance knowing they are dying. It always reminds me of Jesus on the cross, how he stated “I thirst”. With water being essential for life it is also very strangely ironic. It’s a powerful thing to be witness to.

Twenty three years ago, I woke at 4am to vivid dreams of my grandmother. I could smell her cooking, her jean nate' body colon, and her rose bushes that lined her drive and bloomed every summer. I could hear her deep laugh she used to use when pretending to be the big bad wolf and the creak of the carport swing, where she used to rock me for hours with my head in her lap and no words were necessary. It was so incredible, I got up, went to my computer, typed everything out and went back to bed. On my way to work the next morning, my aunt called to tell me my grandmother died at 4am. I knew that experience was her way of telling me one last time how much she loved me and I know I will see her again.

When my husband was dying of cancer. A family member who had been very controlling in our lives became even more interfering during his passing and while my husband lay there heavily sedated and in a Coma like sleep. This family member came in and was angry at me because I allowed people in to see my husband say there goodbye's and take pictures with him which really triggered them. An argument ensued between us until another family member came in with the intention of creating peace and the two of them left together, leaving me alone with my husband. After which time I burst into tears and said out loud "It wasn't supposed to be like this!" Mainly referring to his passing but also our lives in his final years of his life. Then to my shock and surprise my husband came out of that deep sedated sleep state long enough to say, "I know hunn, I'm sorry." That was the last thing that ever said. He slipped into a deeper coma and then passed away soon after.

The day my Grandfather passed away, I was standing at the foot of his bed when he suddenly sat up in his bed with his arms outstretched like he was reaching for me. The whole room 'Gasped" but I just stood there in awe and amazement, because he had the look of EUPHORIA on his face- I remember thinking he is not looking at me but right through me and then I froze with thought. My Great Grandmother is standing behind me, His mom came for him. My Mom layed him back down in the bed, she said she saw tears streaming down his face. Then he took his last breath. You see my Grandfather was orphaned during the 1918 flu. He lost his mother, father, sister, brother and Grandfather and grew up in an orphanage. I remember him showing me a picture of his Mom that he got from a cousin of his when he went to visit him when he was 1st DX with prostate cancer. I remember him telling him how much this picture meant, because he had forgotten what his mom looked like. I remember my 1st impression when he showed me the picture of his Mom which was: They didn't smile in picture back in the late 1800 and early 1900s. The day was Grandpop was buried I went to the picture of his mom (my Great Grandmother) to say... I know it was you who came for him, but I didn't get any words out, because again I was stunned with awe and amazement. She was smiling in the picture. A few days later, I had to make sure it wasn't a Mona Lisa effect and I walking back & forth, looking at this pic at every angle, but was confused not even a slight smile. Then all the sudden I heard a voice from the other room.. It was my Mom saying "She is not doing it anymore, I already checked" -My Mom saw her smile too. My Mom & I hugged and cried. It was a beautiful gift.

I have had a death experience and I say absolutely there is another dimension after death. My experience was quite different from the norm,no loved ones, no tunnel, no looking back. I became the light instantly, a light that was all love, joy and happiness. I often wondered afterwards where the bad guys went as there was no room for darkness in this dimension. Thelast thing I remembered from the earthly plane was the room erupting with activity, with doctors and nurses running, the clang of instrument sand the smells of medications being administered in the attempt to bring me back. I knew I had gone back to source, force or God and became not apart of but all that is like a drop of water in the ocean is no longer separate from the ocean, a complete lack of individuality. A highly blissful feeling. I now look forward to death knowing that is where I will be going and I carry an understanding in my heart of thefact that all is truly connected in away that has no allowance for separateness.

When he got sick, he was very stoic and did his best even when his body was failing him. My Dad was very upset and sad after we had to end Comet's suffering. So was I, naturally. Glimmer was a totally different personality, but no less loved. He was full of joy and miscief but a little frightened. Glim was a very intelligent dog, like he could read minds.

In 1984 at the age of 19, in the wake of being blindsided while on my motorcycle I had a NDE that included, like so many, a time out of body. I don’t know if I left my body upon the initial collision that rendered me unconscious or if it was after landing on the chin guard of my helmet after sailing 45’ as if launched from a cannon. There were no accounts of my heart being stopped for a specific time by EMT’s on the scene or during transport to the hospital. I did not witness any bright light or see any deceased family or friends, I did see and feel an increase in elevation as I looked down upon the scene from above. There was also a tremendous sense of detail - such as others have mentioned - I noticed a chip of paint missing and what appeared to be rust in one of the corners on the top of the ambulance. I saw this as I was ascending in a clear blue sky that eventually turned to black with what appeared to be stars all around, I could hear no sound and recall a tremendous sense of peace. I have no doubt that some are brought back from the brink by medical attention, in my case I believe it was a single thought. While in the glittering darkness, I began to hear voices and without feeling as if I was falling the black around me turned to a light gray and at this point off to the north I noticed a swirl of what looked like smoke rings. The view below changed and I could tell I was drifting toward the rings and once again I was surrounded by clear blue, felt as if I was leaving with no desire to return. At this point my experience became a little unusual - for years my Mom had a police scanner and whenever she’d hear an ambulance being called she’d be worried it was for someone in the family, whenever I heard her doing this I’d tell her that she shouldn’t have the thing if it was going to scare her every time it went off. This particular morning in May, it was for someone in the family. As I was drifting, moving on in peace, below I saw my body being loaded into the ambulance and next to the door stood my older brother and my Mom. The accident had happened just a couple miles from her home - the last of my experience was the thought “this is going to kill Mom” and then I felt and heard a tremendous THUD, suddenly I was looking up at the EMT’s as they loaded me into the ambulance. I’ve done my best to care for my Mom ever since and the NDE did something else, it instilled in me a deep inner need to “pay back” for my second chance. I’m a musician by trade and on a regular basis I work with others to help raise awareness and funds for humanitarian efforts while also promoting emerging artists thru a not-for-profit social enterprise called A4H (tm) Arts4Humanity. I know many others have this same desire following a NDE - it makes you realize what’s important and what isn’t and it’s a shame it takes something so drastic to increase the desire to better serve humanity.

My father passed when I was 21 and 11 months later my little sister died at the age of 18. Needless to say I was destroyed. I had a toddler and I lived across the country with my husband who was in the army. For a long time I didn’t feel I was in my body, my grief was so intense that I would cry myself to sleep and wake up sobbing. After about 6 months my sister came to me in a dream where I was buying something for her at a store even though in my dream I knew she was gone. I sat down in a chair with my head in my hands crying and saying I can’t do this without you when a hand was placed in my lap, when I looked up she was there and later I realized her mouth wasn’t moving she was talking to me telepathically. She told me she had no need for material things and that she was busy and she couldn’t keep coming back to check on me. We stood up and she lead me out a door that was bursting with sunshine onto a beach where the sun was sparkling in the sky and there was a beautiful soft rolling ocean. We were holding hands as she lead me to the water. Her hair was flowing and she was wearing a beautiful long flowing white ethereal dress and she had feathered large wing on her back that were so intricate with individual feathers. She lead me under the water where I realized I could breathe, as she shot out of the water her wings expanded and her head was tilted back and the water was dripping off her wings and in those droplets the colors were indescribable. As I watched her ascend to the heavens I felt the presence of Jesus and a feeling of all I can describe as Ecstasy shot from the tip of my toes all the way up my body to the top of my head and I exclaimed in a loud voice praise Jesus! I woke up like I had never been sleeping (wide awake)! Needless to say that his stuck with me through my whole life and was the catalyst to my healing, I never worried about her again, and in my heart, I know I will see her when it is my time to cross over.

[@WinyanStaz1]

I have seen my husband twice since he passed over and both times he did something beautiful to show me he was alright and having fun. In the first one I realized I was dreaming during the dream when he suddenly showed up where I was sitting at a table in a large room where people were dancing and there was a live band. He suddenly walked up to me out of the crowd and did the cute little dance moves he always did when he was asking me to get up to dance with him. I held out my hand and he held it as he helped me to my feet....put his arms around me and I laid my head on his shoulder....and woke up. The second time I was standing on the edge of a meadow and saw him riding and whooping and hollering with about a dozen other Braves as they were riding across the meadow...whooping and laughing. And I had to smile as he was always so proud on his ancestors Native Bloodline...and I woke up. However as I am a Lucid Dreamer (it just happens during sleeping I will become conscious I am Dreaming) I am sure I will see him again when I cross over. For one thing..he had to learn to play the flute to help him with his lungs and he had written a love song for me...and often played it for me. He always told me that when I die I am to listen for the flute song for he will be there to welcome me.

I had an out of body experience when I was in my mid 20s and it radically changed me. When I was 35 I met a woman at my church who was 55 struggling with various emotional and mental issues and she was looking for someone to confidentially share her worries and concerns with. She asked me if I could promise her respect and confidentiality. For 30 years I met with her over coffee on a monthly, and sometimes a weekly basis. The last time I saw her I was sitting by her bed, sipping coffee as she was unconscious. That night I was awakened by a bright light that entered my room and it seemed to me it was her saying goodby and thank you. In the morning it was confirmed that she had passed at that very time. I cannot explain these experiences, and have no loyalty to any explanations but I cannot deny these things happened.

This left me feeling reassured and helped me move on from the constant pain I was feeling of missing my son and how he could have been saved if he had not been taken from me after the birth and left in a nursery where the oxygen tank was empty when he needed it...

The only antidote to loss is you have to love someone more or love more somebodies. After this a place far more to heart's content. No exceptions, mistakes were expected, you are loved and there is nothing you can do to stop timeless love and forgiveness. After this we wonder, "What was I so worried about?" I am to intense and don't have enough love available to antidote losses. I tried not to have anything to lose for this hyper-sensitive reason. 30 years it took to write my thesis on the missing info, a fascinating adventure, the only thing I can take with me, understanding. The ax hangs over everything else. The true fellowship is everyone loses everything they ever choose to care for. After this, anyone you miss can be there, because time is an illusion. So we don't have to lose the people we love in reality. Everybody dies. We have to die or we are lifted by love's magic, the only 2 choices from here. and there is an assurance being lifted described the work. fascination for sure ...

If one wants to consider that death is actually a condition of the living before life or birth then that's also life after death. So therefore we can experience life after death but the question is can we experience life after death twice. Unless someone is reborn for a second time to tell the tale we can never know that answer but personally as an atheist I would bet the answer is no, we get one crack at it and that's that!

My family had been very hush hush about how I'll my grandmother was and kept her cancer a secret, so I didn't know what was going on or how bad it was. My grandmother was my person. She was the one that I was tied to the most. Even at my age and having outgrown her, I would still lay my head on her lap and fall asleep while watching tv. She was who I wanted to see at the conclusion of school days. Anyway, I was very sick. I got up to use bathroom at home (she lived five minutes away) and I was standing in hallway where bathroom was located in my parents home and then I wasn't. I spontaneously blacked out and fainted. I don't know how long I was out, because I don't remember the moment it happened but I remember the moment I was coming out of it and my mother calling my name in a panicked voice. For some reason, I knew that at the very same moment I fainted was the moment my grandmother died in her home located five minutes away.

A few days later, he whispered to me, “I need help getting across this river.” I said to him, “It’s not time. When it is, someone will come for you.” He replied, “ok,’ and seemed satisfied with my explanation. Later, he called out, “Paul, come and get me!

[@kathleenturner7138]

@@JeromePrometheus ...The short version. I was working in my backyard June 13, 2020. Unknown to me at the time, my father was dying in a nursing home. While pushing a wheelbarrow of gravel, I stopped for a moment to catch my breath and what I can only describe as pure joy passing through me. I could see it. Golden light. Next I recall a man standing under our maple tree. My backyard was stretched...but even at that moment I did not think that was strange. I never felt any fear or concern. At first I thought it might be my husband...his back was facing me. Next I recall a light coming in...just say “meh”... then my attention was brought back to the light because this time it was coming in more bright and it was absolutely incredible. I said to myself, “I wish I had a camera”. The light was white with hues of colors and misty yet had an amazing clarity and shimmer. It was as if a seam opened in our world and there was another world overlaid with this one. I watched an arm stretch out from the light and it touched with a sparkle effect the man behind his left shoulder and at the same time I felt the intense love on my left side too. A voice said to me using my heart and mind “I love him”. The love was so powerful I was crippled up in awe and beauty on my left side. I responded with, “I would never say that”. That love does not exist here in that intensity. It was parental in nature. The next thing I recall was looking at the light and seeing a more dense golden movement. I thought, “what is that” It was as if I moved by thought...next thing I recall was being in the center of a sphere of energy...similar to fine television static. There were three screens...one in front and two on each side. The side screens were blotted out and the front screen was a high definition movie that had my father walking towards a house in green grass. This was the first time I recognized my father. But his back was still facing me but there was also an essence of a memory...but not a memory i recall. Then my physical body was placing the wheelbarrow down on the patio...I felt a sensation like sand pouring into the top of my head and my physical vision was coming back in. I think I may have been outside my body. It was only when I was back in this physical reality that felt like something was off. Very strong deja vu. Anyways, I did submit my experience to the Shared Crossing Project. But that’s the gist of what happened. I may submit my experience to IANDS. Just so that it’s out there in detail for anyone to read. Thanks for your inquiry. I do love sharing my experience. I never stop thinking about it.

[@bestbry1]

This is intense! Could you just describe me this extra thing? What memories could you see? Yours or his?

[@kathleenturner7138]

@@bestbry1 ...I’m not sure. I often ask myself that same question. I was clearly watching my father walking towards the broad side of a house with thin wood siding painted yellowish white. The grass was green. I recognized him. I heard people laughing and a child giggling. I could not see them. But somehow I sensed it was a picnic or family gathering. I sense the child had been giggling as if someone was chasing the child...like in a game of tag. Sometime I think it was my fathers memory or life because I don’t recall that memory (other than the review). And of course my father was the person who had died. However, I was emotionally attached to the movie on the screen. Sometimes I wonder if it was my life review that was triggered. Perhaps I was the child. But the person I was watching was absolutely without a doubt the back side of my father. A younger version. I recognized him in that moment. Never once in this experience did I feel any fear. Not once did I even question what was happening. But I did think/query things like, “what are you doing over there?” and “what is that golden thing?”. Anytime I did this, I moved into that space instantly. Its also worth noting that I did not know it was a life review at the time. I didn’t know what had happened. When I regained my physical composure I sat down on the patio and kept asking myself what just happened? I remember my physical vision being blotted back in the same time I felt the sensation of sand being poured into the top of my head. I saw my husband building the retaining wall. My first confusion was, if my husband is building the wall (on opposite side of the yard) who did I see under the tree? I just sat there looking at the tree and saying to myself, something just happened...what happened? I felt heavy...gravity and a powerful sense of deja vu. After sitting there for a while...I thought maybe I was day dreaming. So I went back to work. I found out several hours later my father had died around the same time I had the experience. It was when I was sitting down thinking about my day when every detail of the experience came back to me. I am so grateful I was allowed to remember. I started researching my experience and read about the 360 life review...I was like wow!...that’s what it was. But it was a happy memory. But the experience itself...not once did I feel any fear. When the being made of light said to me “I love him”. My response, “I would never say that”. This is the only time I felt shame. I knew my thoughts were open and exposed. My souls was bare and was nothing hidden. This is probably the only time in my experience that I felt a disturbed. I was ashamed of myself for not loving like that. The being did not express anything but love. Since that experience, I have been reviewing much of my life. Many things I was not proud of (selfish moments or times I was condescending to others) and I cried everyday for about a year. But I realized I was only focusing on my negative moments and there were many good moments too. I do my best to be the best version of myself...but still people get “triggered” at times...even in simple benign conversation. I’m still a work in progress but I can never go back to the person I was. The experience changed my perspective. Thank you for taking the time to listen. I hope I didn’t ramble too long. 💕

Out of body experience I have had when I was giving birth to my daughter at 20 yrs old. I’d nearly died, I think. I came out of my body, floating above, saw my self on the operating table/birthing table, I saw entire room, the doctors and nurses frantically calling out my name. I continue to flow out to the hallway, the walls weren’t obstacles. I saw bright white light in the hall way, most amazing peaceful feeling overcame me. I floated down toward this light, the desire to go to it was immense. At that instance there appeared people old and young, they were saying to me that I must go back, it’s not my time yet. But I told them, without speaking, that I wanted to go with them. However, they insisted it’s not time yet and that I must return! They gently insisted. This white light felt so very good I really wanted to go with them. But of course they insisted that it’s not my time and I must return! Then I begun to flow back to the delivery theater, and I heard people loudly telling me to “come on “…….!” breathe! this order repeated several times. The next thing I came to I recall saying to them “I can’t, I can’t!” The doctors gentle but firmly pushed on my stomach with my contractions, I couldn’t help them…but somehow I’d given birth to my daughter! The doctors were congratulating me and saying how beautiful the baby was so on… This was my out of body, NDE, for me. These tales are real! Believe those who share their experiences. As these very educated doctors and the others tells here - we continue existing in other planes. We do not cease to exist. We go on as a different form.

I'd wish for this to be so. However surely we would lose our ability to think in our own learned languages in our old life? We are all born naked and without knowledge or learned language. Our brains are what manifest our ability to learn language and behaviours. We must be different to animals in a sense because there is no animal nearly as intelligent as humans in terms of spoken language and concepts. Animals do not fear death and are almost certainly completely unknowing of their own mortality. Indeed they may be able to identify death in the sense that they kill to eat or see the death of another of their kind, but they wouldn't be able to understand what death means and probably are confused or even unable to even try to understand what death is. Humans however are also still animals of a higher level. I don't think we are even close ourselves to understanding the full meaning of death. There is a good possibility even we don't really completely get what it actually might REALLY be. I fear death and hope for something conscious afterward personally. Although I'd be surprised it's anything light deceived in any known religion and its probably not the case we would retain our experiences and language etc. What that means I don't know. Death is scary for sure. Those who say it doesn't are just burying it deep and accepting it will happen but I don't think they are completely honest saying its not something they fear whatsoever.

@@matthewburns5292 yes, as far as our experience goes our physical brain needs to reach a certain level of physiological development (which exceeds the level of any other species on Earth) in order for our cognitive abilities to reach the point of self awareness (where we could understand deep abstract concepts like death). Having said that the mind that emerges from this physical brain is something distinct from the purely physical brain...these two things (physical phenomena and mental phenomena) correlate with each other as opposed to them being the same thing. And this correlation is SO sensitive! If you even slightly tamper with my physical brain my mind becomes incoherent gibberish. This is the part of NDE stories that's interesting, this extremely sensitive correlation between mind & brain becomes a bit Clark Kent like in vulnerable situations (NDEs) where you'd expect the correlation to be at its weakest. It almost suggests that there might be a “Marriage” of mind & body that goes through some sort of “Divorce” at death. And me saying this doesn't even take into account the "Possibility" of people confirming events that took place in which it was unequivocally impossible for their physical sense organs (ears/eyes) to have confirmed such things (like confirming something that happened in the waiting room, or confirming a conversation between two doctors at the recorded time of no brain activity)…IF I could be convinced of the validity of THOSE stories then as far as I'm concerned I'm totally sold on consciousness after death...but I'm still seeking data on those NDE claims (that is the gold standard of NDE "Proof"...but only IF I could be convinced of that part). Dropping down a level to the other lesser NDE arguments...I will definitely say that I'm rather intrigued that NDEs would just so happen to be a format that would actually fit a context OF your consciousness actually leaving your physical body and "Moving On" from it. It seems awfully curious, especially with me being a guy who could strongly meditate on something up until the moment that I fall asleep, yet I NEVER wind up dreaming about that thing! Instead the dream always winds up being some totally unrelated goofy nonsense. In addition I have had enough deep thoughts about theology to last 20 lifetimes…yet I have never had a single God dream, not even once. So it's strange to me that nearly dying should coincidentally result in a fake experience that actually resembles what dying could coherently be like. "The brain is dying! That is the experience that you go through when the brain is dying!!”…says the skeptic. But #1 that seems extremely ad hoc to me. And #2 who cares if the brain is dying...Why can’t I just get something like a mental firework show at brain death?? And since everyone's reporting how lucid and coherent the NDEs are, why not give me something like a recap of Michael Jordan's greatest moments during my brain death experience since I was such a huge Jordan fan?? Or why not let me relive my all time happiest moments in life, or my best love making experience, etc? It seems question begging why my “Brain closing credits” moment should resemble a “Brain moving on from my physical body” moment. One sweet experience to go out with a bang on, seems just as good as another sweet experience to go out on!! It’s curious why we consistently would be getting these “Fake Sweet Experiences" of pretending that our consciousness is moving on from our physical bodies after death. I also find it curious why DEATH should be an exhilarating experience in the first place. Jeez, if I ever had to make a list of terrible experiences I'd probably venture to say that medical death should make the list lol. It’s very curious that people are reporting their NDE experiences during medical death as being the most pleasurable experiences of their lives.

Spine-tingling because every time I think about these experiences my spine tingles from my neck all the way down my back while goose bumps well up on my arms…one even 25 yrs later. Yes Matthew, there really are people that know even “deep down” that life continues after bodily death. And once you have an experience, you will too. I pray it’s soon.

I told my son and he just laughed it off telling me I was stupid. He died of an accidental drug overdose on September 7 2020. The last thing I said said in the text was I loved him even though he was being fairly abusive in his text to me. I was going to respond on his rudeness but i decided to leave it with “I love you “.

There are some things to be said for materialism, but in general, I think you're right and also, that it's almost completely obvious that you're right. I think that, in the long run, organised religion has done about as much to promote materialism as the materialists themselves. That's because I think that religion has always been a mix of legitimate syncretism, mysticism and philosophy with social engineering and propaganda. Geopolitics, statecraft and metaphysics make for a confusing mixture. Then again, there are probably some advantages to having a simplified metaphysical framework that a group of people can all easily relate to and bond over.

There is a very simple explanation for this. Alzheimer’s is often known as type 3 diabetes. It can be caused from saturated fat interfering with glucose uptake to your brain. Saturated fat gums up the insulin receptors in your brain. Often right before you die, you stop eating and so you enter a fasted state. Your body will begin metabolizing fat and turning it into ketones which can bypass the insulin lock and key to enter your brain cells. It’s not evidence of an afterlife.

When her name was given I felt absolutely so very guilt for not visiting her earlier. I felt heat going through me because a waited too long to visit her. Then all of a sudden I felt a finger poking my right upper arm. There was no one near me. I closed my eyes and new she was letting me know it was okay. She was okay. Then there was the time when I was kneel in church praying for some who had passed 2 weeks earlier. She didn't consider me a friend but I thought I should pray for her. There was nobody around me when I felt a soild punch in my arm. I thought okay she definitely doesn't want me to pray for her. I left. When I was 15 my sister and I were in bed talking about our baby sister who pass away 4 years earlier. The lights were off and only the kitchen light was on so the could see clearly in the dark. As were talking about her, we stopped and turned to the open door. We could hear the sound of her little shoes running down the hall and right into our room. We both saw the dark tiny shape of our baby sister running into our room and running back and forth at the foot of our beds. We were both so frightened we pulled the covers over our heads and finally fell asleep. 2001 I lost the love of my life to prostate cancer. That night when I laid in bed grieving. I heard and felt his side of the bed go down like when he'd sit on the bed. I was to frightened to move or look. I knew he knew I loved him, so I just stayed quiet and fell asleep knowing he was still with me. Our souls continue to exist and they are around us. I take comfort in that.

Hi, great discussion. I’m a nurse with 25yrs frontline. I have seen and experienced far too many coincidences for it whatever, it is to not be real. More recently my own personal experience after contracting covid on the job. To cut a long story short I have had two ITU admissions the 2nd of which was far worse. I was ventilated then had a STEMI heart attack. All I can say is I know when I left my body. There was no light it was dark speckled with gold. I met a lady who I do not know, I asked her what I should do, she said I must decide. My point is my consciousness was still there, I remember thinking how can I still be thinking? How can I still be here? I was pain free and calm. I was then put into a medically induced coma for 3 weeks. That’s another story! ITU delirium was great! I can however tell you the both experiences were totally different. It was touch and go, my family were told prepare for the worst. I heard my sons breaking down and my sisters and mum. I heard them, I heard the drs. I decided to fight for my kids took everything I had to get back. I did it! then all the pain came back, 12months on I’m still in pain……lol……being a qualified nurse I have trained and learned from proven science however, this happened to me I’m still learning and remembering things from my experience. I’ve also had a crisis ? Spirit? Call to me whilst I was hoovering to take care of my dad, [this was like 30yrs prior to my own experience] around that time his partner passed away.

Oh it must be heart breaking. I hope you find peace in your memories you had with him. I want you to know there is a God. We are his children. We are all brothers and sisters. He has a plan for us.

We each have a spirit that came down on earth to gain a body and learn as much as we can about good things and our Savior. We knew our ancestors before we came to earth. There is a curtain that closes our mind from our pre earth life so we can concentrate on this part of our journey. Some are given a gift to sense, see or even feel those that have passed on. It happens to comfort us and give us hope of seeing them again. Do not be afraid of those experiences! Enjoy and treasure those moments knowing that they are ok.

In the time leading toward my mother’s passing we were together in her hospital room. As we spoke, she turned to look at the end of the bed and slightly to the left. She listened, nodded and said ‘not yet dear’. She listened more and said, ‘yes, alright’. At the time I was taken aback. I looked around expecting to see another person. Her grandchildren were coming to see her in a couple of days. Although see was exhausted, weak and weary, when they arrived, she went outside in a wheelchair with them and lovely pictures were taken. After that, palliative care was started and she was ready to go. I now believe she was visited by a deceased loved one looking to take her hand and guide her through death. She went after she said her good byes. Thank you for this informative talk. It explains what happened in that moment. It was profound.

I remember hearing, second hand, of a family friend "Dee-Dee" who was on her last couple of days. A young man named Stephen, who was close to the family himself, was there with her. Apparently she had tripped or fallen or something, and he kind of freaked out. He sort of panicked and half-yelled "Dee-Dee are you all right?" "Don't yell, Stephen", she apparently said, in full clear voice despite otherwise having been mostly incoherent for days. I gather her tone was kind of annoyed. That was TOTALLY her. She wanted things to be in order and make sense and not be over-dramatic. Apparently she was gone within a day or two. And for some reason I felt compelled to call, despite not having talked to anyone in the house for some years. As a I recall, her daughter said "we just lost mom yesterday".

At 1.04 - Clairaudience. I felt this. When I was in labour with my son, the ward was full and I wasn't registered for delivery and couldn't have any pain relief. I was like this for 72 hours moving from ward to ward and my husband jokes that it was the most silent I've ever been but my sister in law passed away when I was pregnant and I missed all of the "Baby breathing" classes due to the funeral and taking care of my family, and whilst in labour I could her a man with a Jamaican accent talking me through what to do and I was listening so intently, I can't explain it. Later that evening, I went into theatre because of complications and I haemorrhaged losing litres of blood. I'm lucky that I'm still here, but that whole period was definitely a "there is more to life" than I ever thought before.

When I was a teenager my friend appeared at the foot of my bed told me he was leaving and wanted me to know he loved me. I found out two days later he did die. I've had many experiences perhaps several hundred where people leaving come to talk to me. Yes often I agree with much of what's being said as in most situations is where there has been tragic deaths, I've always thought its unfinished business something the spirit wants others to know. I have a problem where often in serious road accidents I might be going along the road and people are waving at me there are lots of spirits. I don't choose to be psychic I don't have a good scientific explanation. The mind is more powerful than we know, definitely in my world consciousness does exist. Perhaps it's always been like this always. Good that people are open about this now talking openly.

You have these experiences because you are a natural Medium! You have this gift because in one of yours lives or perhaps many you decided to learn how to do it . This happens in much the same way as born gifted artists or mathematicians . They have worked at it in previous lives. Go and see a really good Medium. Tell her nothing about yourself and see what she can tell you about yourself and then see if you can read her! She could give you invaluable help in bringing out your gift so you could help others. Everyone can learn to become psychic to a greater or lesser extent. I found to my astonishment that I could begin to see and feel things myself but born Mediums are particularly good at this! It is a wonderful ability to have! You could do a lot of good in the world and have a very interesting life as a result!

[@tracyavent-costanza346]

@angela generally my impression of those who are somehow endowed with these gifts is that they often do not especially seek to have them. Rather something more akin to "the gift chooses them". Sometimes it manfests itself in ways that are initially disturbing (for example if you have vivid dreams or waking ideations, it can interfere with sleep or relaxation). So "gifts" often also come at a price. Not everyone wants to pay that price. I can understand those who do not, as they are probably more concered with the mundane aspects of life (job, family responsibility, religious conflicts...). One thing I cannot claim to know all that well is "what happens if you reject the gift" or otherwise try to ignore it. I gather you more or less accept or embrace yours, but probably sometimes it can still be distracting. Just figuring out how to "interpret" what you pick up, is not that simple either. If the message seems to be "for someone specific" (as I gather a lot of them are) then you also are sort of shouldered with having to figure out whom it is for, and maybe even convince them to listen to you. As @frances lee pointed out, you need not face this gift alone and it is prudent to seek a larger community to help you to handle it. One such organization is called IANDS but I cannot profess extensive direct experience with it. I would roughly analogize this kind of gift as "a fancy antenna to pick up radio stations". Some people just naturally seem to have better antennas than others, but the downside is "tuning": you might be picking up so many messages that it is hard to sort them out or quiet them down when you need to concentrate on something more mundane. In any case, you appear to have a substantial gift. As I suggested to others on this OP thread, you could use it to heal people who suffer. Just like any other healing practice, there is a learning curve and everyone you attempt to minister to, is different. I suspect you already know some of this stuff. Do not doubt you know it. Do not doubt you have a gift. The HARD PART is figuring out how to use it.

[@dr.anantchaudri1118]

h In all dictionaries nDe is one and only term meaning DEATH NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCE , NDE is a brilliantly coined term in elementary English, NDE stands for a near death experience. of a person close to death, but not death. . N = refers to closeness to something or someone. E = experience - a collection of events and activities performed from which.one can gather knowledge, opinions and skill D = Death, is a total cessation of all living life. Combined with N and E, near DEATH experience NDE is a terrifying situation near DEATH , a dreadful extremely horrifying disaster next DEATH next to death, but NOT DEATH. . All three alphabets N D E and e together, make a brilliantly conceived word in the English language in 3 alphabets in simple terms. The difference separating NEAR DEATH from DEATH is a very thin line, of a living being to a dead individual. NDE’s occur unexpectedly, unpredictably, suddenly, a dangerous situation, fearing almost certain death . NDE - a single person’s experiences, cannot be shared, happens suddenly, unstoppable, unescapable, non treatable; no need of a doctor, no reference to religion or science. Body function can carry on even if the person has brain death, or in coma or on a ventilator. He is alive, as long as heart keeps beating, When the heart and brain stop functioning, life ends, the person is declared DEAD. Near DEATH a experience of human attack. Man with gun random shooting of people in mosque. All run for their lives towards the exit a true near DEATH experience Near DEATH experience of air travel. Mid air, Huge bang occurs. Captain announces the problem. Passengers panic, have a near DEATH experience. Pilots lose control., the vertical stabilizer has separated. Captain declares emergency. Pilots manage to land plane. All breathe a sigh off relief - saved from a true horryfing terrifying situation, an a near DEATH experience, Near DEATH experience of sea disasters. Luxury liner Titanic hits iceberg. Breaks into two. No lights, total darkness 1500 passengers still on board facing certain DEATH, Few motor boats in the pitch darkness knowing this to be their final journey on earth. Near DEATH experience of nature’s fury. Lightning is a beautiful display in nature at the same time the most dangerous. Hot as the sun. Speed of a jet plane. Can be deadly.

I had a near death experience when I was 18 (I am now 85). When I began to recollect the episode and mentioned it to the doctor who had been present, he had me admitted to a psychiatric ward where I remainder for about three months. When the doctors came for their daily check up, they asked me if I still believed what I told them to which I said yes. After awhile I realized that I would not be "released" from the psychiatric ward until I changed my mind, so I decided to say that it was probably a bad dream. Shortly thereafter was discharged. Interesting experience to say the least. If it happened now that I am 85, I would handle it differently and would not have to spend any time in a closed ward…….

My NDE was in 1968 during a 2nd bout with the Hong Kong flu, I was 13. I saw my mom walk away from my bed as she tapped the thermometer while exclaiming, “106, this can’t be right.” She continued out of the room walking up 2 stairs to the next room. All this as I hovered over her and watched. I next saw this orb of unbelievable light and was racing towards it head 1st in a void of blackness. 3 beings were now beside me, the 1 closes to my head said as we faced one another, “it is not your time, you have a long life to live,” I stared back to see this beautiful smile peer back. The head of the 2nd entity was at my waist. It was the 3rd who was below what would be my feet that I felt held the most against the ensuing darkness. I then found myself in the light with no one near. My mind exploded with all knowledge, past, future, science, history, it was everything and unbelievably so. I was overwhelmed with happiness to finally see and I was no longer a child. I then awoke to a new day … I had survived. I still held the untold amount of information upon awakening, but it was rapidly fading away and I knew I wouldn’t be able to retain it. In time and shortly so I couldn’t hold much of any of what had filled my thoughts while in the light. I though can never forget what is told and afterwards spent a reckless life believing I couldn’t die … but. So now I’ve lost all friends, some calling me cursed in my now later years. I’ve also feel that maybe I never returned to where I left before floating above my mother. What a strange life indeed, to always wonder when a long life ends and for what purpose I was meant to be returned for.

My son and wife had passed away. It had been about 5 years and I got remarried. I was getting ready to go to weekend retreat the next day with men to just get ministered to for things we deal with like death. I fell asleep that night and had the most realistic dream I’ve ever had. My son appeared to me sitting down and I greeted him with a hug and kiss and asked him how he was. He told me he was going to school learning about these huge trees. He had a writing pad and showed me that these trees were very tall but had a very shallow root system that branched out and they joined each other and fed and supported each other. They could not stand alone. He was wearing a red shirt and his face was glowing. He said the trees were like a family that couldn’t get along without each other. We were talking and I jolted awake and awoke my wife. I was so excited that Cory boy had paid me a visit and he was in school and told her about his trees he was studying in great detail. She probably thought I was nuts. I left on the trip the next morning still excited and told the group I was with about dream. How realistic and thought my son paid me a visit. The retreat was intense and we all were pretty tight at the end. We were all getting ready to leave and the leader was from Chicago. We were in Texas. I never mentioned anything about my dream to anyone other than my riding companions, 4 guys. The leader had us circle up and put our arms on each other’s shoulders. He then said,”Do you guys know about the redwood trees. They are huge and very tall but have shallow root structures. The support and nourish each other and cannot stand alone without each other. Just like you men. You need each other.” Almost word for word what my son told me! By that time my friends were in tears and I couldn’t contain myself. We just looked at each other. The leader continued on and we finished up without a word. I told my wife when I got home and she was in shock. A week later we had a meeting with all the guys on the trip and their wives. I shared my story and told them what happened. Is there life after death? What do you think?

Randy benton Good Story! Very profound! I personally don’t believe in coincidences! I’ve heard that Spirits can visit us in our dreams! Also with electric energy. Lights going on or off. Strange mechanical failures or electrical failures. This is their way of communicating with us. How wonderful that you got to see your son again and hug him and talk with him! I believe he visited you to tell you he’s okay! And he’s waiting for you on the other side. You will see him again and reunite. I believe this very much now. And I’m a former Atheist. Until recently I believed in nothing that I couldn’t see with my own eyes. My mother died from a stroke a year ago. I believe she visited me already twice with some signs. She was telling me she is okay. I expect to see her again and all my relatives again on the other side. My two uncles and grandparents who I still miss very much. Thanks for sharing your story. You can believe or disbelieve whatever you like. I know what I believe. Oh yeah, I told you I don’t believe in coincidences, right? Well, Doris Day sadly died the other day at the ripe old age of 97. She was actually in good health but caught pneumonia and passed away. She passed away after Mother’s Day. So did my mother a year ago! I cried when I heard the news because my mother was exactly like her and she always reminded me of her. So to me this is no coincidence but another sign or signal. That’s how I see it. No way she died on the same day by happenstance. Statistically impossible!

He came to you to let you know this. He is all around you if you just learn to be present in the moment, you will feel him. I take lecithin when I want to dream now and it enables me to get visits from my lost friends and loved ones. I don’t do it all the time but when I feel a longing or start thinking about them, I will induce a deep dream state. We have so much to learn as a western society and I believe a transformational shift is coming. The Muslims say God says there are 70 veils between you to me but there are none between me to you. Those veils of anger, resentment, disappointments, etc are all self imposed and need to be taken down one by one. All negative emotions are in our heads and hearts and self made.

When I was three years old I was in the hospital with pneumonia. I can still remember the ward I was in vividly. The ceiling was very high. I have this memory of looking down from a great height, as it seemed to me, onto the ward. This was in 1944. It was a sunny day and I could see beautiful green leaves on the trees outside. There were a few soldiers visiting, as I assume, were their children. I did get better, I know that because I am now 80 and still alive. When I was a baby my mother would lay me on the settee. I told my mother a year or so before she passed away, that I could remember that settee very well. It was covered in a beautiful blue material which I now know it was velvet. In I used to run my hand over it just to feel the softness. My mother asked me in surprise, You remember that? I believe in ghosts. Why? Because there is one in my house. I love it when it appears. It isn't frightening. It isn't a human. It's a cat. My late wife didn't believe me until one night, as I was watching TV, it appeared sat down by the patio door curtains. My wife had her head in a book and I said to her, What's that by the curtain? She looked and said it's a black cat. Now do you believe me, Margaret? She did.

architecture of that period and especially prior in europe, tended to have high interior ceilings. I gather for one thing, that such design elements tended to make interiors somewhat less affected by temperature extremes and possibly also humidity variants. Of course it also made painting of interiors, a lot more complicated which in turn may have driven the popularity of wall paper (sometimes I gather which was even used on ceilings).

My mother on her death bed had lost the ability that speak except to say yes yes or no no, I went back into her and prayed for her I was sitting nearby holding her hand quietly then I realised I hadn’t given her a chance to pray I said that to her and she prayed a blessing over me in perfect English sentences and I had thought at the time she had prayed from her Spirit.

Even if not personally known or remembered by them who were seeing the figure or even conversing with it. Usually "seen" by them who were making a transition but not always limited to that. Sometimes others present at the time, also observed something. The details vary. Obviously if someone ELSE also saw it, we cannot call that a "hallucination".

Well death is just a state of being. Just like when before you were born. You don't experience anything about billion of years in time before you were born, It's just feel instantaneous for you.

My dad came to live with me as he was dying. When hospice was needed, I stayed next to him much of the time. Rarely slept, ate or bathed. My dad saw my mom a few times towards the very end of his life and would ask me to get his "britches" (pants) so he could go to "ma" (mom...his wife...he always called her "ma" or "mutta"). He talked with mom a few times with me in the room. He didn't seem to be in the room with me in some way during those times. Other times, he was just the dad I knew with sense of humor even about dying. My dad's little dog who ALWAYS lay on him, ran and hid under his hospice bed, one time. He is not a scared dog. There was no one here to frighten him. I won't go on because I could write a book and might do that. My dad saw my mom who died almost exactly 2 years apart. (mom on the 14th of that month, dad on the 10th of that same month).

I died of heart disease in 1989 when I was a teenager and not sure for how long. I remembered that I happened to woke up and stand on the side of my body. As I turned my head and look at my body, it looked so old to me. It's like looking at a 40 plus year old man. Maybe I was a child seeing the different with age. Anyway, The light came down and I began to float through it. And at the end, I walked on something like a ground and it was so vivid. Everything felt so alive. It looks like what the earth looked like million of years ago. It was like a young earth. I saw my grandmother and I hugged her. She then told me that it's not your time and you need to go back.

In the 80s my father laying in the bed with my mother watching tv It was around 8 pm, next to the bed they had a pile of cassette tapes under the table. And suddenly there was that sound you hear when cassettes tower fall over and my mother says the cassettes just fell, but when my father looked at them they were in place and a few minutes later the same sound but it turned out that the cassettes are fine. They couldn't understand why they hear this sound but cassettes are in place. After about 2 hours a doorbell rings, and when my father opened the door, it turned out that a postman came with a telegram in which it was written that his brother died 2 hours ago.

My grandfather came to see me on a sunday. Usually hes pretty grumpy but I loved him for his transparancy and just for being authentic. Anyway....he was really cheerful and was playing with my children and happily bouncing them on his knee We had fish and chips.....he said it was the best meal he had in ages....he never says that. He went home. The next day i fell asleep in the exact seat he was in that day. Had a vivid dream a pure white space two old fashioned chairs with woven backs and detailed legs. His belated wife of 35 to 40 years...and a lady he met afterwards that he also adored. Both just sat there together smiling. No words spoken. I woke up thought it was odd. The week commenced....he usually called most days. I didnt hear anything. The following week I started to worry and called his phone and had been to his house a few times too. Nothing. I knew something was wrong. His health has declined rapidly since the day he spent with me. He had some kind of toxic shock where chemicals went into his brain just days after he was with me and perfectly fine. I spent the day with him....late that night 2am - 3am a sliver of light like a door opening appeared in the room and spooked me. As if something was checking up on him. I caught covid off him so couldnt go back. He died 2 days later peacefully. It was all as if it were by design. He had the best day happy with me. He had three daughters and always wanted a son. Theres more than one boy in the family but he was always so proud of me oddly out of everyone. His passing was all designed in a way to tribute his last day with me. There was certainly supernatural things happening. He since visited me.....i thought it was demonic...but not sure. But I do think that the good ones go to heaven so really we arent supposed to be visited by them.....they just greet us when we pass !

I don't think I ever had an NDE, but in the 90's, I was hit by a car while crossing the road, the force of the crash pushed me against the bonnet of the vehicle , and at that point it was like someone turned off one of those transistors TV, when all was left was a little white dot, that slowly disappeared in the distance. Pretty sure I remember seeing my Grandfather who passed away months before, who gently pushed me back in to this world. I woke up on the cold pavement, and a policeman ( Which I never got to thank ), was placing his own jacket under my head to support it.

Like I read it somewhere.., 'I don’t care what happens to me when I’m dead. Even if it’s an eternal dreamless sleep. What I’m afraid of is life. Life can be/is fucking scary. Especially when you’re like me and constantly thinking over existential shit like “are we just biological machines?”, “is everything predestined?”, “is everything just random and meaningless?” and “wtf is the point of it all?”. Honestly, I did go through the “death phase” recently, and it fucking terrified me, but now I’m realizing life is shittier. No matter who you are or where you are, life is gonna be shit at certain points regardless. And the only solution anyone can offer you is “don’t think about it, just distract yourself”. Even when it feels like your brain is eating itself... And the fact that the world we’ve built is really harsh makes it even worse. Your born and you’re constantly being fed with statements like “you can do whatever you want”, making you live in this unrealistic fantasy and made-up dream only to have it crushed more and more with age and reality. And it doesn’t help when all of children’s media is just awesome shit that further fuels these unrealistic aspirations. Seriously, why the fuck would I want to grow up and face reality, which has been terrible so far, and avoid everything that made me escape it? Video Games and movies are so much fucking better... This is the mindset of the millennial generation (which includes me). All of it would be fine though, if only humans could reach farther than their egos. To look at the stars and wonder. But we don’t. I’d say about 10% of us are actually doing something for the betterment of mankind and and our surroundings. Rest of us are assholes doing it for money, fame, selfishness and sometimes just plain ol’ hatred and evil. How much money, resources, research and time has gone into making fortnite, one of the most used things today? Yet, does anyone give nearly as much of a fuck on how we could all go extinct at any moment, and there are people working really hard trying to minimize those chances by making us a multi-planetary-species? No. Instead, we’re more worried about Kim Kardashian’s ass. So what you’re left with after knowing all of this, is to try as hard as you can to enjoy the limited time you have left. To decrease the amount of regrets you’re gonna have on your deathbed. But the fact that no matter how hard you try and no matter how much time you’re putting in, it’s all based on luck, makes you wonder if it’s even worth the trouble... And here is where most of cling on to faith like a life raft. Especially those who don’t even get a chance at life. Children dying; people suffering in war, poverty and bad economies and those with just cruel planned out lives. Hoping so much that there’s something more to this... But for those like me, who just can’t deceive ourselves with wishful thinking, no matter how hard we try, we become miserable, nihilistic and (personally) suicidal. I’m an agnostic at heart. I don’t think anyone can possibly know what awaits us after death, if we were created by something, if the universe has a meaning to it, etc., but what I BELIEVE is based on scientific logic; I just can’t make myself believe in anything else, trust me, I’ve tried. Which tells me this is the only existence we’ll come to know of, that we are very small and practically meaningless to the universe and that, if we don’t get our act together, we will most likely destroy ourselves. If there is anything I could believe in, without being skeptical about it, it would probably be that all of it, is just a simulation, or something similar. So far, religion has proven to be correct once, from what I know. And it’s when Buddhism stated it’s first rule: Existence is suffering.' 🤔
