Death and the afterlife

[jarik]

I would be curious to know what's after death, it's a question I've been asking myself for a long time and I can't give myself a precise answer. It would be nice if someone had ideas to give me or knew the answer

I very strongly believe death to simply be the absence of everything, it's nothing more than an dreamless and eternal sleep where all is finally forgotten about. Death is finally the end to suffering in this meaningless and undesirable existence which is all that comforts me, all I wish for is to be unconscious for all eternity, for me the only relief could ever lie in the peace that only death can bring.

Nobody knows ;).

We can come up with different theories, but at the end of the day does it matter?
We will all find out what is on the other side sooner or later.

People (including me) approach the afterlife in an emotional way.
We create theories that we want to be true. Or quite the opposite. We create scenarios that make us anxious.
I think what we want or don't want doesn't matter. Nobody asks us whether we like it or not.

We were born on this planet and no one gave us an instruction manual. We had to create it ourselves.

Of course it's okay to theorize, because that's what we have brains for.
But we have very limited information regarding the death.
We only know what is happening to our biological body
It is not enough.

If I had to guess, I think there is an Absolute that does not directly intervene in the world.
Maybe there is also some form of reincarnation.
But this is just a theory that I can't support with any reasonable arguments ;).

As far as I know, nobody came back from the afterlife to tell us!

My educated guess is that you will simply cease to exist, just like you didn't exist before you were conceived.
