I'm so morbidly (ba dum tss) curious to know what happens after we die that I'm willing to die "prematurely" just to find out

I'm sick of religions made by greedy bastards preaching something nobody can ever know it's true, the mind can play tricks

I wanna know everything there is to know, if life really was formed right after the big bang, why did we grew a consciousness and what exactly is the singularity of a black hole

I'd like to know too and I used to hope we would find out all this stuff when we die but then- why would we? Don't you need a brain to understand all that stuff? Guess it depends on what you believe but- if we simply don't exist when we die, we won't be getting any answers. The good thing of course will be that we won't have anymore questions either.

If it turns out you exist in some form after death, there's no guarantee that you will have any new knowledge about our existence. If there's no existence after death that's a dead end (ba dum tss). Seems like a bad bet if you're doing it for those reasons

I believe in reincarnation, you have similar personality to this one once you reincarnate.

 

[movinout17]

you have similar personality to this one once you reincarnate.

That would suck

 

[movinout17]

What makes you say that our personality will be similar? Isn't our personality a product of our bodies, genes and experience? Do our "souls" have some kind of personality type?

People reincarnate in to similar personalities, looks and with families/relatives. Your soul does not have a personality but it contain past life lessons and personalities so that applies when you're born.

Nearly 10 billion years separate the bing bang from life on earth... Probably at least 5 billion before any (organic ) life anywhere.

A singularity is a collapsed star. At a certain mass, roughly 3x the sun, when it dies (when fusion ends) it's own gravity pulls it's mass into a single point in space.

Consciousness is a consequence of neuronal activity . Presumably when neurons stop firing, consciousness ceases. So, once dead, there's no you left to find out that there's no you left.

Incidentally, how did Kundalini ruin your life?

Although I benefited from the normal benefits of awakening like increased energy and ecstasy, I swap from ecstasy to paranoia/fear all the time. Awakening has also resulted in me becoming psychotic at times due to lack of sleep and just how stimulating the energy is. Kundalini if awakened from trauma like in my case also has some other nasty symptoms that can damage both your brain and body if you don't have a teacher to guide you.

Thank you, interesting, I admire you for trying to heal yourself that way.
