Does anyone else think we might be delusional and will never experience our own death. Sometimes i wonder if i died and death was simply waking up and saying " i just had the weirdest dream".
-------------------- I'm addicted to coke, weed, booze, ludes and speed. Not LSD, you can't get addicted to LSD, it was built by scientists. I ain't got no demons that gonna get woke. In erowid we trust. Just take your damn pills and don't ask any questions, you'll be fine.

Sometimes I think we incarnate specifically to experience death again, but in order to come back we have to forget, so we become scared even though deep down we know there is nothing to feel.

I'm sorry, I need to brush my teeth after puking so much. I get to die, only to forget and come back? That's pretty terrible. Not as bad as forgetting everything that made me who I am to bath in the light of god or whatever, but still.
That is a very extreme reaction. Sorry my post made you feel that way.
I personally find it beautiful in a sad/bittersweet but poetic kinda way.
Kind of like this excerpt from a poem by Rumi -
This place is a dream Only a sleeper considers it real The death comes, like dawn And you wake up laughing At what you thought was your grief

I think being dead is very similar to what you experienced before you were born.

Has anyone noticed that most psychonauts tend to believe in a life after death?

I mean guess people on either side of this arguement are eager to find an answer. The truth is, the answer is probably neither. Its probably so damn simple yet abstract that it couldnt be put into english
I guess what I am trying to poke at here is that I dont think that we are/were ever alive, and I don't think that we will die. I think that there only has been one this whole time. Although we percieve there to be a shift in conciousness, I think there only one was state to begin with

The entire idea of life after death is metaphysical as there is no evidence other than personal experience.
In nature when things die they are decomposed back into the ecosystem, what makes humans any different?
We have a soul? No. We have a conscience. Animals are conscious, a worm is aware when it's been poked but it doesn't have a conscience and that's the only difference in mentality.
Again, what's so special about a human that would mean we skip out on the laws of nature?

We are not energy, if we were we'd act the same way as an atom does on the subatomic scale. We are made up of matter that decomposes releasing it's energy back into the ecosystem from whence it came.

I think we have a soul, a mortal soul. Its a christian and believer prejudice to assume the soul must be immortal. Many things have a soul or spirit. The spirit of my computer dies every time I unplug it. The spirit of the law exists beyond the letter of the law. The human spirit grows and dies along with the human body.
I very much believe my soul is a function of my memories. It doesn't matter what part of me continues on after death... if my memories are not there then I am not there. If I have Alzheimer my soul starts to die before my body. I have witnessed my daughter's soul grow as her body and memories grow. She is far more soulful now than when she was born.
When the water breaks, the wave is crest and when it collapses the water is conserved, but the spirit of the wave is gone forever.

I believe there is an afterlife. And I also I believe I can't be saved and i'm going to hell. I'm too far gone to turn back.

If the bible is true, then Satan is certainly the good deity. Heaven is a prison for the flock. Lucifer is a lover of freedom.

Its not edgy, but it is cool. When read without prejudice the bible is a story of a universal dictator, killer and oppressor. Satan respects life and respects freedom. I gladly eat of the tree of knowledge. I reserve the right to choose for myself what is right and what is wrong.

people who think there's an afterlife are stupid lol.
yeah your atoms will continues to exist but your self,your conscience and your memory,everything you experienced will be gone for ever lol.
but if you write your thoughts down, and they are kept for centuries , people from another era will be able to read your thoughts and the substance of your conscience. now that is far out my friend.

I'm talking about the mainstream american versions. NKJ, NIV, etc. Are you reading the Jefferson Bible? That is probably the only version I can get down with.
