Ego-Death.
Complete oneness, and connection with everything. Been there.
It would be reassuring to think that we could all stay there forever one day.
But to be aware at the same time.
Your friends, your family, your enemies, your dead pets, aliens.
All united, remembering each others lives, weeping over the misunderstandings, and laughing at the stupidity of it all.

Knowledge is Power - Foucault

Only it is not necessarily saying that when you have knowledge, then you have power through posessing said knowledge...

but when something/someone imparts 'knowledge' then we ought to think who is gaining power through this knowledge imparted?

Think: Nazi and apartheid propaganda, newspapers telling stories of the war on terrorism...

I am kind of agnostic because I'm not sure what I believe in but I used to be Catholic. I hate the idea of reincarnation although it is probably possible.

There is this documentary called "The Day I Died". There is a strong NDE (Near Death Experience) case of a woman named Pamela Anderson. She was "clinically" dead with her blood drained out of her body, heart beat and breathing stopped, no brain activity as they were sawing in to her brain, eyes closed, yet she was able to recall what happened. She even described the tool and what it looked like. It stumped the doctors because she hasn't seen the tools. Many skeptics and scientists tried to debunk this but it is merely their theories and heck, they weren't even in the room to witness this.


I am not a believer of most of these cases but this one I do believe. Many of the others I am skeptical of. Anyways, scientists say if consciousness does exist, their theory is that there are types of smaller energies that exist within the micro tubules of the brain and disperse some how when the body dies. That in essence would be our consciousness,mind, or soul...whatever you want to call it.

With that in consideration, our mind is very powerful. We can make whatever we want a reality living in our own crazy world. We dream crazy things, we perceive what we want.

So what's to come of this? I'd like to believe our consciousness/mind/soul exists outside the body and heaven is a state of mind. We live in our own perception of heaven with limitless things to do in a state of happiness, peace, and love. Of course, if you're just an angry person full of hate it might be your own hell. Anyways, basically I guess it's all in our heads and we have the ability to interact with other souls or consciousness.
In my "heaven":
time would not exist so therefore we can't get bored. we may be naive
doing the funnest things we won't get tired of
there will be trillions of different things to do such as explore dimensions and cosmos
we experience things through other people and can learn
I can see what it's like to live through a bird or another person
I can create things in simulation
I can haunt if I want to
I can sleep for eons in unconsciousness and wake up when I want (this could make Atheists happy)
I could spend time with loved ones when I want

All I want is to be happy, always be who I am, and be with my loved ones. That is why reincarnation isn't for me...lol I don't know anyone that would love to be reincarnated unless their life sucks or was cut so short.

This could all be just wishful thinking but it's something I'd like to believe. I'd rather it be this or NOTHING. I wouldn't mind it being nothing if life was long and fulfilling...
