Death is ego-killing intensity, but the 'Ground Consciousness' is Present to us in each moment as the background and source of ego-consciousness. I tend to think there is a radical 'figure-ground shift' and as the ego dies away, the Great Moment of Realization - the dawning of the Clear Light - is a matter of intensity, NOT duration. Eternity is an intense moment of the ego slipping blissfully (if one is prepared) into eternity as "the dewdrop slips into the Shining Sea" in the words of poet Edwin Arnold in 'The Light of Asia.'
The should be a liberating, relieving moment of familiarity, of intimacy with THAT which finally overwhelms us. 'IT' has always been with us, so close it actually IS what we are, whether true Self, God or Clear Light. We Awaken from the mistake that we were something else our whole lives - our biological selves. Blissful, fearless, our survivors find a smile on our dead lips.

> I believe its your "ego" and your personal you that you take to the after life with you.

I'm the opposite... it is our "ego" (or sense of duality) that keeps us bound to individual consciousness while "after life" is an awakening to singular consciousness shared by everything. I like to use a quilt as an analogy; our individual lives are like the patches in the quilt, but if we could step back, we would see that the individual patches are really a part of the whole.
