I think I blew my own mind

I don't know, if you think about it like that, dying isn't really anything. It is literally nothing at all. I guess believe in reincarnation in a way, only for the fact that I think that "nothing" cannot exist, to break it down, non-existence is non-existant. It's more like conscious experience never stops. I mean it continues in that instead of experiencing reality from one perspective, we actually eventually experience every perspective of existence infinitely. Lol im stoned and in a thinking mood, jump in on my train of thought if it's coherent enough.

sounds like youve experienced an understanding of oneness ...everything as a whole. your physical body dies..but your energy might transcend...energy isnt lost..and whos to say that your soul isnt its own energy. or...this energy belonging to the cosmos...you. heres a couple of quotes with a simliar perspective.

"you can die but you're never dead, spider web"rhcp

"we are a way for the cosmos to know itself"-unknown

We live we die, souls interupted like breath in the wind. I made that up-what do you think?

i'm hardcore into physics ,studing the universe, as well as ancient civilizations. and i think everything dies and goes to the "Heavens". which is what will happen when our beautiful life giving sun (the same one that makes our weed grow :P) goes through it's later cycles and completely incinerates our planet. the universe recycles everything! as for the energy that is our "soul", well it has to return back to the universe as well. which means it also had to come from someplace before it was merged with our bodies. so I think this means I agree with whiteshark.

sound like a sweet song lyric

well u all learn in school that energy doesn't die, it just goes somewhere else.

The grave is called a place of safety, according to Job, like a hiding place.

these questions are for better understanding of your view and not trying to be a smart ass.

by saying he "became a living soul" are you inferring that he was a dead soul before that or just without a soul? if god only blew into man does that mean no other animals have souls? if the whole "creation story" is literal and not just a story, which is accurate, Genesis 1 or Genesis 2 because they give two contradictory accounts?
