what happens when you die?
I believe in the degradation theory thing.
You just degrade until you're nothing but elements.
Then, obviously, something eventually is made from
those elements. And if you're lucky enough to re-assume
the role of a human, consider yourself lucky.
Not that you'll ever realise you were or will be another
human being. It's like the ultimate paradox, 'what happens?'
Living life as something other than a
creature with rational thought, concience, reason, or
a 'mind' would be horrid. I'd imagine living with just
natural instinct would be similar to living like a junkie.
You don't think anymore, you just need to do things.
You don't get to decide anymore, you take life as it
comes because that's all you know. Eat, sleep, shit,
hydrate, eat, sleep, shit, hydrate. It's like an endess
cycle of meanial tasks just to stay alive... And for what
purpose? To kill? To be killed? Why is any lifeform
significant other than to die for the survial of another?
This is what I have, and always will believe.
There is no afterlife until you are recreated.
But even then, you're unable to recognize who,
or what you were before. So technically, it's a new life.
If you're even something that can come to that conclusion.
It's complicated shit, dying and stuff.
I almost hate thinking about it. But all the amazing things
that could happen are endless and really interesting.
what happens when you die?
I once heard a theory that when you die its like your in an endless dream and every time you 'wake up' your in a different dream. Its a beautiful idea but its just a theory and i dont really see the logic behind it.
what happens when you die?
I think the dream theory is based off
the fact that when you die, your brain
releases DMT, which can make 10 seconds
feel like 10 years. I'd image that's what
they're going off of anyways.

I like Jimi's reasoning....
"Life must be positive...if your life means something then happiness will follow. Everyone has something to give. Your body is as unimportant as one fish in the sea compared with your soul. I believe you live and live again until you have got all the evil and hatred out of the soul."- J. Hendrix

well according to current science the universe is NOT infinite so it has an end of some sort... you make it sound so silly to believe there is something outside our physical universe. do you have a better picture of what lies beyond the boundaries of our universe since we know according to current physics that it has a definitive size and mass.. therefore an end.. it is not infinite
do you have a better picture of what it means to have a finite universe than to believe there is a spiritual or astral or some other level of consciousness beyond this physical reality? or do you like to lol at people's attempts to make sense of existence and the world around them?

on the topic of our souls, or our energy, or our "particles" being reused... i think it's safe to assume that all the energy that is here on earth now has always been here (since it cannot be created or destroyed)...
so does that mean that all of our energy has been used before? we are infact, according to that little theory, used energy. as much as we are discussing where we WILL go, nobody has discussed where we HAVE been.
Maybe all of us who enjoy the use of MJ have, in fact, been the energy for an MJ plant in the past! I betchu I was potent shit hehe, but seriously... if we all are just reusable energy (which i think is fucking AWESOME) then we currently are proof that you don't remember your past use... WICKID... what do you guys think???
ps this fucking thread is awesome

We're everything.
We've been everything.
We will be everything.
Energy is the ultimate recycable.
It will never run out.
Why did energy happen is what I want to know.
Where did it come from if it wasn't created.
Why does it happen?
Is there a source?
Who are we?
Why do we exist?
Why does anything exist?
Do we actually exist?
If sight and sound is how are brains interpret stimuli,
how do we actually know what happens around us
is what is actually happening around us?
More or less, if a tree falls in the woods,
and no one is around to hear it,
does it make a noise?
No.
Noise is the brains way of interpereting sound waves.
If there aren't any brains to do so, then it technically
makes no noise.
There are so many paradi in the world, it's incredible.
We think we're intellegent, yet we can't solve answers
that really matter. We just make up reason so we don't
have to figure them out. Hense, religion.
We need to concentrate on solving these problems, not killing each other.
The only way to continue existing is to try and find out why we exist.
If there is a common goal for all people to share, then there's no reason to
fight.
Technically we're all the same. Technically we're all different.
Different and the Same.
We're the same as the earth, and we're different from the earth.
We're all seperate, different beings, yet, we're all the same once we break down,
we're all energy.
Everything is made of energy, so why fight? We're all the same.
We, as a whole, concentrate on the differences and not the similarities.
I feel like I'm rambling, and I just keep typing what comes to mind.
I'm sorry if I confuse people, but I confuse myself too. Hahah
Thanks for reading. :]

Plus, we're all breaking down into energy constantly.
If not, why would we need to pump energy into ourselves to keep us alive.
We're inefficient.
Nothing can or ever will be 100% efficient.
There's no such thing as perpetual motion.
You can't stop the transfer of energy.
You can't stop molecular movement.
Everything is constantly changing and reforming.

Wow that was cool. After reading that I thought you were proper old and wise but then I checked your profile and saw that you were born the day after me haha
what happens when you die?
i think Energy was the reaction of some other action that DIDN'T require energy...
an energy-less cause resulted in energy...
the question then becomes what could possibly be so awesomely powerful that it could create such a reaction WITHOUT energy?
Scientists think that our Universe may just be one "cell", or membrane amongst an infinite number of membranes, and they think that when those branes collide, they cause this huge explosion of energy (big bang), thus resulting in the observable world we see today.
I have a lot to add on your sight/sound/brain interpretations, b/c I LOVE thinking about that stuff, but I have to go... but basically, yea our senses are amazing and can allow us to experience 5 different stimuli of our world... but sometimes i feel like we are LIMITED to only those 5 senses... i always think that there are other things capable of being observed and experienced, we just don't have the SENSES to sense them.
it all has to do with our evolution... the senses became activated as they were needed... feelers and antenae started to grow at the front of our ancient, ancient organisms, and ultimately became eyes.
AH!!
