I think loosing all ur memorys would be the equivilent to dieing and being reborn as a new person like that religion with the thing with like 8 arms.
that is an interesting question that i have asked myself before. I'm glad to know we are on the same level of thought here. What you are thinking is that what makes us who we are is our personality, which is a product of our past experiences and memory. I think that losing your memories is close to death because you are given a clean conscience/personality and are basically reborn again, brand-new. The religion u are thinking of is probably Buddhism or even Hinduism.

Myself, I kinda believe in reincarnation, but I like to think in a way that is harmonious with science. I think alot about mortality while I'm high because I enter a thought-conscious, observant state of mind much different from my passive, thoughtless self. I develop my theories on religion when I am high. In a nutshell, I believe that the Universe is made up of matter and energy all around in the form of atoms and photons. When we die we return to our form as atoms because we have no life-giving energy in our body. Our body's matter is released back into the Earth and the atoms that used to be our body are dispersed to and fro. So in essence, we become one with the cycle of energy and matter that makes up our universe.

So...I think that our personality or what we percieve to be our "mind" is a figment of our imagination - our minds are just organized chemical reactions.
Xhoshi Reviewed by Xhoshi on . SMARTEST THING WHILE BAKED Numerous threads have centred around the dumbest or craziest thing anyone's ever done when baked.... Well, here's one about the smartest thing you've done/said baked. For me it was when I was high with my friend and I said "You know what, man, death is what you think. Like, the body and the mind are separate entities, so death frees the mind from the body and allows it to experience perception without having the limitations of needing sensation for it. So it's like an eternal lucid dream, Rating: 5
