Well, I was thinking of something that would experience the lives of every living thing that has ever attained consciousness. But who could say that it was one entity, if no memories could pass from one life to the next? Personally, I believe your experience just ends when you die. There is no more you, and you can't care because there's no you to care about the fact that you're dead.
