The after Life might be like a lucid dream,
Hello guys,
First of all this is not looking at things from a spiritual/religious angle this is looking at it from a scientific angle. Now to start did you know some scientists believe that consciousness can exist out of the body? And when I looked further into this it's quite interesting there are good debates for both sides, but if this is not true then the whole 'after life' thing would be just a load of BS (from a scientific point of view). The thing which leans me to this being possible is because the arguing scientists say that consciousness and subconsciousness is a by-product of our brain. But how can this be? Imagine consciousness is you, without it IMO your a mindless robot, doing exactly what your brain tells you to do. It could never have been this way, it just seems so wrong. But then it's also argued that dreams are by-products but honestly I don't think they are, but lets get back on with the theory :content:. So provided that both your consciousness and subconious are both in tack after death then you should be you just without any body parts. This is where it starts to get really scientific because that first obstical was the hardest to look at from a scientific perspective. Ok so you have no body.... No sensory detection at all, not ears, not a mouth, no hands etc... You have nothing to build your visual stimuli or any stimuli for that matter. So what does you consciousness do... Hallucinate, a dream in other words. It creates a dream world after death, but provided you are not asleep when you die then you should have no lapse of consciousness and get lucid. The best part about this is that your dream would last forever because never would your coniousness hook up to external components for any sort of stimuli. Eventually this dream, becomes reality your in a lucid wonderland, you can create entire worlds and test them out and not worry about time or losing lucidity because you know that this is your new reality, because you remember dying. Now I thought I would add a extension on here because this is quite cool. Basically if consciousness can exist out of body it would explain so many things that branch off lucid dreaming and also it would in a sense allow two dead people to visit each others conscious hallucination because that is all they are as well. I know there is one huge loop hole here where does the coniousness go? I believe the answer of this is space, I believe that is one of the reasons it could be there. Because everyone knows that no scientist ever to exist will know two things, firstly what happens when we die? And secondly what is the mystry of space? And I'm not saying that this theory is true, because I would be going against my core scientific beliefs that what you see is what you get... But I thought I would get this out there because it seems like a pretty good semi- scientific theory to the after life and because this is a lucid dreaming forum it seemed quite relevant.
