my guess is something along the lines of your individual consciousness returning to whence it came. im still having a long argument with myself over whether consciousness is a byproduct of neural activity or vice versa. |

The thread about how you feel about death go me wondering about what people think happens after you die. My personal opinion is that you get reeincarnated as a higher or lesser being depending on how you lived your life, and once you get to the highest living being, you go to something like an afterlife world, that works like a lucid dream where you have full control, except everyone who has reached this plane is there, and you never wake up. Also, I believe that humans are in the middle of the scale of high and low, not at the top as many believe. |

The Angel of God once told me that not all will live beyond the Grave. The notion of a universal immortality is relatively recent. The Ancient Greeks had thought that immortality was the primary quality of Divinity -- that only Gods and Heroes were immortal, and that the majority of men would simply die and turn to dust. |
