Life after Death

I had a question from a student on my home forum and thought it might be intersting to post our conversation here

He claimed that death eneded everything and I responded by saying that energy can never die.

This was his next question

This was my answer:

We are into deep metaphysical waters here. If you are truly interested this conversation will take quite a few posts. If not, it will go over your head and no harm will be done.

I am going to start right at the top and work back wards.

According to nuclear theory, mass and energy are inter-changeable. Energy is Mass.

Nothing is said about consciousness

Since consciousness is intrinsically subjective, science is excluded from factoring it into the equation via its own empirical rules of objectivity, even though common sense tells all of us that consciousness patently exists.

The meta-physician is not limited by this artificial rule. Thus for him, energy, matter and consciousness are accepted as all one and the same.

Atomic energy in any form is always conscious and assumes the consciousness of the form it is associated with. Rocks act like rocks, trees like trees and humans like humans. All are made of atoms and all are intrinsically in extra-sensory (Divine) communication. No two forms of consciousness are ever exactly alike.

So for the metaphsyician, whatever years you spend consciously imprinting new and unique experiences throughout your life, that conscious effort flavors the atomic energy that comprise your body. In other words you create our own unique atomic signature, or aura.

The more self aware you become in life the purer your aura is and the closer to white light it gets. That personal signature sends out vibes that extend throughout the cosmos. The energy you flavored is your consciousness and it will always be you eternally. It cannot die.

According to the Laws of Karma, its power can be added to or subtracted.

Last comment about how it cannot die.
Can it change?
If it can change, it can be changed into a mode in which it is no longer active, thus “dead”.
Likewise, when or if “dead”, it can potentially be changed so that it is active/alive again.
So we can agree that consciousness can be degraded, turned off, separated, poisoned, etc.

The question may instead be : Can or does life exist independant of solid matter, 3dimensional gas and fluids?
Yes. Why? Because life is generally based on structure, and structure exists in mediums other than the solid 3-dimensional.

For afterlife of some part of a person, after/when they “die”, records of OBEs from NDEs are the main info had, other than psycism.

I think that confuses the subject. We have already stated that matter is just a projection of conscious energy.

4

I would sooner say that all known matter is precieved and known due to a union or interaction between conscious energy and unconscious energy. But, what “conscious energy” and “projection” truly are par view and explanation becomes highly diverse as a term.

Energy changes form all the time. What makes you think that an aura would be different, that its energy would not be subject to the same rules? When it travels it will be distorted to observers, it will become less ‘luminous’ due to leaving the source in a spherical pattern, and when it hits something it will change. Your flavored energy will eventually become indistinguishable from what it once was.

Unless, of course, it’s some brandy-new energy, in which case I’d ask you to prove its existence.

Form is essentially imaterial. What matters is the knowingness of consciousness.

7

So, which is it, the white aura matters or it’s immaterial?

8

I should have said the intensity of consciousness. The more self-aware one is the less contaminated the aura is.
White light has no definable form

That doesn’t mean immaterial.

True. But light is a reflected illusion. Only Consciousness is. Everything else is immaterial. The illusion of it amuses Consciousness.
