Life after life? Whats your take?

Does life end with death? What happens then? What do you think? I believe in Jesus, in judgement day, in hell & heaven (eternal life/death). I would love to know what other people believe in!

I just want to know what TEDsters believe in, and how deeply they have thought about this topic!

Many offer various opinions... Some like Dr.Rawlings became a believer following his interactions with patients who had near death experiences!

  • Jul 13 2012: There is no life and death. The confines of the 3-dimensional universe that we live in is just the limitations of what our body is limited to, but not our mind. The universe we live in is made to perfectly have the forces of the universe to create the world we live in, the moon, the sun, the stars, etc. anything and everything in the universe. What happens when our 3-dimensional body stops running is that the 4-dimensional universe that we are unable to perceive with the limitations of our 3-dimensional body moves our consciousness so that it is able to exceed the limitations of our body. The body is just chemicals that decompose and go back to part of being the universe, but the mind leaves the limitations of the 3rd dimension, which allows us to float freely in a much less restricted universe.

      Jul 13 2012: I have always liked this approach to the issue. I'd be curious to hear from you and others:

      What would count as evidence-for you-that the mind is a 4-d (actually higher, but this works for now) object, rather than merely a 3-d one?
      • Jul 13 2012: Physics, the theory of everything, the science and laws of nature, is all what I like to think is evidence for multidimensional framework of what our "consciousness" actually is. My theory is that our mind is a form of energy in upper dimensions, but the energy comes from where our 3-dimensional bodies move, and interact. The "thoughts" that our mind use as defining who we are could very well be something like a nucleus in a cell, that makes chemical reactions to move as is required, but in a multiple dimensional perspective. Let's say an upper-dimensional being needs to move his "arm" within the confines of his dimensions, then the "laws" of motion and physics and "chemistry" within that dimension dictates what our minds(the "nucleus" of his multi-dimensional cells) think. I have just recently thought of this very possibility, and have been unable to stop thinking about how profound this idea could be, and the ramifications of finding out whether or not it's true.

          how does Love fit into your theory?
