time after death

this is one thing that has freaked me out completely

think hard about this

what if as soon as we die, its the complete end, absolutely nothing, just a black screen. you will never hear see or feel again, in fact our brains wont even be intact, if you think deeply into this, it will scare you, in fact sometimes ive thought so far into this, that i can feel as though im almost like starting a paradox

 

that's pretty much how i expect death to be, which is partly why it scares the hell out of me

 

Sounds like paradise...

 

oh wow i think about this one sometimes! its so creepy if you focus on it
also, its like if nothing of this was very made, like no universe of colours or peoples or god or whatever. like its just black..but black hasnt been made so what would be there if nothing is there but the thing 'nothing' hasnt been invented

 

Thats exacly what I think death is

 

Sometimes oblivion seems like a good thing. No pain, no hate, safe and quiet like a good long sleep.

 

it kinda scares me but then i start thinking about reincarnation and nirvana and a non-religious paradise

 

you mean like tahiti? because once you're dead you can't really enjoy that either

 

I love thinking about it. the idea that I'm becoming flower feed is fucking crazy, at least I'll be able to give to the earth through death.

 

i was more thinking of like Holland where prostitution is legal weed is legal and you can buy alcohol when your 16 or older

and about the previous post: i don't want to be buried, the thought of being put into the cold damp earth where my corpse will be eaten by worms just scares me, i'd rather have a viking funeral where my body is put on a wooden raft or such, sent out to sea and then set on fire, i freakin' love fire

 

yeah i believe this is what happens when you die. I dont believe in heaven or hell. Im not scared to die old after ive livedmy life, im just scared to die young and not experience the things i want to.

 

I basically picture death in the same way. I always think its probably so weird to be a victim of a shooting, especially if you never see the bullet shot at you. I mean seriouslly think about this: Its your daily life, doing the same shit everyday. You walk into a convience store and a robber walks in behind you, blasts a cap in your head and you never even knew it was coming. Literally everything just stops right then. You dont even know your dead before your actually dead. I just cant fathom how crazy this could be. I also think death for animals must be really weird. Like insects who get killed by humans. A spider is just crawling on the ground and next thing it knows it has a giant foot coming over it, and then bam, lights out forever.

 

its wierd, but i actually dont picture death as the end of everything, and a "black screen"..idk why, its just like everything seems like theres much more to it! life in general, NATURE and everything...when i look at death and think about it, i feel like something should go on after death, i reallllly reallllly believe that something happens after death. idk why but i do, it just seems foolish not to

im jewish, but im not very religious at all, my whole family is very very religious, and my whole family came from isreal, its wierd that i pretty much dont believe in religion like i used to..

 

^^I really wish i could believe that

 

i guess i just HOPE that death isn't that black screen. like think about how complex our brains and bodies are in life, what if when you died, you flipped a switch or something that allowed you to percieve/sense things in a whole new way. what if it allowed your concious mind to be separate from you brain and body that are now useless and you can just exist as a thought or a little ball of plasma or something. what if we are chilling on planet earth but also heaven and hell at the same time and when you die, depending on the type of person you are, you can then percieve either heaven or hell. everyone's heaven or hell or just plain afterlife could be something completely different, just depending on what you think. so i guess i'm gonna continue thinking this, so that just in case the def. of heaven is up to me, i wanna make sure it is fuckin sweet, not some lifeless, empty black.

 

When you die, You are blind, death and unable to move. yet somewhere your mind is still ticking and it wants to move and your thoughts get more desperate each second. but you just lay there and you cannot move and you cannot breathe. This is death in the first twelve minutes. Twelve minutes later. Nothing.

 

Its good that this scares you. That means you enjoy life, but its nothing to be afraid of, its not like your mind will still work and you'll be aware of the situation you're in. It will be just like things were before you were born.

 

I don't know who told you that.... but they were pulling your leg. There have been people who have be "dead" (no brain activity) for up to 30 mins at a time and were revived, but none (that I've heard of anyway) have ever said anything like this.

 

yea, you are the only one that talks about it like it's happened to you. have you DIED? then how the hell do you know man? everyone else is just making speculations, not trying to say they know for sure, that's just dumb.

 

I've been with several people when they have died. And the one thing they all had in common was that they were thinking of home. I don't think death is complete oblivion, I think it's a transition, that you can't understand until you experience it. It comes to all of us, so you do need to make peace with it.
