This is a good place to start this thread, since it relates one of the most puzzling questions of all - question about the afterlife.
I said something on the pool "what happens after you die?" about it.
I think that death means loss of all knowledge, informations, our body and brain decays - and since I dont believe in body-mind dualism - there is no way for pure consciousness to exist, as it is impossible to go "in heaven or hell" or to reincarnate - since reincarnation presumes body-mind dualism.
What I want to investigate is - how would oscillations of the universe impact on the possibility of the "cycle of life".
Moreover, if we leave all to the chaos + probability, we can see that really crazy things are possible - only if the universe is oscillating.
Also, this raises the question about determinism and free will.
For example, even if we imagine that "cycle of life" is possible - what would these other lifes look like?
Identical like this here, identical in every action - or completely different?
Or something very similar but not identical?
I would appreciate every thought and idea about it!
regards!
