I REMEMBERED WHAT I FORGOT
I Remembered What I Forgot
OK. So I remembered what I wanted to record on my blog. Geez! Whenever I go to sleep at night, or through the day, or
anytime, I don't dream. I may as well be dead. I'm sure I do dream. Everyone dreams. I
can even remember bits of my dream every once-in-a-while. But, that's
extremely rare. That is my idea of what death is like. Everything
becomes nothing. No thoughts. No sounds. No visions. No one to talk to.
Just black space - everywhere. Everything is nothing. That is my concept
of death.
A lot of people make a big deal about dying and going to heaven. But do we go to heaven? The more I think about it, the less I think that happens. We may never go to heaven. We may be a creation of other, more intelligent and ingenious beings from out there. Mere biological robots.
Theories exist that we were created to mine gold on Earth, our home planet. We were created from animals, but we were given other characteristics that the animal kingdom does not have. We are like our creators in certain ways. That is written in the Holy Bible. It may be in other sacred texts, too. This comes to mind since Mom passed last year - in September of 2015. I wonder where she is or isn't. Her soul.
So, what happens when we die? I don't know, but I don't believe we go to heaven, at least not so soon. We may never go. That may be a hopeful idea that is placed in our brain at birth to alleviate our feelings about death.
Our whole image of heaven and life-after-death may be false, a mirage. Or, our interpretation may be distorted. I have my ideas and theories concerning that.
When we do die, our body stops living. Duh! Whatever we have for a soul goes into another living condition. Life is eternal. But, everything about our human life that ended did just that - our human body died and that life ended. Those memories died. What may continue? I don't know. Everything that was alive is now dead and decaying. If our soul lives in another body somewhere, all the living substance that existed in that body before has died and exists only within the decomposing body. It is gone. That soul must start anew. It is not reincarnation as I thought before. The person is dead. The soul may exist in another body, but it needs to be trained and reconstituted to perform duties as the newest being. That is not reincarnation.
As infants, we need to do physical things. Some over and over and over; training and retraining the muscles and the mind. Letting the body become a new creature. So, why don't we remember any of this from before? Because that body is dead. We are born with amnesia. The soul must start anew - every time.
I liken it to someone suffering a severe brain injury. And that is where I had first-hand experience, in January of 1983. I forget so much of my life since being the passenger in a car crash. I became a survivor; I lived through the crash. My memories were either destroyed or scattered all over my mind. Nothing was the same afterward. Nothing can ever be the same. Some people may understand this, but very few. I don't understand. How can I explain it? Especially now, when I want to go back to bed for tonight.
