What's after death?

[Xenophon]

Hey, I like coining words myself. (German is far more flexible here. For that matter Chinese too, once the locals get over their shock.) I like it so much, I treat my propensity the way I do Messican cactus whiskey. Which is to say, with caution.

 

[Konsciencia]

The only way to find out. Is when we crossover.

 

[Xenophon]

That's kind of what I was saying. Testimony is still just testimony be it from Rev. Uppryte, my dead Uncle Uriah the Druid, the Archangel Gabriel, or the Burning Bush.

One hopes for afterlife; finds it hard to argue with Melville's Father Mapple, "What is man that he should live out the lifetime of his God?"

Heaven or hell, is my thoughts as of these times.

Heaven or hell

It is unlikely that Reality is binary.

As I look out my window, the scene is full of subtle color variations

As above so below

So...the afterlife is the Hotel California? ("...I was thinking to myself this could be heaven or it could be hell...")

This is why I personally think reincarnation has the strongest argument. Just like our physical bodies decay and return to the earth, our spirits are stripped of our personalities and return to the source to be recycled again.

our spirits are stripped of our personalities

There is the concept of "permanent atoms".

So that reincarnated human does not start from zero each life, the physical, emotional and mental refinement (or lack thereof) is stored during each life and carried over to the next incarnation. The new bodies are built on the patterns stored in the permanent atoms.

Even on the simplest level, some humans look very refined and some do not. One time I took a commuter train for another area of suburbs. I was shocked at how unrefined were the bodies of those people.

As a more positive example:

Mozart showed prodigious ability from his earliest childhood. ... he composed from the age of five and performed before European royalty.

Does the recovery of lost divinity have anything to do with the recovery of lost virginity?

Sorry for all the quotes. Computer is sluggish today. Anyway, that may be an inconveniently apropos question.

In old times sacred persons were to refrain from sexual activities throughout life just to get a more Divine energies.

I imagine, but that does not answer the question

My ex, after two children, still referred to herself as a virgin

 

[Xenophon]

You walk the same streets I do. Lots of bipedal insects out there. Either they lost it or never had it.

How can a human lose its divinity?

A smooth line of patter and devilish good looks might get you there.

I do not think that means what you think it means

Heaven or hell, is my thoughts as of these times.

The reason I say this, and it echoes what a few others wrote was my Baptist Mother's NDE during a severe first heart attack.
She was in a courtroom, where she saw a vision of all thoughts words and acts done in a lifetime, and she pleased to return to see my Sister and I graduate.
She returned as they were about to sign a death certificate.
She had a second heart attack after my graduation during my freshman college Spring Break, who was on my mind the entire time.
I know that others claim the Goetic and hell in the Qlippoth exist, and experiments with Shem angels, that they exist as well.
Fae exist as well with my dabbling with ancient Gaelic. Who also believe in heavens and an underworld.
The Bibles prophecies, self fulfilling or not, ring true.

Some decades ago, a local billionaire fell off his horse at polo and had a near death experience.

He said he was alone in a dark cold spiky place and he did not want to go back there.

He himself was dark, cold and spiky. So I suppose he went to his natural environment after death

 

[Xenophon]

I do not think that means what you think it means

It is a woman's prerogative that words mean whatever she thinks they mean. It's up to you to divine what.
