If you destroy something and you get something else in place, there are people who think they are Jesus Christ reincarnation, that demons are real and so forth, if you destroy mind , time , well you cant destroy it, you can only change what you perceive, anyway , if you destroy these things there will be no birth and no time for you, technically they are gone nowhere , this information is still somewhere there, you have people who get stuck in non -dual states for life time. And it is really no different from you being stuck on thinking what you are right now.

No. From the absolute perspective, there is no future. Death is a concept and doesn't exist. From the relative perspective, the illusion will continue after death. Probably in some astral realms and or reincarnation. Death will be like falling asleep and then waking again. The illusion only stops with mahasamadhi.

I always thought of reincarnation in a less literal sense, like as in you (god) are reincarnated infinitely living all possible lives. But I never took it as a linear timeline of birth and death, or where you get reincarnated based on how moral you were.

Reincarnation: Is it real? No Cause you and all else ain't real Tadaa

My opinion: nothing will happen, the pattern that you are shaping the nothing will simply dissolve. as you say, me, the neighbor and my dog will still be alive, but they are the same as you, simple (or complicated, better) forms out of nothingness. if you do deep you realize that who you really are is nothingness, and that nothingness is. everything will remain the same without you, because when you die your form will disappear. do not worry because I will continue to exist, I am you. Regarding reincarnation, I think that perhaps there is some continuity of the pattern that you have been, an evolution. but what we call identity is an empty pattern. it's the substance of nothingness that fills it

Appreciating the kind words everyone, thanks. ?? We’re probably more on the same page than you’re thinking. Nonduality means not two, so imagine reincarnation in the sense you describe, that which people attest to, just, not two.

You're reading a lot into what I said. I don't deny the possibility of there being continuities of body and mind across different lifetimes, but this doesn't change the fact that you're not that body or mind. The fact that there is a memory of a body from yesterday or 1000 years ago doesn't change the fact that you're not that body. Why does this matter you may ask? Well, because the person who goes to reincarnation as a belief (or even from direct experience) in order to soothe their fear of non-existence/impermanence (by believing that some essence of their identity will be carried on in order to reassure oneself of one's finite existence) will necessarily be disappointed. The fear of death has to be faced at the end of every incarnation anyway, because after all, it's the attachment to "this" body and mind that is causing the fear, and it's those things that are going to disappear forever. If you weren't afraid to lose those things, then you wouldn't need the reassurance of a finite eternal essence in the first place. Impermanence is a matter of fact. You cannot escape it, even if you were to reincarnate an infinite amount of times. If impermanence (non-existence of finite things) doesn't become obvious at the end of your lifetime, there is no difference between infinity and impermanence anyway. Anything finite will at the end of the day have to disappear: the only thing you're guaranteed is an infinite eternal essence; no self.

What does reincarnation even mean when there is no such thing as a "you"? There is no "you" that reincarnates

Why does he say that there is no reincarnation? I think it is because he is focused on the perspective of formlessness/awareness, where it alone is the ultimate truth, and from that perspective he has built his belief system. This type of spiritual teaching is powerful and has helped a lot of people evolve, but it can also be seen as limiting because it invalidates a lot of powerful truths and teachings that could also benefit someone. It's a beautiful web you are spinning, but I will not get stuck in it We can understand and integrate the essence of your teachings without copying your beliefs. Will you create videos with energy/shaktipat? That would be interesting!

On Eckhart Tolle. It’s possible that there is something to reincarnation and that it takes several lifetimes to become enlightened. You don’t know what path Eckhart walked to get where he arrived. Also, effort does not necessarily get you anywhere. There is a Zen story, a young man visited a Zen master and asked him, if I become a monk how long will it take me to become enlightened? Ten years, replied the Zen master. And if I really work hard at it? Twenty years. I’ve heard the proces of enlightenment being compared to relaxing a fist that has been held tightly clenched for so long that it refuses to open on its own. It’s not about effort, it is about achieving a natural state of quiet, ease, understanding and relaxed surrender. And then you wait... it’s not you who does this, there is a grace associated with it.

I mean Leo explained death as the ultimate spiritual death where you explode into infinity. but what about reincarnation? why didn't Leo talk about that? is not what will happen in most case scenarios? or did I just not watch the whole video? I am not sure actually. Connor offers some nice explanation for reincarnation in the images below.

Yeah, have even watch my physical body on another occasion. There were some individuals that caused this. Leaving the body felt like the lightest thing i could do in the universe. I could see and hear as if all senses became one. My functioning went from 60-70 procentile to 100. I saw my body. It was completely impersonal. A small rock on the asfalt was more personal to me than that body. It also emanated a greyish and somewhat darker energy than the surroundings. Like they say "low vibration" in the spiritual community or something like that. It is part of the path to experience it this way. Much easier to dissidentify from the body and harder to convince oneself again when you have seen that you are not it but have one. Had a satori moment before this happened. Spent a huge time training the WILL after that and penetrated the ego with the WILL until it shattered. Then i penetrated the solidified pain in the solar plexus and in the neck. Integrated the energetic pain from there so to allow the kundalini rise from the hearth into the brain in order to become its ruler. Had this energy rised into the middle between the brows last summer. A whole new sunny field of appreciation opened up in my perception. All possible perspectives became one. I looked at a house with appreciation as i was the man that painted it. I appreciated the curvature of the road as if i was an architect that planned it. I felt the appreciation to go home to meet a wife as if i was in 1960. Looked at the sea and everything was very vibrant and i was everyting and everyone that could be imagined. This lasted for an hour until the energy went lowered back into the head. I think these experiences are just a byproduct of this process. Had many more of them. Seems to be much easier having it. A dimension I forgot to mention that not only the kundalini is causing the particle release but there is something extremely fast that rotates subtly around my body that is also the case for this release process. As i understand these particles are called Skandhas . When we die these particles are left in the earthly atmosphere while the individual is resting in devachan. They act as karmic agents and bring back the individual into a reincarnation cycle. They attach gradually to the new body and build up the present personality of the individual throughout its life. The more i consume these particles the less of a chanse i would come back into earths physical atmosphere again. That is atleast in my theory and i am not sure how close to reality it is. As i have nothing to do here anymore and hopefully most lessons are learned already.

Suicide is selfish, therefore you can only die and go to Unity as opposed to reincarnation when you least expect it.

Thank you for the insightful answer ! I found a video on this topic that I thought was absolutely fascinating. It describes the 7 densities of consciousness and reincarnation cycle from the book the Law of One (RA material). I would love to know what some of you guys think of this video !

This brings up the question of reincarnation, when we die wouldn't our consciousness just manifest into another life form? Some spiritual circles correlate reincarnation only to human life but out the trillions of galaxies there must be many other forms we can come back to, trippy....

I'm scared shitless of death.... .. Even tho.. after doing insane amounts of contemplation.. I found that death is not even a fact lol(yeah whatever) I really couldn't find a single evidence that death is real .. But that's more on the back burner there is this ultimate fear. The kicker is of course.. You have not the first clue what's going to happen after death.. The body seems to die. What goes on after that?.?? Nobody knows. Sweet... And life is short you know.. 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, years max and ba bye. How to overcome fear of death? Let me say given that.. Death itself is unknown (or known, I don't even know lol)(this is a consequence of Leo's mantra "death is imaginary" .. And what's afterwards is unknown (if lay aside religious stories and philosophical speculation). Hands down.. Reincarnation.. Nothingness.. Heaven and hell realms etc are nothing but beautiful beliefs.

Of course not knowing can sometimes be extremely fear-triggering. Think about finding yourself in a place or a house and you know absolutely nothing about it.. . You would be afraid until you can get certain about where you are and who brought you there and so forth. And it happened a lot during one's life where you are forced to deal with uncertainty.. It feels uncomfortable.. Those the rare occasion when everyone’s life gets sideswiped and we are forced to sit in a vast uncertainty for an extended period of time. How deadly is the virus? (Corona) We don’t know. How long will this last? No idea. Are the drastic social precautions worth it? Maybe—maybe not. Are there effective treatments? Perhaps. Also perhaps not. Is the virus influenced by the weather.. by genetics.. by geography? Probably.. maybe.. and.. uh… shrug? Most scenarios (from what you presented) seem to trigger some sort of fear.. For example the idea of hell seems to cause existential crisis when reflected upon long enough. The idea of eternal annihilation seems to drive me crazy.. The idea of eternal life via reincarnation seems to equal eternal suffering. Etc. It seems like whatever is gonna happen causes some anxiety. And once again the kicker is you don't even know. You are completely clueless. You will only know when you die. In a sense yes.. You could say I know nothing. But there is a difference..at some level.. Experiencing something =knowing it. I have experienced this world.. So it can be said that I know about It at some level. But I have no experience of death.. It's completely unknown.. As I mentioned in OP.. You can even get skeptical about whether death is even real.

Since it is the same thing looking through all of our eyes and there is only the one Subject i would say that an identity/person cant possibly remember a previous life since the person in every experience is just the awareness appearing as that and forgetting its true nature since that it the only way creation can happen, a subject/object split must happend but you are the subject and the object. So ofcourse reincarnation is true in that way but in no way would an ego remember a previous life cause the ego is a function of awareness but is an illusion nevertheless. Awareness is infinite appearing as different finite things

Hi Leo I believe it's hard to find many good sources to learn about really advanced spirituality stiff, like psychic abilities such as astral projection I've heard some people even had theire awakening when they had a astral projection experience or subjects like parallel universes, reincarnation, past lives these topics seem to be important and very interesting but it's really hard to find good teachers who explain it well.

This dude has a lot of toxic stuff in his obituary not gonna lie. He needed karma cleansing. His reincarnation will be filled with guilt as per Hindu tradition.

She also claims to be the reincarnation of a great yogi sage lol

@cetustold me that eating taco is the same. Have question regarding self realization and reincarnation. Why you are not allowed new dream if you obviously to really achieve it for sure you are not attached or even interested to keep this one going on. Despite everything self realization brings. Should be allowed and rewarded with mahasamadhi if I am not interested in any dream ever again. Should have that right.

?? @Eren Eeager There aren’t “separate selves”, and stories about individual selves therefore will not do. There is reincarnation, but it can not be explained. Only self realization will do.

?? @Eren Eeager Reincarnation, souls, densities are all mechanics of the movie (take it with a grain of salt since there wasn't any verification in the direct experience on this side, there is just openness for such ideas, since life is a miracle). The illusion of death, who are you, is pointing to the screen. Everything comes & go, but you are always here & now, you can't disappear, not possible. That's where the end of suffering lies. There is only screen. Peace.

Thank you for your thoughtful replies. This is a lot to take in. I guess, a different way to put it, would be what was the first iteration of the universe? If the reincarnation cycle is endless -- whether that applies to an individual or the universe, seems to make no difference from what I gather, because Godhead includes all of it. I can understand conceptually counting from zero to infinity. That we may be experiencing "Universe # 5,928,212" but at some point there had to have been a "Universe Zero" when it all began. How can it have no starting point? And what caused Godhead to attain or create its own consciousness? Or is it because with each 'end' all dualities collapse and so there is no distinction between end and beginning. I feel that that would still fail to describe what the cause of the then rebirth of dualities. My head is exploding!
