What really happens after death?

[Rhythmic Entity]

Will sentience/awareness cease to be forever?

Is it even possible to cease to be conscious/aware?

Is it the case that we continuously experience an infinite number of lives? 

I just wonder 🤔...is there anyone who can lift the veil as far as what death even is or what happens thereafter?(What's it like?) Just curious.

You wake up as a void of nothing and go huh. That was a dream. Now what theres nothing here.

Pretty interesting take. It's freeing to know that life isn't to be taken too seriously.

Well its the belief that you didnt die, but that you are alive and very much well, which isnt on a basis of belief so much as its what you anticipate as being there, and what that anticipation is, continues as whatever else, which continues and continues, etc., until you feel youve broken your brain. isnt anyway else to describe it but to keep investigating further.

Nobody knows, Anyone that promises they know what is after death is bullshitting. My idea of heaven would be that there’s nothing. Imagine going to sleep no dreams no awareness no nothing… sounds like heaven to me but unfortunately…I think there’s definitely something after this.

you can start with a simpler question, what really happens when you are in deep sleep? it happens everyday(almost).

There's no before and after, no here and there and no now and then. There is just this. What that means is timeless boundless, limitless nothing appearing as......whatever it appears as, even death. It doesn't appear as death and then what comes after. 

Say you're in a nightly dream and you dream you got shot and die. When you awake from that dream, what happens after that dream of you dying, nothing; you go grab your cup of coffee and go on with your day realizing you were just dreaming. 

Nothing happens here either because there's no one to die as this is already deep sleep and you will just remain in deep sleep as NOTHING and not appear as the I AM sense which is what's happening with you right now which is not really happening to begin with. It's just a sense of a separate self that has no cause and seems to be felt by the body. It's not really happening.
