Before my grandpa died he said out loud "look an angel"

@MellowEd The forum angels are on their way to guide this topic to its heavenly abode.

The reason its like it was written by one author is because it was edited by one author. It can't be like that without editing. 2 people never have the same story 12 people can't.

I was onced pulled out of my body by an angel who talked to me in angelic tounge. It was beautiful and I understood what it was saying. One word had the meaning of like 3 sentences.

It's impossible for me to say the words that were spoken as they do not exist in any mans vocabulary.

@UnbornTao @Natasha Tori Maru I think you guys are a bit abusing your mod position. You can guide him in a gentle way. No need to roast his head with insults and offensive languages.

That's fair, but I don't see where I insulted him or was offensive. My post might have come off as blunt or rude, though. It's true that I wanted to destroy his commitment to fantastical thinking, so I figured I'd give it a shot.

Mixed views probably another dream or maybe when you die the avatar is dropped and fuse with oneness like ecstasy

This one is not AI generated. His tour of Paradise is wild : )

 

Not a fantasy brother i have been dead and seen the other side. The afterlife is more real than this life.

 In what ways is it real? You yourself admitted in your first post that this belongs to the realm of belief - and that's accurate. It's only "real" insofar as it is imagined to be. It may seem real as a result of how your mind interprets and makes sense of circumstances. The sensory input gets filtered through all kinds of thought-forms, like preference and presumption. This same principle may apply to many areas of life, but it stands out especially with consciously adopted beliefs.

If you're labeling it afterlife, then that's still more "life." Obviously you haven't died, since you're writing here. Without taking that for granted - what is life? Maybe you were never alive in the first place. There's a lot to uncover there.

But your thinking here is sloppy. It lacks rigor, objectivity, and groundedness. Actually contemplate your experience, setting aside stories, preferences, and unnecessary concepts.

It's a subjective state. Were substances involved? Can you see how the mind can fabricate entire worlds that aren't objectively occurring? With some effort, I could make myself believe almost anything I wanted, but that would essentially be lying to myself, which is radically different in nature from an honest inquiry.

Fundamentally, what happens after death is unknown to everyone alive. And notice: being alive, we also don't truly know what life is - nor the self, the mind, or experience, for that matter. Your stance is founded on a complex matrix of unconscious assumptions.

What did you experience? What is it that you hope to accomplish by engaging in this pursuit?

You were a bit unfairly targeted I think

I am happy to wear responsibility as I was going for laughs with colourful language. I don't actually think there was any abuse of the mod position. As moderators we are allowed to have views and ideas. And I happen to have a lot of overlap with your views and dissecting users beliefs. The mod tag is a coincidence. But something to watch for as this can be misunderstood.

In my defence I roasted the ideas/beliefs, there wasn't any namecalling. Crop dusting of sarcasm here and there...

Its good to attack the position. If he reacts with an attack and cant admit that what hes saying can only be witnessed by a first person experience, you are good to call it crazy. The person needs to know you cant go around telling people about angelic experiences without being scrutinized and they have to admit that it cant be a logical fact between two people unless the two people agree.

If you answer to logic with a mystical happening you are being dumb.

You can point to an aspect of qualia with a story but you cant answer questions with non logical experiences.

Like answering a question Did you film it or record it in your phone ?]

with Why would a demons expose itself?

is insanity. You need to logically argue with you didnt film or record it. Like I didnt have my phone, or it was scary and I didnt think or I did and it didnt expose itseld. Not some made up bs like why would it expose itself?

Appreciate it, I share that sentiment. Dogmatic thinking is clearly not my thing either.
