How did you feel before you were born? How did you feel 100 years ago? Most of you will not be able to answer that.
You felt nothing. We can’t even comprehend nothing. No pain, no worries, no pressures of life or anger or hate.
When we die, there could be a few things that could happen. We could go to another place and be with our families and loved ones. We could be reincarnated and live life as a new person, or there could be nothing. Worst case scenario, we could experience nothingness when we pass. No hurt, bad memories, regret or any other emotion we experience in this life.
For anyone who doesn’t have faith, the thought of death can be quite scary. Death is as natural as birth and should be nothing to fear.
Some believe that this life is a journey, and lessons are to be made before we go to the next level. If we don’t learn the lessons we need to learn, such as compassion, humanity and kindness, we could be reincarnated again and again until we do learn. If we do learn, and get to a higher level of authenticity, then we could stay in the afterlife.
There have been many reports of people who have died, been resuscitated, and have had experiences of the afterlife. Some people will say that they truly can’t be dead because once you are dead, you are dead. The problem with that argument, is that some have been pronounced dead for a period of time where there has been no brain activity, and with the current understanding of science, this should not be possible. One such case is Dr Mary Neal, she was under water for 30 minutes after a kayak accident. She had an experience where she had an outer body experience and met her loved ones. She has written a book about her experience called To Heaven and back and has done numerous interviews about her experience. You can view her Ted Talk on YouTube
There are others (mostly children), that can remember things from their previous lives and can tell stories and give facts that they could not possibly know. Some have even visited family members from their previous life, and the family members can confirm that these children could not have known things without being their deceased family member.
It Is very strange that some report going to places where their loved ones are, then others report past lives. One theory is that some who have had tragic endings or have not fulfilled their full potential in life, can come back to relearn or accomplish their goals that are intended for them.
Whatever our outcome, while we are on this planet, we should try to be the best we can, to ourselves and others. The world we live in is full of struggles and battles and it is how we deal with them that is important. Aiming to become stronger, wiser and more compassionate human beings from our struggles and sufferings in life.
Love and light
