I don't have the guts to think about death very often. It is inconceivable to me. My mind isn't capable of processing what would mean for me not to exist. However, I do want to believe there is a life after death. After all, if there wasn't, then life itself wouldn't mean anything at all. But it's hard to adopt a belief without actually having any experience of the sorts. I really hope we are not our bodies, cause after all, I base my most important practice (Tai Chi) - and my future profession, on the idea that there is Energy, and this energy implies that we are not just our bodies. I am pretty much convinced energy exists because I can feel it, but in the face of Doubt, I am not convinced enough, especially when someone mentions death...
