The SR model holds there is no real death - all things have arisen in the One Consciousness, therefore it will return to that consciousness. Nothing dies, nothing is born. This all just appears to happen.

Everyone is an
individual and everyone is an
individual forever.

Heretical ideas, but can be shown;
Quiet your mind,
really quiet it and then examine this thought;
Ask yourself how
old are you?
(How "old" are
You,
not your physical body.)
How many
years "old" are
you ?
When were
you born?
When will
you cease (DIE) to exist?
These questions, which become nonsensical, will give you the answer.

Then realize, every individual 'I AM' can do the above thought-experiment to themselves.
Exist-ence is far more magical &
stranger then we can imagine.
