Once that is accepted, one can then realize a sense of peace and returning home. Forget about the "what if's" and the pretty, sweet wrappers around the latest self-fulfillment teachings. There is nothing new under the sun.
Isn't God just a label for understanding? We all want to know how we got here, why we're here and where we're going, isn't that why we search for something outside of us to give us clarity of purpose?

I wonder if we are so powerful that even when your physical body dies your belief system while here will continue on. Maybe christens will go to heaven, maybe muslims will go where they believe, me I'm off to consciousness

Only faith can change, god can't die.
