The end of afterlife?

[Donatas Kaulinis]

So how about it? Is there an end to the afterlife erin is writing about? And if yes, what is it like? Let's say you die and you do travel to some unknown dimensions or something like that. Why they are like they are? Would anyone in the afterlife know the answer to a question: why is there somethin and not nothing?

Only God can really know the answer to that.

There are situations beyond the afterlife. From our vantage point here right now they are hard to understand, remember, and fathom. One step at a time brother.

Because nothingness cannot exist. If it did, it would be somethingness, which is not nothingness. I know it sounds silly, but there is a deep metaphysical truth to that sentence, if you can learn to see it.

People often assume that at some point there was "nothing" and then at some other point later on there was a big boom of "something", but I don't think it works that way. Nothingness simply cannot exist. Only the illusion of it can be temporarily generated. Everything that has a beginning, eventually has an end. The illusion of "lack of substance" or "nothingness" had a beginning, so it will also have an end.

Consciousness had no beginning, and thus, it will have no end. Because nothingness infinitely does NOT exist, everything infinitely DOES exist... Infinite existence is balanced by infinite non-existence. However, the illusion many people fall into is conceptualizing nothingness as a thing to begin with. It is "no" "thing" "ness" you see.....

You're asking some seriously deep esoteric questions.

Are you appropriately frazzled yet?

How do you know you're not already in the afterlife?
