Default Are physical reality is like a dream. What if we dont wake up after are physical body

Okay.

So.

you can have a dream and in the dream you can die. like the character that is playing you in the dream.
But when that happens, that doesnt mean you will wake up.
Is this what being a spirit being is?
Its still part of the dream, your just not physical?
Then one day you wake up from the dream completely and you know all the stuff about spirt beings was wrong. Even us in spirit form wasnt real. It was just part of the dream

The dream body does not die but it is capable of a make-belief type of death. The physical body however will die undoubtedly.
The dream body is the subtle body and it is just energy like in particle physics. Even in physics it is said that no type of energy can really be created or destroyed. The energy is just reformulated in a different configuration. If you can accept the subtle body as a combination of your mental and emotional energies, then you can visualize that perhaps that energy cannot be destroyed., Even if that part of the self no longer has a physical body to express itself through, it would still continue existing and would assume some other type of configuration in the process of time.

Yep. The spirit world is yet another dream. A more harmonized version of the dream. Death does not bring enlightenment, only a change of scenery.

The final wake up is called Nirvana, and is a state of complete peace and infinite awareness.

Or it could be the other way around. When the body dies you wake up as the spirit and realize that all of the stuff in the material world was a dream.

Depends by what you mean "physics".

If by physics, you mean limitations imposed on an otherwise unbounded essence, then I would say yes.

Limitations are necessary in order to empower creativity. They are not bad. In fact they can be quite fun. They give things their "flavor" or character.

Its like a video game. Video games have certain rules, and actions that may be performed in the game universe. Its like another reality. Its sets up a challenge, its fun to play through that challenge.

When you type in the cheat codes, its fun for awhile, but you lose the challenge, which was the real fun all along.

So the spirit world and physical world are different parts of the same game, with different rules governing the different "levels".

Its all experience, its all for challenge, and its all for fun.

It's a test, a game, and a journey all in one.
