Default What is your spirit after you die. And why?

How do you define your spirit when you die?
How can this spirit have any kind of Consciousness?
What would be the point in being just a disembodied spirt?
Why not just reincarnate?
Why not just go back into the ONE?

The same way you do when you're alive.

Rest from physical life, and assimilation of those life experiences.

We must digest the truths we ingest, before we can accept more.

Because if you are infinite, you can't experience the sublime joy of expansion.

I don't get the idea that we need time to digest truths about life. Time is a human perception from being alive. Surely you couldnt feel any perception of time when your dead?

You don't experience physical time when you are dead, but you *DO* experience subjective time. Most people don't realize this, but there is an ethereal cycle and a physical cycle and they must be balanced.

The amount of "subjective time" you experience on Earth, is balanced by a equal amount of subjective time in the spirit world. In other words, the amount of experience gained is equal in both scenarios. But that is NOT to be confused with physical time. For example, the second someone dies in this frame their ENTIRE ethereal cycle of experience could be completed instantaneously from OUR perspective, but from their perspective, it was equal to the time they spent on Earth or relatively close.

Also, contemplate what "time" is. Isn't it really just a factor of "change"? If there were no change, how would you measure time?

So the point is, you don't stop changing when you die, so there is still a perception of time. Only when you reach a state of consciousness where there is no longer any change (the absolute), will time cease to exist as an experiential mechanism.

What do you base this theory on?

A wide variety of channelings, and/or hypnotic regressions into the so called superconscious state, and it agrees with my personal logic and intuition.

I'm not claiming absolute knowledge here, just sharing what I've learned, and what truths I've gleaned from my own research on the subject, which is just my personal perspective at this particular point in time.

Spirit is space! You are that space.

You are what contains everything you are aware of. Thus you are awareness itself.
