true facts. adventure time is the best (or second best) cartoon on TV. I've been "there and back again" and regained my shit and yeeeeeah no. Everything is in your mind.
Couple of thoughts here. Everyone has different blood sugar, body fluids, etc so it's not a good thing to assume that we all react to psychotropics or hypnosis or meditation, etc..the same. Our internal organs produce drugs that make us function. Whether you've taken recreational drugs or medicinal drugs or partaken in some Amazonian tribal ritual for some spiritual quest, we don't have all these answers. It's safe to assume that certain drugs when injested enhance one's perception of anything, reality or fantasy or paranormal. The same drug that gives one person a sense of bliss can put someone else into a psychotic episode. That being said, we can only communicate our own truths based on experience, the rest is pure conjecture. As for being able to see elements in the world that our eyes don't normally see, I suggest visiting the Reuben M. Fleet space museum in San Diego sometime and checking out the cloud chamber where the lighting makes the atoms visible as they pass through your body and the energy from your fingertips and abdomen shooting out like flames. It's a great display of modern day technology. As for people who lived centuries ago being simple minded, I'd put Ben Franklin and Thomas Jefferson's knowledge of science, linguistics and literature against any world leader of the modern era...these guys knew more at 20 years of age than most of us will aquire in a lifetime. My 2 cents
Despite what some people/religions think, nobody knows for sure what comes after death. Just accept the fact that we don't have a damn clue. That being said though, personally- and this is 100% my opinion- but I feel whatever happens, it's not going to be that bad. When we fear/don't know something, most of us automatically assume the worst, but the worst virtually never ends up actually being the case. I would be absolutely stunned if something like hell, eternal darkness, or some other terrible sounding fate is what ultimately happens. There's a scientific explanation out there somewhere (in my opinion), but we're still probably a very long way from discovering/learning it.
3D objects experience time as the 4th dimension. Multi-D afterlife entities experience their time as their multi-D space passes through their next-higher dimension. Change in the afterlife is very slow, like an iceberg world.
Came across this the other day -- an interesting take from scientist Robert Lanza: http://www.collective-evolution.com...ics-just-prove-the-existence-of-an-afterlife/
When I used to ask this question, I asked it in a way, what do I remember before I was born? Nothing. But this is all part of the challenge of living as a christian. He's not give it up for you. You are going to have to earn your salvation through 'faith' in him. The mere fact tha I'm here right now. Tells me that yes. I will be around after I'm dead.
This is the afterlife, this is heaven. Look at how rare and amazing life is, the beauty around us and people think there's something more? or better?
In India children have been born in the north and for no logical reason, been able to speak a southern language not spoken in their village as toddlers, etc...the Dalai Lama claims to be a product of reincarnation. History is full of examples. I'm an agnostic by nature but find reincarnation to be more interesting than the alternatives so why not project that possibility in my lifetime? I like the Taoist philosophy most of all. Lao Tsu was a wise man. He didn't subscribe to dogma nor tolerate organized religious practice. The unknown is facinating and sometimes the questions are ultimately more interesting than the "so called" answers. Sometimes it's better or rather freer, not to know. I've been in places for the first time in this lifetime that seemed so familiar and I've learned languages I'd never heard so easily that it made me wonder.
After seeing all those ghost tv shows on A&E, I kinda want to stay around and scare the shit out of people for teh lolz.
Could very well be true but like all recorded history, you either trust the records or you don't..that's a choice. I think language coming from an unschooled village child and reported in the news is information you can debate or accept as a possibility. Like I said, I don't know the answer to this topic nor do any other humans who've never died and returned with proof via scientific method. Again when folks want to debunk theories or folk tales or myths or even propoganda they are relying on the tools we have to process the information and the unknown factors will always seem to lack credibility in a debate. We can only understand what we can see, hear, touch, smell, etc but we may be severly limited in terms of senses having only 5 on paper and 6 in the paranormal realm
How is this any different? [video=youtube;D-Rt56n-vC4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-Rt56n-vC4[/video]
Bump! I came across this on Reddit: Listening to interpretations is one thing but to blatantly troll people like this is, well, expected - He sells EVP apps (It sweeps through radio waves at a fraction of a second).
