Non-consciousness

philosopher004 August 29, 2020 at 02:13 2100 views 5 comments
I do not believe in an after life.I believe that after we die we just float in the void of 'non-consciousness'
I call it non- consciousness and not unconsciousness for a special reason:When someone is rendered as unconscious by you it is done by comparing your own state of so called consciousness with the others state of unconsciousness.But in the realm of non consciousness their is no rendering.In simple words its just unconsciousness on a large scale.But I still shouldn't use unconsciousness because it is not rendered by anyone.

What is your take on this.

Well, I would've thought the state unconsciousness is something only a previously conscious entity can enter into. So, for example, the two of us, conscious beings, can become unconscious. By non-conscious people generally refer to things that were never conscious in the first place like rocks for example.

Perhaps after we stop existing, we turn into energy or something physical. I think unconsciousness is just a change of mode, also if consciousness happened once it probably will happen again,we got unlimited time, and possibilities, and i think the process will repeat it infinite amount of times.

I would like eternal life, so perhaps I wish I could turn into God, or some powerful being.

That's something we all have to find out, preferably later than sooner. I wonder why?
