What Really Happens When You Die?

What happens when you die? Some people think there is an afterlife. In the world today, few mysteries remain as inexplicable as death, a subject that has perplexed and divided our society for thousands of years. Some cultures and religions describe an afterlife where souls pass between ethereal realms, while others conceive of death as little more than a sudden drop into nothingness. Almost universally, death is a great unknown awaiting all living things at the end of existence. So what really happens when you die?

I think the worst thing is the loss of memories and experiences. I never really thought about that aspect of death, but yea it’s pretty sad. Also thanks for bringing up Hinduism, it’s so often overlooked unfortunately

No one can know for sure until their time comes. I'm not in a rush to find out.

[ASZaidan]

It really freaks me out. To think you fall into nothing and that’s it. 😢

I think when we die, it won't bother us. The same way, when we weren't alive yet: It didn't bother us neither.

As someone that works in hospice care

As Keanu Reeves said when asked what happens to us when we die - all we really ever know is “those who love us, will miss us.”

[Goldun-nah]

You transform into back in to all parts of the earth. Into the soil, into the bugs, then into the birds and other animals, into the water, then into the sky, then into the rain, then into the soil again then into crops, then into people. That’s what happens with our bodies. Our consciousness is energy… energy can not be created nor destroyed either… only transformed.

We don't know exactly what happens after death, because it's so damn hard to get an answer from the dead.

"And they say, 'There is not but our worldly life; we die and live and nothing destroys us except time.' And they have of that no knowledge; they are only assuming. And when Our verses are recited to them as clear evidences, their argument is only that they say, 'Bring [back] our forefathers, if you should be truthful.' Say, 'God causes you to live, then causes you to die; then He will assemble you for the Day of Resurrection, about which there is no doubt, ' but most of the people do not know."

- Quran 45:24-26

What if your perception of time slows as you die? Making death feel like an eternity?

[LittleChilz]

If you are afraid of death, you are not the only one. I found out the more you are afraid of death, the more you feel dead. But death is nothing to be afraid of cause we all experienced it before we were born

Koranos, the thing that will make your channel grow more is having ultra unique and interesting topics for videos (not that these topics aren’t already interesting- I just want to see you become successful). You’ve got everything else.

Given all of the weird stuff that happens with quantum mechanics, we don’t even know if we exist the first place and if we don’t, we can’t really die

[julius]

Nature created us once, and will do so again. This could take billions of years or even universes to materialize, but since we are dead, it will happen in an instant. Meaning that whatever your consciousness is, it will continue to experience things essentially forever. So, what happens after you die is that you essentially wake up again, one way or another.

TBH, when we are first made in the womb, that is our world. We might hear the rumblings of the world outside, but that womb is all we know. That existence ends when we are born, and inside the womb, there is nothing where there used to be something. We all had one world end for us and another began. A bigger world that is a lot more complex. More complex than we can comprehend. Perhaps our death in this world is a beginning in another. One so far beyond us that we can even imagine. More complex than this one, perhaps.

Lots of things happen after you die.
It's just that none of it involves you.

We travel beyond known reality and fantasy. Its the greatest journey anyone or anything will do. Death is another dimension just like life is. Some embrace it while others get scared. It ususally differs if you have lived earlier lifes or not. Our spirits / souls have seen and experienced different life times in many different bodies and also have different knollage about life and death and in any life no matter where and when your soul aint allowed to have this understanding to stop confusion and longing for what once was in earlier lifes. But dont be afraid if you are a old soul being reborn many times or a new soul with no experience of this. In the end, you are all welcome to a new transformation and i wish you all good in this life. I know when i have fond memories from a earlier life like many others who sometimes try to break these rules by telling me about it. I was here earlier in another state of being around in the past, present and future. ❤️

I think it´s just like before you was born, before you existed. An eternity can pass in the blink of an eye. I mean for how long did we not existed before we were born. That´s right. The infinte with an ending.
