Life After Death

There are two fundamentally different types of views on the afterlife: empirical views based on observation and religious views based on faith.

* The first type of claims are loosely based on observations and conjecture made by humans or instruments (for example a radio or a voice recorder, which are used in electronic voice phenomena, or EVP). These observations are made from reincarnation research, near death experiences, out-of-body experiences, astral projection, EVP, mediumship, various forms of photography et cetera. Academic inquiry into such phenomena can be broken down roughly into two categories: psychical research generally focuses on case studies, interviews, and field reports, while scientific parapsychology relates to strictly laboratory research.
* The second type are based on a form of faith, usually faith in the stories that are told by ancestors or faith in religious books like the Bible, the Qur'an, the Talmud, the Vedas, the Tripitaka et cetera. This article is mainly about this second type.

What happens when we're dead? Do we travel into another dimension or are we completely gone? In many religion we believe that there's this Afterlife or Reincarnation after death. I know, it's confusing you... It confuses me as well, I have many thoughts about the Afterlife.


Now if there's a Dead, who collects the spirits recently left their bodies and wonder alone in our world knowing we can't see them. How do I see this?

I know there's a lot of questions that needed to be answered, and we all just have to believe in the Bible or Koran or Talmud etc. Based on the religion we have. But for all of you that is not-religion-type-kind-of-guy or an ateist more precisely, how do you see the life after death?

The Eden is one of my favourites. Many people wants to go to Eden when they are dead, I want to go there as well. If Angels exist so does Eden as well. Angel Raphael visits Eden, according to Milton's Paradise Lost [John Martin, 1825]. I was touched by the poem John Milton's Paradise Lost, so amazing he wrote. So dramatic he wrote. See it for yourself:

"So spake the false dissembler unperceivd;
For neither Man nor Angel can discern Hypocrisie,
the onely evil that walks Invisible,
except to God alone,
By his permissive will,
through Heav'n and Earth:
Satan bowing low,
As to superior Spirits is wont in Heaven,
Where honour due and reverence none neglects,
Took leave, and toward the coast of Earth beneath,
Down from th' Ecliptic,
sped with hop'd success,
Throws his steep flight in many an Aerie wheele,
Nor staid, till on Niphates top he lights."

Sincerely
