life ends with death.....
there are a lot of theories about death and what happens after that.
lot of religions lot of faiths... have from ancient times argued that there is life after death... but logic and science contradicts that...
some believe that man is just a biological creature and death ends them all.
but some people else argue that during the course of our life we develop a level of consciousness with the help of the activities that we perform.... and then when we die we loose our physical self and physical existence .... but still after that we retain that consciousness.
Developing your consciousness will give you the tools to understand life and death much better, which will help you decide how to live as intelligently as possible.
Developing your consciousness will help you escape pain and create tremendous pleasure for yourself, so if you ultimately go to oblivion, at least you'll fully enjoy your life along the way. It will also help you transcend the fear of death.
If you die and find yourself frozen in a certain state of consciousness, it probably won't be so bad because you'll have developed your consciousness as much as possible while you lived. You'll have done the best you can to prepare for this possibility.
If you die and find that you're able to continue developing your consciousness after death, then your human existence will have given you a great head start. And if I get there first, you'll immediately be able to subscribe to the feed for "Personal Development for Dead People," and we'll continue growing together as spirits in the ether. Won't that be fun?
Developing your consciousness will ultimately cause you to live in such a manner that raises the awareness of other people around you, helping to transform the world into a better place for everyone. So this is in fact the best way to live if you wish to be of service to all of humanity.
and there is lot more to this.....
The ancient Egyptians’ attitude towards death was influenced by their belief in immortality. They regarded death as a temporary interruption, rather than the cessation of life. To ensure the continuity of life after death, people paid homage to the gods, both during and after their life on earth. When they died, they were mummified so the soul would return to the body, giving it breath and life. Household equipment and food and drink were placed on offering tables outside the tomb's burial chamber to provide for the person's needs in the afterworld. Written funerary texts consisting of spells or prayers were also included to assist the dead on their way to the afterworld.
so these all theories put forth there were different views in the different religions , faiths, sects... etc.
so what do you think about all these that i have mentioned. what are your views regarding all these thoughts...and i am eagerly awating your valuable views.
have a good day.

these contradictions, theories, beliefs, faiths, arguments, counter arguments.... they may say something but what i believe is that some things of us really does persist.
our thoughts that we have expressed to others, that we have worked upon and made them true, our works our deeds do persist.
