Closer To Truth

Күн бұрын

Almost all religions promise eternal life. In one form or another, the message goes forth that death is not final. But each religion paints its own portrait of the hereafter: some are collective and ethereal in the spirit, others individual and corporeal in the body. Which would you choose? (Your opinion means nothing, of course.) Featuring interviews with Richard Swinburne, J.P. Moreland, Seyyed Nasr, Varadaraja Raman, and Huston Smith.

If you think some part of yourself will live forever, what part will that be? Your thoughts? But your thoughts are different every minute, you don't even remember the thoughts you were having last week, much less those you had before you started the first grade. What is that "you" that has thoughts and memories and posseses a mind? Just a vague but stubbornly persistent sense of "me"-ness? When you are absorbed in concentration or some task like art you forget yourself. You don't even know what exists right now let alone what might live forever.

I would say you are YOU, What YOU have become in the mind, in the person, in the character just before you take your last breath and close your eyes from this world! That would be YOU! That would be WE, all of us!! The CHOICE to alter your mind, your person, and your character would come to an end in this world of DUALITY! You will then enter into a dimension where alteration will not be possible, the singularity. There will be no beginning or no end. You will progress ONLY in what you have already BECOME in this present world of DUALITY, where everything is created in PAIRS and has its counterpart. And this anticipated world of SINGULARITY, where things are not paired, have no counterpart and therefore alteration would not be possible, and it would be an ETERNITY, with no beginning and no end! It would be Steady and Continuous Progression in the CHOICE that you had already made in this world. I would suggest here, therefore, to make the choice of the kind of person you would be happy with in this world, that you wouldn't want to change ever before you leave this world! 😀😀😀😀

I understand the reasons for covering this, but I surely don't put any stock into any of their opinions. I have opinions too, I just don't go around telling people my opinion is god's word.

Robert Lawrence Kuhn: said: "I cannot imagine going to sleep and never waking up." We are all one egotistical or vain thought away from accepting our death. Yet we all go to sleep each night, which is losing everything we are conscious of in our waking life. Our consciousness of a self, our bed, our house, our jobs, all our possessions and loved ones. We've been practicing dying every night as the world loses it's shape and form. 1/3 our our lives is spent in sleep. Yet we are immortal and we only descended into the limitations and boundaries of mortality for the experience, the drama and the contrast.

I always enjoy Robert Lawrence Kuhn and his “journey to get closer to truth.” Robert often qualifies metaphysical discussions with “it has to 'make sense.'” But, what if what we now consider "making sense" isn't so limited in a next life? That simply means being open to the idea that what doesn't seem to make sense now may make sense then. We have to at least allow for that possibility and not use that rationale to disqualify what are otherwise coherent positions. This particular topic, however, is unique in that it involves mysteries we can't possibly understand from our present perspective. It's similar to the fact that when we were children, you and I (and Robert) could not "make sense" of the thoughts, the wisdom, the decisions, the experience of adults. But that doesn't make them any less real. The next life (or, as Robert puts it, “if there is a next life”) must be, at the very least, very unlike this one. How unlike it, we can't know. The apostle Paul, quoting the prophet Isaiah, said “eye has not seen nor has ear heard nor has it entered into the minds of men what God has in store for those who love Him.” The likelihood that we can't presently imagine the experience of a next life makes abundant sense to me.

Open the mind you may find that you have an intelligence that these people have that they would even ask such questions. Unless you feel you have no soul. Need to work on that. For if you find that you believe in a religion then there's a gigantic problem of afterlife called judgement. But we are all human and our little bitty brains might not be able to comprehend what is asked or have an Imagination that truly intelligent people have that makes them extremely smart. But of course I never hear a truly smart person say out loud that they are really, really, really smart. Those people aren't smart if they have to say it. Thus is where a question, basically the same question asked of educated intelligent people that have studied and read about the subject in question. Personally I think He'll is for people that need to be scared into being a good person. When I think of those that wrote our Bibles that humans explained to others in a simple way for humankind to understand. Pleasure is life eternal. No self gratification as we are in the self first existence. If you don't understand then why listen to the questions. It's a feeling as intuition that derp inside we are knowing yet content that understanding completely will come when we have passed this physical existence. I seem to understand so much more such as quantum physics as an example. I am not expert not educated but all my life I've had a Knowing. Yet listening to others answers gives me more proof every day that earthly religions are very simple and teach as though we are all I. Preschool. I enjoy the questions. As these questions are and have been using n the back of my mind my whole life.

Theologically, God created, His creation figured out how to write books, so He inspired one of his creations to write one book in particular. Historically, it was a collection of anecdotes, myths, legends, and parables that had been around for thousands of years, that somebody finally collected and wrote down once the ability to read started becoming more common.

You don't. Religion, naturally, has outdated descriptions of God/Creator. So the tendency among the religious (especially as science emerged & evolved) was to set camp in the general 'creator' space, i.e 'intelligent designer' (something that's easier to defend) and THEN draw parallels back to their respective, very specific Gods.

@@bobbabai .. the simple fact is that truth is truth - it stands alone and does not need consensus of opinions that may all be wrong. Not everyone has access to truth because some are wilfully blind to it and others seek to distort and misrepresent it. Without supernatural intervention humankind left to its own devices will steadily sink to the lowest common denominator, hence, the wars, greed and corruption and lack of political agreement and compromise. An historical document accurately foretold the attitude prevalent among people of the 'last days' - 2 Timothy 3:1-4 This same document consisting of 66 books has been used in courts of law as a guarantee by means of conscience and oath for a witness to testify truthfully, yet this same collection of books has been the target for ridicule and criticism by a self-appointed collective ascribing to 'higher' learning and 'critical' thinking preferring their own glory rather than acknowledging the One who created all things and gives truth in abundance to those who sincerely seek it.

The only way life after death could be scientifically explained is for this universe (U1) to have a twin universe (U2) such that each particle in U1 universe is Quantum Entangled with its corresponding particle in U2 universe. Through this entanglement, all the events and information from U1 universe are passed to U2 universe in real time and when a person dies in U1 universe, his/her twin in U2 universe is unentangled from U1 universe and can start phase 2 of his/her life. This process shall continue till the person reaches the absolute universe.

The overall trouble with old speakers here is that they all appear to be scientifically prove something on the basis of belief rather than tangible evidence. And regarding afterlife the representatives here simply carry the basic tenets and rhetoric of their respective religions to afterlife which renders these interpretations merely political statements because these are the very claims used to control masses by the major religions and obviously not just abrahamic ones. Christianity simply transfers the sense of guilt to afterlife by simply suggesting that will have physical bodies and all sorts of biological functions but not sexuality. This is very much along the lines of the Catholic tradition that we only have sex to reproduce. On the other hand the conventional rhetoric of Islam contradicts this by saying that we will have quite a promiscuous lifestyle in the afterlife where the maths doesn't seem to make sense given the 1/72 ratio and this essentially reflects the semi-concealed materialistic nature of mainstream Islam. The very last comments make whole lot more sense by referring to afterlife as a mysterious mode of existence which we can only feel but cannot prove to exist

Glad you interviewed Huston Smith. I wanted a Christian take that sounded more plausible. “The dew drop that allows the ocean into it” (or something close to that). Other considerations - why is there something rather than nothing now? And from a different angle, is the time space continuum itself eternal? Of course I hope (and most of the time believe) that there is something rather than nothing beyond this life, but the best you can do is give a metaphor with plausible hints. Anything too descriptive just sounds hokey. Our minds simply can’t conceive it.

Robert Lawrence, you are an eternal seeker, but I don't think anyone really knows the truth of all creation. We are all only human beings. Scientists have just theories, ideas, thoughts, nothing else, just like the rest of us in this planet. Philosophy is beautiful and enchanting, but that is all. Like life, there's a secret hidden. I believe in a Creator Force, mysterious and magnificent. I belive that this universal Force is the Giver of the breath of life. We will encounter Him after we leave our bodies, I believe. Why don't you just accept It? Live your life, practice kindness and compassion for you are a gift of that compassionate One in the universe. Your videos are nice to watch, but I ask you, what else do you want from HIM?

Well the Hindi guy stole my thunder . But put in another way, eternal life is right now, the universe we experience is eternal so therefore our connection with it is eternal. We will always be aware that we are aware Which supersedes the limits of the flesh and ends up in an eternal regression and eternal progression. And so after the flesh is gone the universe will look the same but just from the perspective of hyper awareness, hyper expansion

Of course speculation is the only way we can think of it at all. If there is nothing at all then there is nothing and we cease to exist period even in Spirit. But I do not believe the afterlife or say after death of the physical life that we become ceaseless. We are not past being a human. The difference we have from animals is the ability to think and ask such questions. Easy to look at eternity as an existence that is just like what we have right now. We have a lot you. Learn yet. As I've said previously we are still in preschool. It's those that waste our time talking about things they may never get at all, and more than likely if religious you hold your beliefs as a right to judge all others. Which is self-righteous. I don't want to be like that I want to. Learn. Why ammo reading the comments? Curiosity of Psychology and why humans are acting the way they are considering it's the 21st Century. Seems easier to regress back 50 years and act like the Beaver asking his older brother a question. That is what I feel people have decided to to act like these days. Easy to listen and believe even when what you makes no sense. I always question. Everyone dislikes the way I think for myself. But if I didn't I wouldn't have the happiness I have had because I would be convinced that hell would be my eternity.

Eternal life is about infinite hapiness. Infinite pleasure. Of course humans do not know what that means. The difficulty in conceiving eternity is linked to the difficulty in conceiving the “glorious body” and its strange properties. For example: the idea that having all the time involves the risk of boredom. But this presumes limitations that are human characteristics but not properties of the “glorious body”. Let's look at an experience that leads us to annoyance: If we hear a song we like and listen to it again, what happens? The first auditions involve pleasure. But, as we continue the repetition, the pleasure begins to diminish and after a certain point, we begin to feel bored and want to turn off the device. Now the “glorious body” doesn't know what boredom is and listening to a song that you like always gives you the same pleasure, regardless of the possibly astronomical number of times you repeat that listening. This is so because the “glorious body” was designed for eternity unlike the human body. Of course there are many other differences, but that would make the comment too long.

It’s really fascinating to explore the ideas of immortality presented by world religions. In the judo-Islamic tradition, I believe as mentioned in Torah and Quran the resurrection is like an exhaustive reconstruction of each of our individual physical body. It has something to do with present day cosmology.A physical body can be exhaustively defined by inverse of it’s entropy ie the more our body particles diffuse,the more we contribute to the increase of entropy of the the universe.As the thermodynamic aero of time reverses the entropy of any sub system will retrace its individual entropy throughout the whole evolution of it’s cosmic journey.Thereby attaining it’s physical resurrection of individual body to assume the same entropy as at the time of internment or before. It will continue it’s cosmic journey until it reunites with its origin to be able to enter the newly evolving universe where the entropy would be constant ( ie eternal)

In Islam, the idea of spirit differs from all other contemporary religions.The Islamic equivalent of spirit do not mean any immaterial entity.The most obvious verse in Quran about the spirit (ruh in Arabic) claims it to be a set or array of God’s command. If we recall the biological phenomena of our birth it becomes apparent that as soon as our parent’s chromosomes cross over ,a very large number of chemically coded commands start coming from our parent’s genes to construct the foetus.This set or array of commands may have been referred in Quran as ruh or spirit.It’s like a mathematical operator a matrix with billions of elements,when enacts on proportioned building materials,produces living beings.There is nothing abstract or immaterial in Islamic faith.Quran in essence describes the physics of everything,not unreal metaphysics.

One unnerving aspect of this video is that even though no one whose body was in fact dead and decaying has ever seen a cohort of zombies crawl out if their graves. And yet the subjects of body and spirit are discussed as if there actually were souls or spirits. Everyone advocating soul or spirit are offering nothing that anyone could be confident of. Such discussions are a waste of time if one is really seeking truth(s). Also, there's a big difference between believing and knowing unless one is sufficiently confused to think knowledge (I.e. 'knowing) and belief are the same when they are not. Next, it is far more unlikely having a physical body that survives all time than even the idea if there being a supernatural creator. Reason, (and they know it) Matter is and always will be an imperfect thing. Matter changes all the time, it mutates into other forms, it's subject to the physical laws of nature, material things 'age', they break down, even combine to make a thing new, etc. But in every case they are all temporary. So claiming physical bodies will live forever completely ignores the nature of physicality.

It is a long playing technicolor film of the high quality of a Hollywood film and on that film is a record of every thing we do in this lifetime. He can review that record and channel information to Humans here on earth that can enable them to solve crimes and all sort of events. He can look into the past and future of everyone on earth and use it for good and solve crimes and map peoples destiny. I have a problem with some people refusing to believe this.

We, as individuals, are who we are because we only live for so long, and it's based on our knowledge and biological drives. Even then, you are not the same person at 60 as you were at 16, and you will definitely not be the same person in 100,000 years as you became by 60. But can you imagine living for 1,000 years? How about 100,000? And 100,000,000? And 100,000,000,000? What about 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000? This cannot be fathomed, and this still isn't eternity. To say by this time you wouldn't be an entirely different thing, and to say by this time you wouldn't exhaust your simple human desires, is absurd and shallow wishful thinking.

To elaborate, say there was some god that made it so you never got bored, as boredom is just a state of not feeling interest in something. This would then change the meaning of boredom, and the concept of "freedom" (which some of these people believe in). If this God could simply remove your boredom, then you could literally do the same task over and over, or stare at a wall, and not be bored. You wouldn't need to have the option to do "endless" things. But I bet this situation doesn't sound enticing to these hopeful theists.

@@fparent That was the entitlement of my point. However, if a god created the nature of humans such that we become bored, we were forced to experience that boredom. And we are forced to feel the desire for the things that relieve our boredom. We don't choose our interests, they just occur to us based on our natural inclinations which are from our nature which was forced upon us by this alleged "God". There isn't any freedom in that anyway.

no escape, is a much more useful way to think about "eternal life", helps define the purpose of life. Doing life badly, hurts. We don’t want that, especially not forever.
