When people die, do they lose their consciousness? I really can't grasp that when we die, we lose our thinking, It's mindfucking me right now. Please no religious PoV's.

Please no religious PoV's.[/quote] to answer that you would have to know what consciousness actually is, does it have a physical form or is it purely electrical / some other form we don't yet know of (what we call "spiritual" now). We know for sure that when you die you're body weight doesn't change so it has to be something that has no mass to it (before anyone says it, talking about directly after death, we all know eventually your body decays). This is one of those questions we will have to wait for an answer for a long while. You can form your own but from a scientific point of view we, as of yet, have no way of testing.
i think of it as sleeping and not dreaming(or not remembering) good thing we get some dmt out of dieing
I've had this debate with myself and friends a heap of times. And without your brain, which stays with your body when you die, you cannot remember anything and you cannot use the senses which tell you so much now. So it sort of makes everything here seem a little bit hollow for me. But I always hope that we will absorb information on totally different dimensions post-death.
It's not that hard to comprehend. Try thinking backwards past your birth. Thinking about death is the same idea, just a whole lot scarier.
going back to a previous point i thought your soul/conscience whatever you would like to call it, was meant to be the 21grams you lose once dead!!! Confirmation please????
"WOAAAAAHH WHAT WAS THAT? damn that was like a total head rush huh i cant see. can't breath I can't...holy shit i think im dead. AHHH OH GOD OH GOD THATS FUCKED UP MAN THATS FUCKED UP ok ok ok OK NOT OK WHAT THE FUCK IM DEAD IM DEAD IM DEAD IM DEe- huh this is it? just a mind thing? no heaven no nothin? well thats pretty suck. what the hell im gonna do for...ever? well shit. maybe i could like figure out all the answers in that no one could figure out! but then what'll i do?! i'll just sit, or be or...just there. nothing? ... ... ah shit"
Have you ever fallen asleep without experiencing any dreams? My guess is it's like that. You no longer exist; you cease to function. You are as before you were born. You are nothing.
[quote='/ul\l9l-l0\/3;8451588]When I don't have a dream, it feels like I wake up one second after falling asleep.[/quote] Which is why you don't remember anything. It was nothingness. That blank space between you falling asleep and waking up is how it's like when you're dead. Nothingness. ( which is my theory anyway)
