If we didn’t think about life after death, it could have a profound impact on our consciousness and the way we experience life.
Anxiety comes into consciousness when very young children are introduced to the folklore of Santa Clause. Santa is a legendary figure who brings gifts to well-behaved children and coal to naughty children during the Christmas season. It is the first time we start to feel anxiety about a fictitious situation and to self monitor our behavior for presents.
The next contrivance to bring anxiety to our consciousness as young children is religion and the afterlife.
The afterlife is introduced to us from our earliest days. It becomes the first idea implemented into our brain to condition us to feel anxiety and modify our behavior.
Even though these fables appear irrational and without facts, we have been conditioned from our earliest recollection to trust that it happened and is true.
We don’t know what happens after death for the reason that there isn’t any case of anyone coming back after death to explain it.
However, there are millions of people following faith without facts. Just superstition with a hint of imagination.
At one time, the mythology of the Greek Gods ruled the faith of the people. Great stories but as fact, they were and still are improbable.
Rather than worrying about the after life, just live and enjoy your life. When the electricity ceases in your body, you’ll discover what’s next or maybe not.
