Hallo!

Here is my controversial input, in case anybody is interested: I think the question is "Do you wish for an afterlife?"

Because most people would want to live forever, extend their lives as they know them, or otherwise come back one way or another, we tend to forget that, for many people, living is pure hell. If you ask them whether they want unending life, eternity, reincarnation or whatever, they will probably answer something like "please, just burn me and be done with it".

Even for many people whose lives are not particularly good or bad, like me or my family, an eternal life or many life cycles holds no appeal, or at least no more than mere eternal oblivion.

I realize that most religions emphasize afterlife as a sort of bonus or prize for their believers and it must be quite effective. I do not wish to be disrespectful, I am glad many of you have that wish for you and your loved ones. I just want to add that many of us wish no more than an empty void, nothingness or whatever for ourselves and ours. I miss my pets, too, and they live on in my memory for as long as I am here, but I doubt another life is what we need. I would much rather not have to "go back to school", if possible.  

So I ask pirbid, who are the mediums and psychic here communicating with, if there is no continuous life?

Azhar:  What a wonderful, enlightening experience!  We just know so much more when we commune with spirit!

God bless, J

I do not pretend to know anything, as you all seem to do. I am only talking of what I wish for myself. Not being a psychic myself, I am free to happily hope for a good deal of nothingness after my own death. Who mediums communicate with, I have never had the slightest idea: as long as they know, that should be enough.

And I am used to my ideas being far from welcome, having gotten into these topics for as long as I can remember. I remember people looking pityingly on me, and me wondering what it was all about. I realize that if I just kept quiet on the subject, your peace of mind would not be disturbed, but then I would have to spend my whole life avoiding all sorts of topics, so why bother talking at all?

However, in case you are wondering, no offense was meant, even if some people never give a thought about offending those who do not think as they do.  

Each one has got his/her own experience and knowledge of life i think.And they are right in their own way.

My input to this is: i believe life and death form part of a cycle. Everything is a cycle and through this cycle there is the word evolution(both physically and spiritually).Evolution is the process going on during a cycle.

An experience can be a cycle.An idea can be a cycle.A relationship can be a cycle.The water cycle is a great example.the water travels through the river,waterpipe... goes to the sea to be evaporated in form of clouds goes back to inland to fall again in rivers,lakes.But each time the same drop of water does not travel the same path as it did before.

Our life also is going through that cycle.we are born,experience life(bad or good) and then at some point the body dies to again take birth again to experience new things going through another process of evolution differently.After each cycle the soul comes out differently ready to experience something else.

I do believe in life after death. And I think  I will see my loved ones again. Even so, I just can't seem t let go of them in this life. Any thoughts or ideas?
