>exposure therapy
cant really expose my self to death more than once, now can i?

Living and death are the same shit, in my opinion.

Death as we perceive it if only a transition into more being. And that is the fucking terrifying part.


I Hate the creator.

i dont think there is one

This question of mortality has haunted me for decades. It caused me to desperately wish for Christianity to be true. But I dunno. It all seems pretty bleak.

>>42534710
One is plenty, you'll get used to it

I stopped being afraid of death when i was like 10 years old

Such a thought brings me peace. Eternal non-existance and rest is a lot better than eternal torture in Hell.

>>42534831
its not "rest" its nothing

Immortality is stored in the balls.
Find a wife.
I know shit's tough. Find one anyways. Take a shower, hit the weights and cut your hair. Unless you're burn-victim tier you can make it happen.
You will reincarnate if you reproduce.

Don't be a dumbass. You were nothingness before your birth. You were nothingness for billions of fucking years maybe more. And yet that didn't stop your dumbass from finding existence somehow and posting this thread.

You literally had the experience of being nothing before and yet you found this life here today. You have the proof right in front of you that nothingness literally doesn't exist by definition and that life is eternal every time you stare are your face in the mirror..

How are you so blind dude? When you die, do you really think you are going to be nothingness forever? Even though you were nothing forever before your birth yet you still found life? You have the proof in front of your face dumbass. OPEN YOUR EYES NIGGA.

>dead forever
God it used to feel so fucking good to think this.
I'd give anything to have your problem.

>>42534966
This, truly we are a forevermore a existing being

>>42535017
explain, you provided zero context

>>42535037
How the fuck could anything stay dead forever? Think about that for a second. Start counting the seconds after you die. When do they stop? Never. All that's ahead of us is eternity, and there's no way in hell that this doesn't happen again. Before this shit I had a potentiality of 1, after I die, it just goes back to 1; A sure thing. The ride never ends, but I wish to god it did.

Nothingness can't exist. The abscence of memory is not nothing. For all you know you were consciouss before this life began but and you just can't recall it.

I don’t know what to tell you, bro. I was like that a few months ago, but now I just feel like consciousness is never-ending and has some metaphysical element.

zero evidence death exists

I AM

is all we know for sure, with absolute certainty

Continuing: It just doesn’t really seem logical to me that consciousness just kind of happens and then goes away. I don’t think the universe came from nothing, so I don’t think consciousness came from nothing either.

I got into panpsychism, not really because I believe it, but because I think it’s a step in the right direction.

>But something is telling me "nope"
Your ego is what is telling you "nope". Your ego is not going to survive death, it cannot fit into where you are going after death, that's why it whines and bitches about death. (You) as a conscious identity will perish forever eternally forever and ever. But notice I say
>Conscious identity
And not
>Consciousness

Your consciousness will survive eternally, untouched by death. The shape your consciousness had grown accustomed to, your idea of (you) will be gone. But that's all. You can and should experience ego death while you live on this earth. Do away with ego altogether and notice how it is to live without ego identity. Then enjoy seamless transition into death and into afterlife with no hangups.

You can still have a name and a face and an address and a title in this life. Just never ever ever identify with any of it as though they were real. The only things that are real are spirit, your body, and nature (shit like trees and mountains and water and the elements) and that's it. Everything else is made up shit from humans. A giant game of play pretend where every player forgot it was play pretend.

Once you lock that remembering down, death stops being spooky. You realize you ain't gonna die forever, your old identity is. But if you kill that off while you live then you lose nothing anyway.

this nigger gets it

>>42535264
so im just born as a different person, with no memory of myself as is?

>>42534695
every time i take a shit, i look in the hyperspace camera and say
"look at what you made me do"
because shame on them i have shit coming out of my ass AND i have to wipe..
and they just sit around watching me
and they watch me while i sleep
and they watch me while i jack off
wtf

>>42534966
i feel like our lunatic souls incarnated from an abstract void of chaos where 'meaning' has no meaning
and we were made to forget about it
existence is actually insane

No clue. What I do know is you will have memory. Memory is not a product of ego. Memory is a product of consciousness. You may not be able to recall the memories in the same way as you would know. You won't make extrapolations or abstractions of calculations or linear reasoning. You will just know, you will just remember without any need of trying to figure things out. Same as how when you look at something and instantly you just know deep down you've seen it before. It's like that, it's just familiarity. Where you feel the memories rather than think of them.

You are already consciousness. Behind the "myself" you think of is your soul, behind your eyes. There's no need to have a memory of yourself when you already always are and always will be. You won't remember this post when your vessel dies. The spirit my words carry, the spirit of critical acknowledgement, you will remember that.

Do you understand? The spirit of things endures. Not the words or the cognitive shit, the spirit of things. Lord of the rings for example, that's gone after you die. The specifics of the story all wiped out. But the spirit of the story, of fellowship, adventure, long-suffering, victory, etc. those all linger forever. Get it?

So when you die, your body and name are gone. Your ego is gone. But the spirit of you, your soul, is forever.

That's not the goal..

>>42535363
It's because we fell. We were on course to becoming like God and things happened and we took a tumble down the void and here we are. We are called to climb up and through the void again to take another shot. God does not want to be the only God, we are called to rejoin and become God#2. One day. After we figure out the lesson of this life. I hope to see you there at the finish line

>>42535345
memory is mostly irrelevant. Look at your child, its 99% identical to you. Or a bird and its child. In every way except memory (which is only relevant to ego as >>42535264 points out) youre the same. Consciousness is a tricky subject but if you go by whats real (the body) then it continues to exist in very similar form. Patterns of thought also persist and give rise to similar experiences. Obviously re-living the same exact life would be possible, and living on forever likewise. But highly similar constructs do live on. Even the ego gets reconstituted to some degree

Bro.. what happens when the mother get to know everything father did.
