LIFE (After
Death)
WERE YOU
AWARE OF LIFE BEFORE YOU WERE BORN?
WILL YOU BE
AWARE OF LIFE CONTINUING AFTER YOUR DEATH?
On the
face of it these are two stupid questions but if your answer is 'Yes to
either question then read no further for this theory is not for
you.
If you have got this far let me
begin to explain that there is life after death, not from any religious
point of view (you shouldn't be here now because you would have
answered yes to the original 2nd question) nor from any re-incarnation
theory's; but life after death is a certain certainty.
I asked the first question 'WERE YOU AWARE OF LIFE BEFORE YOU WERE BORN?'
for a reason. Of course no one can remember that, but obviously there
was life before you.
Just as my second question, WILL YOU BE AWARE OF LIFE CONTINUING AFTER YOUR
DEATH? Again you will not be in a position to be aware of
life but equally, as we all must agree, life on Earth will still carry
on long after you and I are dead.
Let
me ask you a further (on the face of it stupid)
question. 'CAN YOU REMEMBER HOW LONG IT TOOK
FOR LIFE TO GET TO THIS STAGE?' No of course you can't. I
ask these questions because I want to instill in you of that vast
amount of time before you were born and the just as vast times to come
after your death: And time, as Einstein has said, is relevant.
Relevant to some other event. Just as the time before your birth, and
the time after you are dead, is irrelevant to your rebirth.
I
do not want to bore any learned reader but to fully understand my
belief it is now important to explain a little basic physics, very
basically.
All
scientists now agree that the universe started with the 'Big Bang'. When all the matter of the
universe was concentrated in one position, when all the atoms were
situated in a place relative to all the other atoms. (I realize that there are many differing types of
matter in the universe but I have over simplified the word atom/s and
particles, to mean each and every type and particle of matter.)
It is important to retain this image of all the atoms/particles of the
universe being in a certain position relative to all the other
atoms/particles because we will be coming back to this point later.
Where were we? Yes, atoms or all the
particles of matter were in a certain place at the time the universe,
for want of a better word, exploded. At this point all matter began to
move away from the centre, all at the same time. This fact is
recognition of when time began. Even to this day all matter is
still travelling at a tremendous speed, in an outward direction from
the point of the 'Big Bang'. In fact it is being proved that the
initial outward speed is decreasing due to some unexplained force and
should, in theory, at some time come to a stop or even implode.
Scientists
cannot exactly confirm the age of the universe but most agree that the
figure is between 10 and 15 billion years old and for Earth to reach
the stage in where it's now. (Wikipedia quotes
it as 13.7 billion years old) It will probably take even longer
before the universe reaches its outer limits but what matter? We will
not be around to be aware of it's change. It matters not. The time
before our birth and the ensuing time after are as the blink of an eye,
it did not matter then nor will it matter again. But one of three
things will happen to the universe of the future.
(1.) The matter
will slow down enough for gravity to reverse the effect and time and
matter will begin to implode upon it's self.
(2.) It will rebound from its
outer limits and again implode upon its self.
(3.) The 3rd
theory is that if the universe is shaped like a Taurus (a doe-nut
shape) then in whatever direction matter travels it will always return
to it's original position.
I am aware of the chaos theory
but it is only chaos because man cannot mathematically calculate it,
yet.
When man can predict and
calculate chao/.,s and randomness he will be god. That is very unlikely
to happen.
The
point I am trying to make is that all matter is journeying back (or forward) to whence it came, back to it's
exact original position prior to the 'Big Bang'. Whichever one of the
above three points is true, and it matters not which one, the fact is
that all the atoms of the universe will eventually end up back in its
exact place it occupied before the last 'Big Bang' I say the last 'Big
Bang' because the Universe has had many 'Big Bang's' and will have many
more.
I read somewhere about 'The
butterfly effect.' My apologies for not quoting who said it, for I
don't know who it was, but what was said was something about a small
change in the Earths atmosphere created by the wings of a butterfly
could result in a hurricane somewhere else.
Cause and effect is the
underpinning of my whole theory. Nay my total belief.
Every event that has ever occurred in the universe has been
the result of another, or other ,event or events.
"For the want of a nail,
the shoe was lost; for the want of a shoe the horse was lost; and for
the want of a horse the rider was lost, being overtaken and slain by
the enemy, all for the want of care about a horseshoe nail."
Benjamin Franklin famous quote exactly describes how a small
minor event can influence greater events and these events influence
other events.
Another apt true event happened in 1997 in New York
On July 13 about 9 p.m.
lightening knocked out electricity in much of New York City, plunging
millions of residents into darkness. Mobs ran amok and started fires
and ransacked retail businesses. Some 4,500 people were arrested
during the riots, and the price tag for the damage was an estimated $61
million and many persons were killed. Around nine months after a very
large number of babies were born because many couples retired to bed
during the blackout. (CNN)
Again the main point I am trying to make is EVERY event,
however trivial, has been influenced by a prior event. Cause and effect.
When
the next 'Big Bang' surely occurs then all mater will re-begin it's
journey outward exactly as before. All because all matter will be in
exactly the same place then all events will happen again exactly as
before. In fact we have been born and died countless number of times
before but we didn't know it, nor will we ever know it.
The
time between death and birth is but a blink of an eye. Time will begin
again exactly as it has many times before. Cause and effect will mean
that eventually the Universe and Earth will be re-formed, life will
begin, you will be born again and will die exactly as before. Time and
time again will the universe begin and end and you will be in it. You
cannot remember life before death nor will you remember life after
death, all you can be aware of is this moment in time.
IF THIS IS
NOT LIFE AFTER DEATH THEN I KNOW NOT WHAT IS.
