Is There Life After Death?

 Life after death is one of the main questions religious people think about as their various religions showcase their version of heaven.

I am not going to talk about the various versions and whether I think they are true or not.  I'm going to talk about what I think happens when you die and the fact I can think of such an idea is very thrilling to me.

I wrote years ago that Dark Energy could be where our conscious energy transfers to when the physical body dies, which seemed plausible.

What I surmised was that if the secret of the universe is to transfer energy into different states, like potential energy changing to kinetic energy. Energy has transferred from one state to another. I then thought of Newton's Laws of Thermodynamics. Now I am not a scientist, so I am not going to start trying to explain something very complex. I will look a fool.

The Second Law of Thermodynamics talks about entropy and for example, the energy in the form of heat dispersing from a cup of coffee.  Simply put, entropy is the disorganisation of energy like a cup falling off a table and smashing on the floor.

Now my mind might not be scientific, but it can see patterns and connections as many people's minds do.  I use entropy in the brain at the physical level. Energy is flowing through the brain, making connections that make the brain create intelligence, memory, imagination and the synaptic nerves are like electronic pathways to connect information.  If you have ever seen a map of the universe, the cosmic web, it will remind you of the patterns in a brain.  On Earth genius minds who created the internet have made a human-made version of an Earth-sized brain. It may not look the same, but it has the same process using energy to make connections.

I feel that transferring energy from one state to another, making connections, creating a Googleplex of different creations, ideas, universes, you name it.

So the question - is there life after death boils down to what happens to the brains energy once it has made this connection and is there a way of saving the conscious.  Perhaps through entropy. 

This thought process brings me to Dark Energy and what it is and what it might be.  Perhaps its an incorrect name and it's not energy at all, it something we are not at this time intelligent enough to understand (which is the most likely reason).  However, it could be energy, and the fact it is expanding is due to the transference using the entropy of energy from one type to another.  It also could be the excess energy from matter is syphoned off from the planet and turns into dark energy.  The excess energy could mean that a form of life exists in the dark energy, and it comes from every part of the matter in the universe.

An example will be if you look at a person through thermal goggles, you can see the energy leaving the body in the form of heat.  Perhaps if you looked at the body through a different energy spectrum, we could see brain energy leaving the body and transferring to dark energy.  I do not know what it could be.  Perhaps the energy mixes into different multi-universes within the dark energy, and the reason it is expanding is because energy is slowly, very slowly, from our perspective, changing matter into energy.  The change through entropy causes dark energy to expand the universe, and the reason it is so fast as we look through our telescopes is that we see every universe and there could be an infinite amount doing the same thing.

What does this have to do with life after death?  Well, unfortunately, I do not think you will live another life with the memories of this life as they will dissipate throughout different universes.  Nevertheless, that does not mean you will not experience other lives with the same personality, and perhaps small things from your life will stay together. If you think of your present life, you only remember a tiny amount of the information you have received throughout your lifetime.  Nonetheless, at any time information can be recognised and used, in a similar way to me remembering this information I had forgotten or not understood for many years since I wrote it: childhood memories and flashback of events that are clear as day.

Therefore life after death might be possible, but it will be as you are living this life with no knowledge of your past. In my opinion, it does not matter whether you want to remember your life or not, and you should be careful what you wish for, your next life might be worse than the present one.
