In my opinion so called "death" is a pathology of collective consciousness, a disease of human minds. Human is God, he MUST Live Forever. His physical body is Sacred, it's the Manifestation of his Soul. If Soul is Immortal, why Body shouldn't be?
Complete freedom? A Man can be free only if he Fights the Entire World. Breaking its goddarned laws. Like Jesus once did. Freedom is inside each human being, not "out there". To feel Free, one shan't run away, he should run in his enemies, Fight and Win. He shan't obey someone's laws, which aren't comfortable to him, he should proclaim and defend His Own Laws. Then he's a true Human, it means God. All the ancient Lords were People. If one isn't a Warrior, he'll be a slave, wherever he hides or tries to escape.
Hmm . . .
I would have to agree that my assumption that all of us will experience entry into an afterlife with the death of our physical body should rightly be questioned. Afterall, it is only my opinion. All evidence I've gathered from my present level of experience existing with what we call physical reality in what we call physical form points in that direction, but it is only my opinion.
It is also my opinion that we are already immortal beings so I see no reason to be too hung up on existence in one reality, say physical, over any other reality. If we are eternal beings I prefer a little variety. As I've often said, living "over there" where the eternal nature of our being can be more "in your face" can probably get a little boring, so, I view my lifetime here in physical reality as a vacation from eternity.
I find your logic regarding "Human is God, he MUST Live Forever. His physical body is Sacred, it's the Manifestation of his Soul. If Soul is Immortal, why Body shouldn't be? " flawless if we assume God is a physical being. But, I don't share the opinion that God is limited to a physical existence. God appears to exist within every where and every when I have explored and I assume God exists far beyond the tiny fraction of existence I've explored. So, using your logic, we humans ought to be capable of the same thing.
When you say, "A Man can be free only if he Fights the Entire World . . . If one isn't a Warrior, he'll be a slave, wherever he hides or tries to escape." I could not disagree with you more.
There is a Chinese proverb that asks the question, If after a journey of a 10,000 miles you begin a fight to the death, what should be your one wish? The proberb's answer is, That you are not the one who made the journey. Fighting the entire world is in itself an enslavement that costs too many their freedom because they are too busy fighting to be free in my opinion. Warriors are, in my opinion, just slaves to the next battle.
I prefer not living in a reality populated entirely by warriiors and slaves. I believe we have other choice available to us. Personally, I would prefer to exist within a reality in which all the inhabitants see it as their duty to never force their will or their beliefs upon any of the other inhabitants. In such a place I live by my law, live and let live, and in doing so I am free to pursue whatever I desire.
