The Following was submitted by People Unlimited: There is a lot of debate today about whether or not there is an afterlife. Does the spirit go somewhere when people die? Does the spirit have a life of its own without the body?
The concept of the spirit world stretches back to our primitive ancestors. When archeologists analyzed the hieroglyphics drawn by cave dwellers they discovered that even then human beings were projecting a world where their spirit would go to when they died. So this is definitely not new. Human kind has always looked for immortality in an afterlife because they felt they could not have it while living in this body.
For someone operating in a mortal consciousness, the idea of an afterlife is good news because they believe they are going to die and they do not want to think that that is the end of everything. This is a really hard reality to face, so they believe in an afterlife to make death more palatable.
To me and others who are thinking in an unlimited consciousness, including our community at People Unlimited, the idea of there being no afterlife is an inspiration, because it means that we have to take full responsibility for living now and stopping any death in our bodies. This actually strengthens our immune systems, as well as our resolve to overcome any life and health challenges that may arise. Conversely, the believe in an afterlife weakens the immune system and undermines a person’s emotional wellness and strength to do what it takes to live on and on.
The reality is there is no definitive proof that life after death exists or that someone’s spirit can live on without their body. What we do know is that the body, while it is alive, generates energy that can be scientifically measured. And it makes practical sense that the more alive the cells in the body are, the more energy they produce and project.
If you are a conscious individual you can feel people’s energy. When you take the mystery out of the concept, this energy is what spirit is. When the body dies, spirit or energy, stops being generated, and only the memory of that person lives on, within the imprint that person made on other people who are still alive.
I believe that the memory of everyone who has ever lived is recorded within human genetics and this is why people sometimes believe that they were someone else in a past life, when really they are just picking up on the memory of that person that has been recorded in their own body. Invariably, it seems that these people identify with figures from the past -- like a king or a celebrity -- who are an upgrade from their actual, current existence. So there’s a lot of wishful thinking involved.
If you are planning to stay around long enough to outlive the mortality paradigm, it’s vital to understand that body, mind and spirit are one. If there is no body, there is no energy or spirit coming from that body. Similarly, if there is no energy or spirit being generated in body, if your aliveness is not on the increase all the time, then you’re either dead or one of the walking dead.
When we end the duality between body and spirit and become a whole alive human being, we are then sending messages to the DNA to unleash the body’s full potential for health, abundance and on-going rejuvenation. It’s then that we can truly experience the potent individuals that we are meant to be, who have the power over sickness, ageing and death.James Strole is the author of several books.
