I think, the moment we die i.e the heart stops beating and breathing ceases, the body is devoid of oxygen and glucose. So all the cellular functions (factories and machines) which depend on these chemicals, stop and disintegrate. It just shows how we are a complex synchronised combination of...

I would call that god, 'Nature' an expression of energy of some sort. It will be impossible for man to conceive it, its purpose (if there is one) and its relation to humans and animals. Scriptures of all shape and forms, I think, is man's interpretation of imagination, observation and...

There is nothing wrong with choosing that concept either. Both will lead us to the same outcome. Infact, I don't think there is a need to change. Continue with your beliefs which make you feel comfortable.

Yes. (without bias from scriptures and preconditioning) Even if there is something beyond, there is no way of knowing it. That does not stop us from imagination. There seems no need for life beyond this. Although, there is a strong survival need. We seem to be preoccupied by a grand...

Faith in God/Religion is non-essential for survival. Hope of existence of something grand, spiritual, eternal, permanence, enlightenment again is non-essential. But, I also accept that its impossible to be completely free from faith and hope. These are thoughts and one cannot be free from...

I changed from being a believer to non-believer. This was a new experience. Free from the clutches of faith, fear, hope and desire. In fact, I have done more good things now, than when I had a belief and faith in God and religion.

So, there was nothing before Big Bang Then Big Bang from nothing. Then gravity formed which in turn gave shape to galaxies etc... And my mere chance the ash or smoke combined in different permutations and formed DNA and life That life evolved to form humans with a thinking brain That...

I saw the scientists were Euphoric on inventing a new theory to explain the origins of Big Bang ..or something like that. This used to fascinate me for a long time. I then realised the futility of this. What does one want to prove and what does one do by knowing the answers? It's either Big...

This is my take on the subject of morality: Is there morality in nature i.e outside the human mind? I don't think so. Morality concept is within the human psyche. Is the subjective morality absolute? No it's relative. To suit our survival. Let me share an example. I was born in a family...

1. Why is that question important or asked at all. 2. There is no way to answer or know it for certain.

I hope I will be able to tell those living what actually happens after death. I am sure they won't believe me if I don't say what they want to listen. Welcome Quirkybird

What you call greed, hatred are essential ingredients for survival in nature. Without greed or hatred human kind will be eradicated in no time! We may not want to try it either. If at all humans have 'advanced' over other animals in nature is due to his greed and competition for survival...

You said it right.. The fear of getting burned leads to trust and faith. The desire to live and fear of death, I think, is the origin of faith, belief and trust. There is, I suppose, no other way out.

'no proof to be had?' Would you believe me if I said I am the reincarnation of 'Aristotle' and after my death in my previous life, I went to heaven, met God. I am sure you won't because I am not so convincing, you will ask for proof?

Thanks-didnt have to read volumes of different scriptures! to know this simple fact. Why is it then it is made such a complex subject and a state difficult to acheive? So you are saying all that animal behaviour and emotions which humans possess should be discarded, not transiently but...

I am not surprised by your answer, in fact, I was expecting this. 'Beyond human comprehension' is the usual escape answer I have always found even from the spiritually advanced. So, one doesn't comprehend during his lifetime and after death one is not really sure what happens. How...

So, firstly I am conscious. Your description of leprechaun will associate him with my memory of similar thing which I have come across before ( hat, apron etc). But if you tell something which is not in my memory box then it's impossible to conceive. So I have created a imagination which I have...

What does man do differently in this next level nirvana?

...and What happens when one joins God?
