What Happens After Death, and Are There Scientific or Spiritual Theories? - #15258
I recently started wondering about what happens after death, and I realized that different cultures, religions, and even science have different explanations. But is there any real understanding of what happens after we die? Some religious beliefs describe an afterlife, reincarnation, or spiritual realms, while science focuses on biological processes like decomposition. What are the major spiritual and scientific perspectives on what happens after death? I also read about near-death experiences (NDEs) where people report seeing a bright light, feeling peace, or even encountering deceased loved ones. Are these experiences real, or could they be explained by brain activity shutting down? Does Ayurveda or other ancient traditions have a perspective on what happens after death? I read that Vedic texts describe the journey of the soul (Atman) and karma’s role in rebirth—what does this mean? If anyone has ever studied what happens after death, what theories or experiences resonate most with you?
