"you only live once" is it true?or is there life after death?
552503
The person who you are, will never again exist on this earth.  This is a true statement.  In that sense, you truly do only live once.

Life after death is no longer a life.\nLiving would mean meeting your maker, no 'body' to protect or shield you, imagine your eyes able to see at all angles, no voices from the mouth but the heart. No languages, no hunger to feed. Only the rest of the universe with One God.

Death only pertains to our physical incarnation in this reality.  In truth our souls never die.  They are eternal.  Always were, always will be, just like God.  Read the book Home with God by Neale Donald Walsch.  It offers a hopeful and wonderful message about dying which will take all fear of death away from you forever.

Yes,Of course! According to various religious beliefs, there is definitely a new life after death. The bodies, after death, will be disposed off, but the life in the body, that is the soul, will be born again in another form, either as an animal or a human being again!. there are various instances wherein,some children have spoken of their earlier life with details,as to what he/she was in the previous birth, the location, parents, aquiatances, etc. On physical verification by impartial bodies, these have been found fully factual, and correct.

There is nothing.  Its the same as life was before you were conceived...no thought, no light, no heaven/hell/reincarnation...nothing.\n\nLife ends, and I don't fear this.  I DO fear dying, but not ceasing to be.  Think about it, many religions include life never-ending (with reincarnation or an afterlife), but no one knows for sure.  So, where did this information come from?  Only rumor, speculation, and assumption.  You might as well describe what life is like on Pluto...no one knows.

I'm never really sure I do exist. I wake up and live my life and I do the same thing everyday and I wonder if it's all just a dream and I'm going to wake up and do it again. In my honest opinion, life is not truly worth living in the sense that we are all going to die anyways. Think about it. So we know the wonderful things about physics and we understand gravity, but does it really matter? Not really. It's because we all die in the end. I'm probably just using up the air. But I'll tell you, I'm having a good time of it. I don't know if there is something after this or if when I die I die. And not knowing is scary. I'd rather just live and enjoy because this may be all I get. Whoever I am. Below is something I wrote that more clearly explains my opinion. Or maybe it is just more confusing.

I believe that I will have no afterlife.\n\nOr rather, I believe this: I cannot imagine a god so cruel as to condemn me to an eternally unchanging afterlife. Sure, I can imagine enlightenment that could last a long, long time--it would be interesting to explore the universe and unlock its mysteries, or to reincarnate over and over as different beings, up to a point--but I cannot imagine any existence for eternity without it becoming horrible.\n\nAnd thus, since I cannot believe in a god so cruel, I believe that either there will be no afterlife at all, or there will be no afterlife for the being that I consider to be "me." In other words, if what I become after my death can somehow find fulfillment in an eternal afterlife, then it won't be "me" and therefore not worth worrying about.\n\nI'm young--around 40--but don't see any reason to want an afterlife. I certainly want to not-die in this life, though. I find this life just fine, and would like to experience a lot more of it. I just don't want eternity.

Here's what All About has to say in regards to this subject.\n\n___________\n\nWhat have we learned from life after death experiences? \n\nWe have all heard stories of people who have seemed to be dead - without vital signs for several minutes - only to be revived. Many of these people tell of traveling at high speeds through tunnels or of seeing brilliant white lights or even of coming face to face with God. \n\nThese life after death experiences raise many questions that directly reflect on Christianity - questions like, "What happens when we die?" and "Is it possible to communicate with the dead?" \n\nEven Christian believers disagree on what the Bible says on these matters. Some say those who die fall into a kind of dreamless sleep until Judgment Day. Others say the souls of the dead are immediately subjected either to Heaven or Hell, depending on whether they believe in Jesus. Still others say our souls remain conscious, but exist in a kind of limbo until the Day of Judgment arrives. \n\nLife after death experiences presuppose the soul remains conscious and aware after death. Those who have these experiences often report they retain the ability to see, to hear, to think, to feel - but they are unable to communicate with anyone. While the experience may be confusing, people report they are suffused with joy - partly as the result of being removed from the suffering of the body. \n\nIt is interesting that many life after death experiences are accompanied by a distinct sense of being two people - one physical and one spiritual. And the spiritual being is completely indifferent to the suffering self. \n\nPerhaps this is one reason the Apostle Paul tells us to die to ourselves, putting God ahead of our selfish desires: \n\n"I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me" (Galatians 2:20). \n\nResearchers report that about one in seven of those who are revived in such circumstances report seeing a brilliant light or even beings they interpret as angels, Jesus, or God. Some people report a sense of having their lives "reviewed." \n\nThe effect of the review is often beneficial and may lead some to accept God, others to rededicate themselves to what they perceive as God's purpose for them. \n\nSome Christians have claimed that after-death experiences are beyond the purview of God and are therefore demonic in nature. But it seems unlikely that being subjected to demonic influences would lead so many people to a closer walk with God. \n\nIn Luke 9:50, Jesus is asked by His followers what to do about a man who is casting out demons even though he is not a disciple. Jesus replies, "Do not stop him, for whoever is not against you is for you." \n\nIn fact, for God to be truly omnipotent, He must be in control of these sojourns into death. Perhaps He uses them to direct His people. \n\n\nLife After Death: Why is it Such a Hot Topic?\nLife after death -- Why all the interest? Combine events like September 11th with the demographic phenomenon of the Baby Boom generation reaching its 50’s, and suddenly the reality of death from catastrophe and death from mere old age are upon us in a personal way. \n\nSo, it appears that more and more people are asking the same question that Job asked nearly 4,000 years ago in the Bible: "If a man dies, will he live again?" What could be a more fundamental question of life (and death)? Reincarnation theories are popular in Eastern religions as well as the many New Age variants. It seems people are comfortable with the idea of another chance to return to earth and figure things out or make things right. Some nihilist thinkers believe that death is the absolute end; but contrary to what many might think, most people believe that death is not the end. In some shape or form we go on. \n\nWhen Jesus was talking

Yes I believe in life after death, I also think reincarnation might exist.  I have seen ghosts.

Scientist Claims Proof Of Afterlife\n\nCLEVELAND -- What happens after we die -- do we continue on or is this life the end?  Many of us hope there is an afterlife, and now some Arizona scientists say they have proof through their afterlife experiments.\n\nThere are many people who say they have died and come back to life. They claim to have experienced an afterlife, even if for only a short time.\n\nScientists at The University of Arizona have done extensive research, and say that they have the proof that when we die we continue to live beyond our physical bodies.\n\n"Almost anyone who sees the data says there's something real here," said one of the researchers.\n\nFor more information, click on the link below!

have you been to another a place you have never been before but seem familiar and feels that you have been here before?the best explanation is you were there in your past life.Death is only a transition from one form to another,just like discarding a torn shirt and changing a new one,reincarnation is very true and natural,it is the law of nature.\nYour life today is the result of your Attitude and Choice of the Past\nYour life tomorrow is the result of your Attitude and Choice you made Today

I suspect you know this is true, but you wish it were otherwise.  That is, you don't disagree -- but you'd like to be able to disagree.\n\nI think the statement is completely true.  Death is nothing to the dead -- since they no longer experience anything.  But also, death is nothing to the living:  Since we can only die once and there's absolutely nothing we can do to prevent it, there's nothing to be gained from wondering or worrying about death.

You find it yourself, honey.\n\nBut for me? Be happy, love, experience everything you want to (unless it hurts people) because you only live once.\n\nx

i've thought about it.  I guess we don't know.  Maybe we wake up when we die.  But then to we go to "heaven" or do we wake up in our real life.  If this is all a dream, then have our "past lives" if we really have had past lives, other dreams as well?

in a way yes and no. There is a Heaven where all saved people go, but you do not get reincarnated into something else in this world.

People who have had near death experiences no that consciousness continues after we are clinically dead. Many people have reported floating above their dead body on the operating table and being able to give clear details of what was going on around them, like what the doctors where doing and saying.\n\nWe lived as conscious beings before we obtained physical bodies here on earth and we will continue to live as conscious beings after our physical body dies.

Ok your question makes no sense, but is interesting. There is more to life after death than a "hereafter." There's a heaven and hell, and yes, both are real.\nI'm sorry for you that you don't believe in the God I know. I don't worry about my life because I know I'm taken care of.
