The question was asked by @mary-a-goetsch, member of our YATU forum. Thank you Mary!

Question:

“Regardless of what is fundamental (be it consciousness or matter/energy), the real question is if individual human consciousness survives intact after death.

Someone with wealth and also wishful thinking might be inclined to invest in a cryonics contract with a bio-medical company that offers whole-body freezing and also “head-only.”

One might believe they could resist joining the collective consciousness by resurrecting themselves as the individual they were before death. On the other hand, reason should tell consumers that if the ultimate reality IS spirit, then there is certainly no need to try to live forever. What are your thoughts on this?”

I welcome your comments!

Love,
Deepak
