He tries to prove after-life existence by using an analogy with an imaginary medical procedure. I don’t think that’s logically supportable. The nature of time is at the heart of this. Imagine at the moment of “death”, that consciousness begins to fade but we live on perhaps for five or ten minutes to true, final death. To those around you as you die, five or ten minutes has passed but to you an infinite expanse of “non-time” has begun and will never end.

@redredred The fact that it's imaginary is beside the point though, the point being that within a reality that is truly infinite in every way it would only be a matter of time, whether that time be a second or a trillion years, before the pattern that makes up what constitutes a sentient, conscious person, would reappear, and do so an infinite number of times (reincarnation?), and from the subjective perspective of the person undergoing "renewal" every length of time would be the same; i.e. of no duration whatsoever.

Try reading Bhagwat Gita.
Don't read it with the mindset of it as a religious book.

@Royricky09 Even though it's a religious text? I've read some of it, but I didn't really know what was going on, it being a story about some warrior called Arjuna if my memory is correct.

Consciousness is truly a mystery bit im sure of one thing. It does not die but goes on forever. Ìm not sure why it takes on a life form as fĺesh and blood perhaps it is only an illusion
