I have to disagree with a previous respondent who said, "What do you remember before you were born? Well that is exactly what it will be like after you die."  Has he been dead already?  How does he know?  I THINK -- although no one can know for sure -- that we will certainly know when we're dead.  When you ask about experiencing the world around us, you're automatically asking about the afterlife, with some interplay with religious beliefs -- there's no separating one from the other.  Because I believe there's an afterlife, I also believe that we will experience the world around us, but on another plane.  Certainly we'll be able to interact after death, but primarily and most directly with those who have already died as well.

there is a lot of researches going on about this topic "life after death".people have different beliefs but one can know what really happens only if one dies!its a mystery again and no one can tell exactly what happens.biologically,death happens when the body functions stops due to any reason for that matter and then there is no life in the person who is dead.just gone forever.it need not be necessary that he/she has to go somewhere (hell or heaven) after dead.people create myths like these:if u do good deed during the course of your life,u will reach the heaven(the place of God) and would be treated well,and if u do evil things , u will reach the hell where the devil would torture u etc.....all these myths are created only to make people do good things and be good.but i think there is no such thing as life after death.i believe in science so lets see what science has to say about this in the coming future...........

did it ever occur to anyone that what they believe will happen to them? i mean, if an atheist thinks that when they die, that's it, then that is probably what will happen to them. i'm just saying, if i die believing i'm gonna be a frog in my next life, it's MY belief, so it will be MY idea of the afterlife or heaven. it's the same as christians interpritation of heaven. some people think it's gonna be angels in diapers playing harps others think it's gonna be one big kegger...it's all depending on what you believe.

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

one would know once they're near death

yes! A REALISTIC HONEST PERSON ON THIS GD DAMND SITE! my aunt died a few years ago and was dead for a while. she came back and said she saw nothing as well. but ask anyone else in my family, and she saw a miraculous light with angels reaching out to her. i guess the fact THAT YOU WERE BROUGHT BACK TO LIFE isn't a big enough "miracle." now you have to lie!

wow that is some story.  but i dont believe in spirits ( ghosts ). i think those are imaginary and in your head. now about that guy who slept in the room after there was a murder in there, i cant explain that. he might believe in ghosts and maybe had it in his head that there was something wrong. \nbut i dont believe in ghosts and these stories that people tell about ghosts and spirits are like made up stories from their heads or minds i should say.\ni am a christian and i dont believe that after someone dies that it could be possible for their spirit to stay on earth and haunt others. i believe that either your spirit goes to Heaven or Hell and your body stay on earth.\ni do believe in Angels. we all have a gaurdian angel that is always around us.\ni really dont know what to say about your story. i think it sounds freaky in someway and also made up. not by you, but maybe by the guy who slept in that bed after the murder.\nwho knows.

I would guess No...\n\nThis is because once your dead, your tissues, muscles, nerves , and organs aren't functioning.\n\nThis could be true if it were a couple seconds after his death... because it would be closely remniscent to a story where someones head got chopped off, andd he could see his own body from the ground. And that is a true stroy since your nerves in your head continue to funmction for a couple of seconds more...\n\n~LG23~

Nobody knows for sure, and if they tell you they do, they are lying, are on drugs, or have been hit in the head really hard. There are those who have been supposedly brought back from the dead and relate all sorts of heavenly situations, but I am still doubtful. Why worry about such things anyway? Live your life one day at a time and think about now, not before and not after as that is all that matters.

Your question assumes that I have a life now.  People keep telling me to get a life, so I might have a problem answering you. :-P\n\nSeriously, whether you believe there is life after death depends on what you believe about religion.  If there is a God, then there is a good chance that we have a soul that survives after death.  If there is no God, then it's less certain.\n\nIt's hard to tell whether there is a spiritual world around and beyond us that we can't see.  Despite a lot of testing, no scientist has ever found a ghost, or confirmed a miracle.  But, there are many stories told by people whose bodies have died for a short time and then been brought back to life by doctors.  All of these people tell the same story, even though they've never met.  They all went through a sort of tunnel of light, moving upward to a place of great peace and joy.  Some describe reaching that place briefly and encountering God.  If you are interested in these "near-death experiences," I recommend that you read the work of Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, who took down many such stories.\n\nYou also have to take into account all of the reports of miracles and visions that people have experienced throughout history, and continue to experience today.  Scientists have found non-spiritual explanations for some of these things, but not all of them.  They all point toward the existence of God (or many gods), and many of the visions describe an afterlife.\n\nYour question leads to another important question: Since we do not know for certain whether there is an afterlife, how should we live in this life?  Should we live in the way we think is "good," even if it's sometimes hard; or should we go ahead and do whatever we want to do?\n\nThe brilliant French mathematician, Blaise Pascal, looked at your question hundreds of years ago.  He came up with a solution, which is known as "Pascal's Wager."  ("Wager" is another word for "bet.")  Pascal, who was a Christian, believed that the Bible contained God's advice for how to live.  He figured that if there was a God, then God's advice for how to live must be "good."  He also figured that, if there was no God, then there probably was no afterlife, either.\n\nHe said: "Okay.  Let's say that I live my life in a good way.  If there is no afterlife, then my life on Earth will be okay, but uncomfortable at times.  If there is an afterlife, then I will go to Heaven.\n\n"Now, let's say that I don't live in a good way.  If there is no afterlife, then I've had an okay life with no discomfort, because I've done whatever I wanted to do.  But if there is an afterlife, then I will go to Hell.\n\n"So, if I live a good life, the best thing that can happen is that I'll go to Heaven.  At worst, I'll have an okay life with some pains in the butt.  If I live a 'bad' life, the very best thing that can happen is an okay life with no pains in the butt.  At worst, I'll go to Hell.\n\n"No matter what, if I'm good I'll come out way better, or at worst only a little worse-off, than I will if I'm bad.  So, I'll be good."\n\nThat's how Blaise Pascal figured out that, regardless of whether there's an afterlife, it's better to live according to a set of good rules than to go around doing whatever you want.  People all around the world still follow his advice today.

Depends on who you talk to. Honestly I dont think anyone knows. People say heaven and hell but not one person can prove what happens after you die, I dont care WHO they are!

I don't believe that human souls roam the earth after a person dies but I do believe in angels and spirits because the Bible says that they exist. The extra-biblical book of Enos says that evil spirits are here from the time mentioned in Genesis 6 where fallen angels took the daughters of men to be wives and when their offspring died there was no place found for them in Heaven or in Hell and so they are doomed to wander the earth.

I personally believe that we are reincarnated and there are others in the universe...others don't believe because they are narrow minded and scared, they could also be young souls that don't have much experience.

Yes, I believe in them & most people I know claim to have encounters as well.  \nSpirits do have to draw on energy, which is why lights can flicker or short out when they appear. When they cannot draw enough energy, you may only see a partial apparition, or the ectoplasm only.\n\nAs for the question on clothing, a spirit is said either to wear what they were wearing at the time of their death, or another theory is that when you die you are able to choose what form you wish to take (IE: most taking the form in whih they appeared at their best).

I believe that we are. I have talked to several people who had near death experiences and all of them  told me that they seen their dead loved ones in a bright light. They told me when trying to walk into the light, their love ones told them it wasn't their time, and they woke up inside their own body again.

no they are not useles b'coz they act as \n1.diamonds on the dark ocean\n2.they lead the sailors to the right way\n3.sometimes when u feel sad u can look at the stars then u surely feel relaxed.\n              Scientificaly stars are huge balls of gases and are part of universe.\n              Astronomicaly stars have a very important role in life as all the zodic signs are depended on them.\n              Yes, stars have life, not like us,they take birth and dies but it takes a lot of time you cannot experience this.u can ask this from anybody who studies physics
