" A millionaire has plenty of money and is, in fact, rolling in wealth. His end is nearing. He is undergoing great suffering. All his relatives surrounding him are restless. In fact, they are weeping. Exactly in that moment, wisdom dawns on him. He is reminded of Adi Sankara's verse:
Punarapi jananam punarapi maranam,
Punarapi janani jathare sayanam.
Oh Lord!
I am caught up in this cycle of birth and death.
Time and again, I experience the agony of
being in the mother's womb.
He has realised the fact that all his relatives and friends care for him as long as he was alive. He felt very sorry for his pitiable state and wailed, "My dear ones! All that I have earned during my life has been handed over to you. Even the palatial buildings and big mansions that I have built have been handed over to you. My bank deposits have also been given away to you. Yet, you do not care to think about me and are worried about your own future."
True. People are worried only about wealth and property as long as they live in this world. They do not think at all about what will happen to the life principle after their death. As long as there is life-force in the body, people are deluded to think, "It is my body, my mind, etc." "

I have never noticed or get in touch with a man or woman who has gained a Life after Death. However, I believe in Life after Death, because I am not going to lose anything due to that

Yes. I wish I had my Bible close by and I would give the scripture. Try typing life after death on the web search. Make sure it says what scripture says.....not just someones thoughts.
When Jesus came up out of the tomb, it was a symbol of our lives after death. Theres many other scriptures. Also read the last 2-3 chapters of Revelation.

Death is just the beginning of life we are all down here learning. Its like going to school for how ever long you live and when you die you start your real lift.

i dont know so much as life after death but i do believe that when we die we do all go somewhere whether it be a good or bad place i do think something becomes of us. i mean noone can really explain why we are here anyways. i mean honestly you cant explain it noone can no matter how hard they try. so why would we just go into the ground?

ABSOLUTELY!!! there is no doubt in my mind that there is life after death. death is the open door to the other side. heaven or hell. with what we choose to do with our lives now will determine what will happen to us after we die. however there is a verse somewhere in the bible that states work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. it all depends on our walk with God in this life.
