Most every culture believes in some kind of life after death, to some it is "the crossing over' to others just a continuation of what we are here on earth.
What do you believe , ?
And why ?

I am a part of the God source in which I shall return for further instructions. I believe we are here to experience all for God..lessons to learn to become more spiritual (whether it be finished in physical death or into the next). Can't buy into concept of "Religious", punishing and unjust Father but one of total love!! Why?? 'Cause it makes more sense to me.

I believe because of God's Word. When I die my soul will leave the body and return to God who gave it. The body return to the ground from which it came. Ecclesiastes 12: 7 Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. 2 Corinthians 5: 8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

I believe the bible.
A new body that will never die. Life in perfect existence with God. No pain, death, hatred, fear or sickness - ever again.
A beautiful existence in the presence of Jesus. A new heaven and new earth to explore for eternity and plenty of interesting people to meet who have lived throughout the ages.

I will continue to live, in another form and maybe another place. My life now is a continuation of my past lives, and my death is only the beginning of a new life. I may incarnate as another person or just live in the world of the spirits.

I believe that Heaven awaits Christ followers, because that is what he promised us. When Jesus was on the cross two other criminals were hanging beside him.
Luke 23:40-43 But the other criminal protested, "Don't you fear God even when you are dying? We deserve to die for our evil deeds, but this man hasn't done anything wrong." Then he said "Jesus, remember me when you come into your Kingdom." And Jesus replied, "I assure you, TODAY you will be with me in paradise."

More life just like now and until perfection is gained, then the change will come. God's ideas are not subject to the death process.

If you die or are killed. and you are a Christian, a True Christian, not one who claims to be Christ-like yet their deeds are evil, but True Christian will sleep until His Return, they will arise out of the grave with a glorified body ( not flesh and blood ). Those who die or are killed and are not Christians, will have yet another chance to accept Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord, because that is mercy of God.
In His Holy and Precious Name, Jesus Christ

Nothing. That's it. We're dead.
This is what I believe because I have seen no pressing evidence that there is anything else to expect. Thus, I expect nothing.

To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.
