You've done your good deed for the day because you really got me thinking. I think most of us - even religious people - have a fear of dying. Who wouldn't? Isn't it call the "Great Unknown". And not knowing, not having any control over what will happen and the fear that we'll be judged on what we have or haven't accomplished in life is enough to scare anyone. But the question - what do I believe is simplistic....here it is...Yes, I believe there is some existence greater than ours, that we're all moving towards it and will become one with it. In the meanwhile, I worry about the here and now and what effect I'm having on the world and those around me........from being environmentally aware to not being prejudice....from helping others by something as small as opening a door to mentoring an underprivileged young person. When you become 1 with the world in these ways you don't worry about what will happen when we die because what is happening now is just so fantastic.

When I was a kid and had to deal with the death of a pet for the first time, I had questions for my parents. I wanted to know if Ashley the cat went to heaven or not. My folks said no since animals don't have souls. That always troubled me and as I grew older I really had to question that ideaology. I never want to go to a place and be united w/a bunch of a$$holes I never knew and yet not be reunited w/my beloved animals. That's unacceptable and part of what has led me to believe in reincarnation. Apparently, the people (and animals) that we're close to in this life had some part to do with in a previous life. How else can I explain being so attached to my pets? And yes, often times this does seem like hell on earth, and some times it can be heaven too.

It's just the next Step of Life.
Question is: What's behind the door?
People coming back from the dead seem to Peek through the Keyhole, because of that "white Light in a Tunnel" Syndrome.
I don't know for sure, I believe in something between the "next Step" Stargate mentions, an Aether Dimension (they see us, but we don't see them), a Pool of Souls and something else.

Well, life is just preparing us for death I know that...but I'm afraid of death. Yes, you needed to know that. It will help you get a job sometime...here...to quote 'Dazed and Confused';
Cynthia: God, don't you ever feel like everything we do and everything we've been taught is just to service the future?
Tony: Yeah I know, like it's all preparation.
Cynthia: Right. But what are we preparing ourselves for?
Mike: Death.
Tony: Life of the party.
Mike: It's true.
Cynthia: You know, but that's valid because if we are all gonna die anyway shouldn't we be enjoying ourselves now? You know, I'd like to quit thinking of the present, like right now, as some minor insignificant preamble to something else.

Even Einstein believed in an infinite universe there are infinite possibilities. Too say in all this universe there is no supreme being would be illogical. We are beings of energy. According to the laws pf physics. Energy cannot cease. It must transform into a new type of energy.

You(your generation of minds) will rebirth according to what you have done(Karma) in this life(or in previous lives) since you have not attain enlightenment(eternal happiness). If you have done many good deeds you will rebirth in a good place(heaven, human realm). But if you have done many bad deeds you will rebirth in a bad place(Animal realm, evil spit, daemon, hell animal). There is no supernatural being that determines anyone's fate of its own will and everyone is responsible for their own actions and their consequences. I think it is same as Newton's third law of nature. If you have done any of five bad crimes or sins(Anantarika-karma) you will definitely reborn in a hell world. No one even a god can't stop it.
When your last mind(Chuthi Chiththa) vanish from your body(death), your next mind(Prathisandi Chiththa) will start in a new body(birth) but no time delay for this(according to Abhidharma) even if you rebirth in a far away solar system(Isn't this wonderfully? Mind is the most fastest thing. fastest than light).
------------------------------------
* You do good deed, good result return. You do bad deed, bad result returns.(There is Karma)
* Helping or gifting to a virtuous person will return many good deeds than to a normal person.
* There is a life after death.
* There are extraterrestrial worlds (including hells and heavens). Some animals came here after death; some animals go there after death.
* Helping or gifting to mother and father will return many good deeds than to a normal person.
* There are some animals who born instantly from their karma without mother or father(Such as gods)
* Rarely, unusual intelligent men are born. Some of them are becomes monk and concentrate their mind with meditation. Some of them are getting unusual intelligent and will discourse a great teachings saying how to become happy forever (Four Nobel Truths). They are called Buddha’s.

From now on, we will refer to death as our "pre-half-life". Depending upon how we're prepared, we then encounter our physical cellular half-life, and then we slowly leech into our burial substrate until we're assimilated by the ecosystem. I actually think I'd like to fore-go the pine box and just get into the dirt. That's where the action is.
Next, we move on to Kurt Vonnegut's concept of Heaven, taken from Hocus Pocus and God Bless You Dr. Kevorkian: everyone goes there, even Hitler, but they're a little wiser -- fat load of good it does them. It turns out, all there is to do there is wait for everyone else to arrive.

I can't answer your question. It can't be answered. I know this for sure, once you die, all the bad stuff in your life is gone. All the pain and suffering is gone. Death is a part of life. Don't dwell on death. Dwell on living! Think positive!

No one knows for certain. It's possible that one day science will discover what happens, but as of now, science is as in the dark as the rest of us.
