Whats your belief?

Question

Personally, i think its alot like before you were born when you die.... pretty much like it doesnt exist. but what are your beliefs, and i would especially like to hear from the people who have no set form of religion and just kind of believe in what they think is right.

Answer 1

You mean afterlife? My philosophy is I'll know for sure when I die. Unless I'm reincarnated. Then I'll probably have random images from my past life.

Answer 2

My belief:
When we are born, our souls are bright and unsoiled.
As we progress through life the soul either stays bright or begins to fade.
Live in a just way, and the soul remains bright with the possiblity of getting brighter, but stray submitting to the worlds foul devices and the soul starts to fade.
Upon death, your soul is taken and judged and depending on the illumination of the soul is determined to be bright or faded.
The worthy souls join the collective spirit in another dimension, while the others fade away.

Live well..

Answer 3

If you live life to it’s fullest and strive for self improvement, you should be prepared for whatever the afterlife might bring. It's not something to worry or be too concerned about.

As far as the afterlife itself goes [Form my understanding of it], there are many, many destinations. There is no “either-or” destination after death. For Asatru, heaven was being with their ancestors after death and Hell (that is the Christian idea of Hell) would have been spending the after life without one's ancestors or Gods.

In Norse mythology when a person dies, their soul embarks on a journey to the realm of Hel, the Goddess of the underworld. It was not uncommon to put “Hel-shoes” on the person’s feet to help them with their journey. Now there’s more then one destination, but first I will explain the most common one, which is Helheim. Think of it as the Norse Underworld and in Jungian psychology it could be represented as the collective unconsciousness. Helheim is not a place of fiery damnation, it is for the most part a place where souls go to rest and rejuvenate. The Goddess Hel does not torture people.

The soul must reach the well of Urd at the bottom of the World Tree where its future will be decided. (Urd is one of the three Norns (weavers of fate), she is in charge of the past.) The Norns are depicted as watering and tending to the World tree. The soul’s past determines its future and its placement in the many layered Norse afterlife. There is no divine judgment like with monotheistic religions, you are judged by your own Self, your conscience. Basically your own mind creates your reality. It can range any where from sunlight meadows decked with flowers to being confined in a venom-soaked cage depending on one’s deeds (this is in reference to Nastrond, “the hall of serpents”). (So in other words, if you are a Christian and you think you deserve to burn in hell…you will; but only because that’s what you are expecting.)


And of course there's the most famous of all destinations, Vahalla! Valhalla is reserved for Odin’s chosen warriors, Einherjar, but keep in mind that Valhalla is not the only hall in Asgard. Depending upon which Gods one devoted themselves to in life, the soul could go to any of the various God or Goddesses’ halls. While the Christian idea of Heaven is signing halleluiah, strumming on harps, and setting on fluffy white clouds… the Heathen “Heaven” is very rowdy in contrast. You are reunited with your kin. There is much feasting and merry-making at night, not too mention during the day battles in which you can never get killed.

Answer 4

Introduction to Bhagavad-gita-As-It-Is, by A.C.Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, Founder-Acharya of ISKCON(International Society for Krishna Consciousness).

Yet man professes to belong to a particular type of faith with reference to particular time and circumstance and thus claims to be a Hindu, Muslim, Christian, Buddhist or any other sect. Such designations are non-sanatana-dharma. A Hindu may change his faith to become a Muslim, or a Muslim may change his faith to become a Hindu, or a Christian may change his faith and so on. But in all circumstances the change of religious faith does not effect the eternal occupation of rendering service to others. The Hindu, Muslim or Christian in all circumstances is servant of someone. Thus, to profess a particular type of sect is not to profess one’s sanatana-dharma. The rendering of service is sanatana-dharma.

Factually we are related to the Supreme Lord in service. The Supreme Lord is the supreme enjoyer, and we living entities are His servitors. We are created for His enjoyment, and if we participate in that eternal enjoyment with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, we become happy. We cannot become happy otherwise. It is not possible to be happy independently, just as no one part of the body can be happy without cooperating with the stomach. It is not possible for the living entity to be happy without rendering transcendental loving service unto the Supreme Lord.
