What is it like to be dead?

"What is it like to be dead?" is a question that is often asked. It is answered in many different ways depending on what people believe at the time. Awaretheory has a very simple answer based on a very complex set of new sciences which are based on, and coherent with, all other sciences based on materialism. The simple answer to the question "What is it like to be dead?" is that it is like what you are experiencing now. This might seem contradictory because being dead is not supposed to be like being alive. If you understand the science behind awaretheory it makes scientific sense. When a material body has the right structure and then is functioning correctly it is producing consciousness. When it no longer has the right structure and functioning it no longer produces consciousness. When a person dies his/her body no longer produces consciousness. If you are not conscious you are not aware of being not conscious. You can only be aware of being conscious. There are different levels of consciousness, some more clear, intense, or aware, than others. It is not like anything to be dead. But his is not the end of the story. Awaretheory predicts that to produce a consciousness that you will experience there has to be the right structure and functioning of matter. There are many reasons to believe that there are a very large amount of different structures and functioning of matter (different itobodies of which human bodies are a type) that will produce different consciousnesses that you will experience whenever they are produced. A body that produced a consciousness that you experienced, could have and probably did exist in the past but is now dead thus no longer producing a consciousness. So in a very real sense you are now the a conscious life after death version of this previously existing person.

(as in a past version of you that had your [[ixperiencitness are dead but yet you are experiencing consciousness produced in another body. So what is it like to be dead? You will not be aware of long periods on not being conscious. If the last body that produced a consciousness that you experience was thousands or even billions of years ago you would not be aware of this passing of time. It will seem like you are always conscious thus it will seem like you are immortal even though each life will be finite in length, and you will consider or fear your body’s mortality in many of these different lives This eliminates many of the problems associated with immortality like bordom, depression, apathy, limited resources, etc. Any part of any consciousness that you have or could have experienced could be repeated any number of times throughout space and time. What you are experiencing right now could have existed any number of times in the past and can exist any number of times in the future. Awaretheory predicts that the consciousness you are experiencing now can be produced in other bodies now as well. If one or more of these bodies die you are still conscious and alive. Again "What is it like to be dead?" it is for sure what you are experiencing now but it also could be a lot more.

Since there are a very large amount of structures and functionings of matter (human or other types of bodies) that will produce a consciousness that you experience when they exist and they can exist independently of each other and at the same time "What is it like to be dead?" can have an answer that is much much more than just what your simple limited current version of yourself is experiencing at this moment! For example, you could experience anything starting at this your current conscious moment that a sensepaducer and enviropaducer can apply to your body. Nature is what is currently producing the enviopath and sensepath that you are currently experiencing. But with enough technology produced in the future AI generated sensepaducers and enviropaducers could produce any physapath thus any imaginable awarepath. But you say when this happens I will be dead so it will not effect me. But your your current awaremoment can be nearly identically duplicated in the future thus you can experience any number of these amazing awarepaths and it will seem like you are experiencing now. There can be even more enhanced conscious versions of you starting at this or any other point in your life. For example, as you are reading this sentence you could be interrupted and told you are going to be enhanced in several ways. You can use your imagination as to who is doing this such as aliens, human scientist with advanced technology, or even some supernatural entities. You can use your imagination as to what they will enhance. They could enhance you body in numerous different ways. Or enhance your ability to learn or enhance the amount of knowledge you have. Memories, skills, abilities, wisdom, senses, new senses. etc., can be added or enhanced in any combination or amount. You might say that ok this might this could happen but It could only happen in the future in another life thus it means nothing to me now. But who is to say that you are not in this future life now. A physapaducer just created the physamoment that you are experiencing right now. There may or may not have been a you experiencing reading this sentence in the past.
