The Soul as An Artist in the Next World

Furthering our discussions about the body and the soul in our previous few articles about our present and next lives in another world, what do gentles readers of mine here think of this possibility? Here's my thoughts. 

The soul of the body will leave his badly damaged physical body (dies) during an incurable disease or in an accident, but the soul being indestructible, does not die of any disease, accident, injuries or trauma. The soul then leaves to another place (another world) to relive another life there. 

The soul is very much like a painter or an artist who leaves his work of art (the physical body) and goes to another place to redo another painting in the body of another person in another world. However, the painter does not forget his previous painting (his body in previous life). If the painter is a bad artist, he is likely to do the same for his next painting (bad karma in the next life). 

Likewise, if he is good artist, he is very likely to paint a good picture (good life) in the next world as good karma begets him. What goes around comes around in circles. His work of art (the physical body) dies, but the artist (the soul) does not. In other words, the soul remembers his works eternally whichever worlds he goes in circles. There are lots of accounts and stories told by people including royalties who seemed to remember their previous lives, who they were. 

Alternatively, he may be rewarded for what he did not have in his previous world, or it may be miserable for the rich for the good life he had in his previous life. 

One example is the rich man and the poor destitute Lazarus as given in the Bible (Luke 16: 19 – 31). However, the story of the rich man and Lazarus provides a narrative on the consequences of one's actions and lifestyle, though it does not explicitly endorse reincarnation. It emphasizes the reversal of fortunes in the afterlife, which can be seen as a metaphor for moral reckoning.

I think this idea is a fascinating and deeply philosophical one, resonating with many religious, spiritual, and metaphysical traditions. This concept posits that the soul is an eternal and indestructible entity, undergoing a cycle of death and rebirth in different bodies across different lifetimes. This view is shared by various belief systems, particularly in Hinduism, Buddhism, and certain interpretations of spiritualism and reincarnation theories.

May I summarize my  ideas here:

Indestructibility of the Soul: Many traditions hold that the soul (or consciousness) is immortal and not subject to physical damage or death. This aligns with my analogy of the artist who moves on to create new works without being destroyed.

Reincarnation and Karma: The idea that the soul reincarnates into new bodies and that the quality of the new life is influenced by the actions (karma) of previous lives is a central tenet in Hinduism and Buddhism. Good deeds may lead to a better rebirth, while bad deeds can result in a less favourable rebirth.

Memory of Past Lives: There are numerous accounts, both anecdotal and studied by researchers, of people claiming to remember past lives. These memories can sometimes be detailed and specific, leading some to believe in the continuity of the soul's experiences across lifetimes.

Moral and Ethical Implications: The belief in karma and reincarnation often carries moral implications, suggesting that our actions in this life will have consequences in future lives. This is similar to the concept of "what goes around comes around" I earlier mentioned.

Philosophical Considerations

The Nature of the Soul: The concept of an eternal soul raises questions about its nature, origin, and purpose. Philosophers and theologians have long debated what constitutes the soul and how it interacts with the physical body.

Continuity of Identity: If the soul retains memories and characteristics from previous lives, it suggests a continuity of identity that transcends individual lifetimes. This challenges our understanding of personal identity and memory.

Ethical Responsibility: The notion of karma implies a system of moral responsibility that extends beyond a single lifetime. This can influence how people perceive their actions and their long-term consequences.

Scientific Perspective:

However as a scientist myself, from the scientific standpoint, the concept of the soul and reincarnation can be controversial to other scientists since science typically relies on empirical evidence and reproducibility, and phenomena like the soul and reincarnation are difficult to study under these criteria. Nevertheless, there have been studies, particularly in the field of parapsychology, that investigate claims of past life memories.

Conclusion:

The idea that the soul is an artist moving from one body to another, carrying the impressions of past lives, is a rich and evocative metaphor. It provides a framework for understanding the continuity of consciousness and the moral dimensions of human existence.

I think different people from different cultures and belief systems may interpret these ideas in various ways, the core concept resonates with many people's intuitive sense of justice, purpose, and the mystery of life and death.

Seek Not Physical Health or Wealth, but Eternal Wisdom for Our Souls

 

A vegan friend of mine who is a medical doctor advises us to be a vegan, and recently gave an example of a business tycoon in this country who became a vegetarian. 

 

This may sound like good advice as far as promoting health and longevity especially for those who are exceedingly rich who may fear disease and death. The wealthy naturally are extremely worried when they die, they must, and have to completely leave behind everything they have - wealth, fame and powers while they still breathe in this world. 

 

Unfortunately, death MUST come to everyone one day, whether we are rich or poor with completely no exception for anyone, notwithstanding we are vegetarians, vegans, meat-eaters, food supplements consumers or patrons, purchasers and customers of medicines and potions for “eternal” health 

 

See here for “magic potions”

See here also the meaning and measurements of health:

 

https://scientificlogic.blogspot.com/2022/10/the-meaning-and-measurements-of-health.html

 

 

Death is the final destiny for all as disease and death is no respecter of any human or any living creature that creeps on the surface of this planet 

 

See the reasons here:

 

The Biology of Aging: Why do we get old and die: 

 

https://sg.docworkspace.com/l/sINyoyYK9AdW4_psG

 

What one need to fear is this verse here: 

 

"And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell" 

(Matthew 10:28)

 

What we need to fear is that our souls are immortal, and they remember everything we do here on earth when the body dies. Here's an example Jesus has warned in Luke. Jesus is sinless and did not lie when he gave the example of the rich man and the poor man called Lazarus when they both died 

 

"There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day.  At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores and longing to eat what fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.

 “The time came when the beggar died, and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried.  

 

In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. So, he called to him, ‘Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.’

 

 “But Abraham replied, ‘Son, REMEMBER that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here, and you are in agony.  And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been set in place, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us."

 

(Luke 16:19-26)

 

Verse 25 in Luke 16 clearly tells us our soul REMEMBERS all that we do and have when we were still in this world. 

 

The soul exists and remembers here:

 

https://scientificlogic.blogspot.com/search?q=soul+remembers

 

 

The physical body is like a whole functionable computer that has all the keys that write into the ram to store what we think and write temporarily there.

 

The ram represents our brain that temporarily stores the memories all we have, and have done here, while the hard disk permanently represents our souls that store all those memories permanently after being transferred from the ram. 

 

So does the body copy and transfer every bit of information into our souls as evidence for or against us when we leave this world. 

 

Even when the entire computer is old and 'dies' representing our physical body that dies of old age or disease, the memories stored in the pc hard disk are still there like all the memories from birth to the grave transferred and stored by our indestructible souls. See here for explanation. Those memories persist even on death, being transferred into our souls. See experiences here:   

 

https://scientificlogic.blogspot.com/search?q=persistence+of+memory

 

Hence, it would be far richer and more profitable for us to enrich our souls with spiritual wealth and wisdom that are eternal than seek temporary physical wealth we acquire even for a 100 year or more here on earth.  There is also completely no way we can try to resist disease and death ultimately by being a vegetarian or a vegan. 

Even if we are completely a meat eater, smoke a lot, drink a lot, and do nothing else but laze around only to die at 60 with all kinds of lifestyle diseases, or we are a vegetarian, a complete vegan, exercise, mediate and destress ourselves a lot to extend our lives past 100 years disease-free, at the end of 60 or 100 years we still die. What then is our final objective?

 

"The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away"

 

(Psalm 90:10) 

What purpose in life does it serve then if all those labours, struggles, difficulties, achievements in sorrows we put in for 120 years of our extended life were in vain if we were to fly away on death? The dead body literally cannot fly away of course, but it is our soul that left us and flew away, is what this verse clearly means. See this explanation below:

 

https://scientificlogic.blogspot.com/search?q=soul+faster+than+light

 

 

 

In short, it is far better for us to seek for guided spiritual wealth and wisdom that remains with us for all eternity, than to acquire all the wealth of this world for just a hundred years only to leave them all behind us when we die to allow the irreversible chemistry of death and bacteria to take over by devouring and disintegrating all our flesh leaving behind only our bones with no memory 

 

See here what happens when we die:  The Irreversible Chemistry of Death:  

 

https://scientificlogic.blogspot.com/search?q=chemistry+of+death

 

The only way we can nourish this soul of ours is to seek wisdom in our prayers - ask for only for wisdom and guidance, and not knowledge from the universities we attended, least of all, ask for earthly wealth, name, power and fame for 120 years at most in our lives in this world. 

 

When God appeared before King Solomon in his dream what he wanted, King Soloman asked for wisdom, and not wealth, and in so asking, God endowed him with both wisdom to rule over his kingdom plus wealth too that he did not ask 

 

" And God said to Solomon: “Because this was in your heart, and you have not asked riches or wealth or honour or the life of your enemies, nor have you asked long life; but have asked wisdom and knowledge for yourself, that you may judge My people over whom I have made you king.

 

(2 Chronicles 1:11-12)

 

 

Does Life Exist After Death?

 

 

Over 20 years ago I bought a book called “Life after Life” by Dr Raymond Moody, an American philosopher, psychiatrist and physician where he described his study on people who have died and experienced what’s on the other side after they were revived.

The testimonies of those who have died and came back again all have similar descriptions of 'death' and 'beyond' – their experiences were all so strikingly alike, so vivid and so overwhelmingly similar despite their differences in cultural, belief systems and religious background.

They all saw what was in the other dimension not seen when they were physically alive here in this world.  What they saw and experienced after death changed the ways they lived after that. Their views on life and death, and the spiritual entities they saw after they experienced Near Death Experience were so uncannily similar where they all saw a bright light and travelled through a very dark tunnel and saw a very bright light at the end, and beautiful field at the end of the tunnel

Later after Dr Moody wrote his book, numerous studies by other authors on those who have also died and came back also described exactly the same experiences.  

https://www.readersdigest.com.au/true-stories-lifestyle/thought-provoking/11-people-back-to-life-reveal-what-they-saw-other-side

I have written quite a bit on the mystery of life, attempting to answer what exactly is it residing inside a living body, and I know for sure a soul does exist, and only the physical body dies, but the soul lives on for all eternity after flying away on death of the body.

Even Jesus has a soul which is clearly written as “my spirit” moments before He died, and He gave up “His Ghost” (soul and spirit) after that – here:

“And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend “my spirit”: and having said thus, he gave up “the ghost” (Luke 23:46).

Read further my thoughts on this:   

“The Body and the Soul” here all the way down to “Does a soul exist” here:

https://scientificlogic.blogspot.com/search?q=soul

I think one of the best pieces of evidence we have that soul exists in all of us is given by Jusus Christ Himself who illustrated this in His parable of the rich man and Lazarus who had nothing in life when he was in this world.

 

Jesus mentioned when both of them eventually died, their souls were brought to different places. Here’s what the verses say:

 

 “¹⁹ There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. ²⁰ At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores ²¹ and longing to eat what fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.

²² “The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried. ²³ In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. ²⁴ So he called to him, ‘Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.’

²⁵ “But Abraham replied, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in agony. ²⁶ And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been set in place, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us.’

²⁷ “He answered, ‘Then I beg you, father, send Lazarus to my family, ²⁸ for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.’

²⁹ “Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets; let them listen to them.’

³⁰ “‘No, father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent.’

³¹ “He said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.’’

 

(Luke 16:19-31)

 

Many, including the church, preachers and church pastors missed out this hint of the existence of a soul. Not just that alone, the soul remembers all it had when they were in this world just like the rich man who was asked by Abraham to remember all the good things he enjoyed when he was in a bodily physical form when he was in this physical world (Luke 16:25)

Jesus couldn’t be not telling the truth as a Son of God from heaven

The Conveyer's Belt of Time and Life Through a Tunnel (Part 2)

 

The Conveyer's Belt of Time and Life Through a Tunnel (Part 2)

 

The Conveyer's Belt of Time and Life Through a 

Tunnel (Part 2)

 

I often think life on Earth is like a conveyer’s belt carrying the flow of time through a very dark tunnel.

 

Within this time tunnel somewhere along the journey there is a very, very short spectrum of light where life begins to enter into this light when we and all life are born and ends again in darkness as the conveyer’s belt leaves this spot of light.

This conveyer’s belt has many endless sections. On each section there will be a beginning where there is light and darkness at the end of that section. At the beginning of that section life is seeded into birth. The conveyer’s belt in this section will begin with light carrying the birth of our life and all our worldly possessions that are material and physical we have acquired which are actually as burdens in our life, including our own physical body through this lighted segment of the belt. 

The constant movement of the belt represents the time through this passage. Then at the end of this segment, the belt drops down into a very dark and very deep chasm where everything that we acquired, gathered and possessed that was physical and material is thrown down there like unwanted thrash including our lifeless physical body except the immortal non-physical soul which will fly out from this chasm to jump into the next lighted segment of this conveyer’s belt where again the soul will enter into another lump of soil or another body for the rebirth of another life through this second  section.

Just be very mindful always our life from the very beginning is the breath of God, and this breath can NEVER be destroyed except all other substances from the soil from which we were made. His breath is our souls that leave our physical body on death. Be very mindful of His eternal nature always.

"And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul".

(Genesis 2:7) 

What and how we sin is what and how we defile His breath.

Since the conveyer's belt is seamless and continuous, it will travel through the continuity of time like an endless flow of water in a river where all things material will again enter into another dark, dark chasm at the bottom again throwing away everything that were physical except our eternal soul. It is likened a river entering into a waterfall where everything will be washed down into the bottom while the water continues to flow on. 

At the bottom of each pit, the soul will again rise up to fly on into the beginning of the third segment of time and next life, and so on.   

This scenario of birth-death-birth-death cycles and recycle will go on from segment to segment on this conveyor's time belt. This continuous cycle of birth and death and birth may probably take several thousands of millions of years on each segment before a new heaven and earth is created again as foretold in Isaiah 65:17, 2 Peter 3:13, and the Book of Revelation 21:1 in the Bible

Even in astronomy and cosmology, scientists too believe that this universe (heaven) will not last forever, and there may be another rebirth of a new universe (heaven and earth) in a cyclic pattern.  

There may be different tunnels for different individuals, or there may be just one tunnel with different lanes where the light is for individuals with different lifespans. We are not sure, but what I am particularly sure of is, that there is a tunnel, and a very dark and very, very long one most of the time with just a very short spectrum where there is light and the existence of life beneath. 

 

All yet unborn lives are placed behind us in line on this conveyer’s belt waiting their turn to enter into this short spot of light to be born and then rapidly die.

  

It is like a flowing river that takes a very long, long journey meandering among the lonely hills and valleys till the river arrives at a lonely and isolated village where there is life, and soon passes through it to be alone again till it arrives at the next isolated village far, far downstream.

 

This conveyer’s belt carrying the flow of time after a very long, long journey through darkness will enter yet another spot of light probably much longer representing the arrival to yet another world not our own anymore where we will be born again.

 

There we may stay for a much longer period in time till the conveyer’s belt leaves once again till we arrive yet at another spot of light further down in time after entering into each dark, dark, deep, deep chasm where our soul will again emerge into another world. 

 

Wandering Souls and Ghosts:

 

For almost most people their souls manage to jump into the next section of the conveyors belt to begin another life after it emerged from below the chasm. The conveyer’s belt is a continuous chain carrying time, space and life on it except it is broken into many segments of life, death and rebirth after each lighted section ends by dipping into each chasm that neither the living nor the dead can cross over. However, a few souls may have taken the wrong direction; instead of jumping into the next lighted section of the continuously flow of the  belt of time and space after it emerged from the chasm to begin life anew in the new segment, jumped back into its previous segment where their souls are trapped back to this physical world as wandering souls and as ghosts here in the present dimension and can no longer be able to cross over that deep chasms where neither the present living nor the souls of the dead can cross over either dimension.  

 

When that happens, they are trapped in this world forever as restless and wandering souls that manifest itself as ghosts that all ancient cultures, creed, cultures and civilizations have deeply believed and accepted for thousands of years. It may also be possible the deceased who were murdered return to this segment of the living to haunt and seek revenge on its murderer, slaughterer or slayer. His or her soul cannot rest in peace in his or next segment of life. In so doing to seek revenge, his or her soul is forever trapped here, and can no longer cross over peacefully to the next segment in life.

Please refer to my explanation if ghosts and the soul exits here:

https://scientificlogic.blogspot.com/2022/12/some-collections-of-articles-concerning.html

 

The tunnel represents space, and the conveyer’s belt represents the flow of time through space that moves at a constant speed.

 

When we die, we leave our body behind on the conveyer’s belt for it to flow with time, but our souls being not material may possibly fly much faster above the conveyer’s belt towards the next segment of light into the next world further down the tunnel.

 

In other words, our souls may reach the next light first before the arrival of the conveyer’s belt carrying our bodies.

 

The soul being non-material, non-physical and without mass does not obey the space-time theory postulated by Einstein.  

 

A River of No Return: 

 

Once the soul leaves the body and flies forward faster than the flow of time into a tunnel, it will not come back as this would be against the constant flow of time in a space-time continuum. The only few exceptions are the souls that refused or have taken the wrong path to return to their previous segment after emerging from the chasm that separates the living and the non-living as wandering ghosts as already explained.

The conveyer’s belt is where we live and is carried along with time. At the end of this conveyer’s belt is physical death for our body placed on different individual belts.  On death to the physical body, we enter and travel into a very long and dark tunnel which is actually a deep, deep and very dark chasm where we are dropped inside.

At the end of this tunnel the soul sees a light. That’s where the soul flies out from the bottom of the chasm at the end of this dark, dark tunnel of this continuous conveyer’s belt into next segment of the belt at the top where there is light once again. Some deceased who have returned saw this segment as a very, very beautiful field where they saw their long-departed relatives there waiting.  

The physical and the spiritual worlds are separate entities that neither can cross over. In other words, neither the living nor the dead can cross over into each other dimension. There is always a deep chasm in between. 

 This is the same as revealed by Jesus in the parable of the rich man and Lazarus where Jesus revealed there is a great chasm that divides the dead and the living where none can cross over to the other dimension.

You may read this revelation yourself in Luke 16: 22 -25.    

 

On this conveyer’s belt, neither can the living physical body go faster toward the light at the end of the tunnel unless he dies, and his soul leaves his physical body.

There are at least 4 prizes given or price we need to pay in this journey after death.

1.   The Conveyer’s Belt is individualised like separate lane for each living person in this world, but all of them are continuous running endlessly through the passage of time into eternity. Our lifespan depends on which lane on this Belt we were placed. In truth the shorter the belt the better as we would accumulate less sin like a child. There is a lot of truth in this proverb: God loves those who dies young.  

2.   The Belt appears like a loop being carried forward with rollers beneath including the segment into and at the bottom of the chasms, and at hauled up at the top into the next lighted segment before beneath again as a continuous moving loop.

3.   The body before death may be physically very, very dirty like a vagabond or a homeless person who has not taken a bath for many years or all his life. But once he dies, he discarded his physical body and all soil and soil accumulated on them, leaving only his very clean soul All dirt on his body to return to the soil from where he was made and came from like star dusts from another world brought here by as star dusts from a supernova explosion. He carries no physical dirt on his soul. However, what is unclean is his sins that are non-physical he gathered throughout life; the longer he lives, the greater the number of sins he gathers. A physically dirty body that has been derived of physical cleanliness from those who have-nots perhaps would be cleaner and more acceptable in heaven than a rich and physically clean person while in this world accumulating all the wealth and physical possessions he had while he was in this world but have also accumulated lots of uncleanliness of sin. One who has not taken a bath for years and had nothing while he was in this world would probably be far less sinful and cleaner than a wealthy person who had everything in life, he wanted but have accumulated a fortune of spiritual uncleanliness and sins as clearly told by Jesus in His parable of the rich man and Lazarus (Luke 16:19-31). Be forewarned.

4.   A physically blind person since birth would suddenly see light and very clear images and visions round him, his relatives and everything other saw moments his soul leaves his body. He would have a far clearer vision than anyone else who clearly sees everything physically while on earth but is spiritually blind to unseen entities around him.

This is my vision.   

   

A Spiritual Copy of DNA:   

But what I believe even more fearsome is, whatever we do, say, or even just think, a copy of this would instantly be copied and transferred from our physical body into our soul which will be used as evidence in favour or against us after death. I think God would read them like a scientist would read the sequence of a strand of DNA to reveal almost all the information of the organism.

 

The transfer of all our actions into our soul is like the DNA in our body that makes copies of itself on our structural make-up, our height, body weight, shape, our behaviour and traits, the colours of our eyes and hair, the potential disease we may get...and everything that identifies and describe us.

 

The same with our soul that makes copies of our physical body to identify us on death as evidence for or against us, what we have in our physical life like the rich man Jesus described, and Lazarus who had nothing in life.

 

What is more fearsome is, the soul remembers all past experiences and events we did here in this world.

 

Like all things that exist in this universe there must be an opposite partner or a counterpart like males and females, light and darkness, positive and negative, black and white, joy and sadness, massive and light, good and bad, charged and uncharged, love and hate…forgiving and unforgiving…the list goes on and on endlessly like the Chinese theory on yin and yang.

 

All these are copies of each other but as opposite entities like a physical body and its soul.         

 

Finally, even our dead body will still arrive at the light representing another world where we shall unite with our souls and rise up again.

 

 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 

Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus, we shall always be with the Lord (1 Thessalonians 4:16–17)

 

“And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works” (Revelation 20:13).

 

In other words, all past events and history will still finally arrive at the same spot carried by the conveyer’s belt to the next world at the end of this space-time tunnel when this world ends.

 

In Psalm 90:9-10 it clearly tells us this:

 

All our days pass away under your wrath;
    we finish our years with a moan.
Our days may come to seventy years,
    or eighty, if our strength endures;
yet the best of them is but trouble and sorrow,
    for they quickly pass, and we (souls) FLY AWAY

 

And where did they go after FLYING AWAY (to a new world) ahead of us who are still living?

 

In Revelation 6:9-11 John clearly gave us the same answer too in the next world he saw:

 

“I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain and have died.”  

 

Am our thoughts on this into the future too fly as fast as our souls. Think this over, think once again.

 

It has been my nagging thought for many years now, that when we die, we will all enter into this very dark, dark tunnel and travel through it where we can see a very bright light at the other end of the tunnel.

 

But I am unsure how fast we shall travel, whether at the speed of light or beyond since our souls have no mass for us to arrive at the next world where there is light again. It could be in the blink of an eye.

See further discussion on this issue here:

 

  https://scientificlogic.blogspot.com/search?q=speed+of+soul

 

In Isaiah 26:19 it speaks of death similar to a dew that exists for just a short while, and lives again possibly in another world where there is light?

 

  ‘You’re dead shall live; their bodies shall rise.

    You who dwell in the dust, awake and sing for joy!

For your dew is a dew of light,

    and the earth will give birth to the dead’.

 

In other words, our souls, which I strongly believe is originally part of God's breath, can never be destroyed or die, and when we die a physical death, this breath represented by our soul merely returns to where it belongs, which of course is God. 

 "And the LORD God formed man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul" (Genesis 2:7). 

On the issue of rebirth through a time tunnel when we die, I am also certain that this scenario is the same not just for life, but probably for the entire Universe. 

 

In one of the nearly 200 students' forum presentations at the University of Oxford in 2018 the author forwarded his views of a cyclic Universe instead of the current theory of a forever expanding Universe 

 

 Here's a summary of what this author presented.
