What really happens after we die? Is death the end, or merely a transition?

In this thought-provoking episode of Life After Death, we dive into the profound philosophical inquiries that have shaped human understanding of what lies beyond. Drawing from classical and contemporary philosophies, this episode explores a spectrum of beliefs across civilizations.

We begin with Plato, who viewed the soul as immortal, imprisoned within the body, and destined to return to the world of forms. In contrast, Epicurus argued that death is simply the end—nonexistence—and thus not to be feared.

We then journey eastward into Indian philosophy, where Adi Shankaracharya’s Advaita Vedanta posits that the individual soul (Atman) ultimately merges with the absolute reality (Brahman), liberating it from the cycle of birth and death. Alongside this, we explore modern interpretations like those of Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, who discusses the existence of the subtle body and its role in reincarnation.

The episode doesn’t stop at tradition. We also delve into modern thinkers and neuroscientists, who grapple with the question of whether consciousness can survive physical death—and if so, in what form?

Is life after death about liberation, rebirth, or simply a peaceful end? This episode invites listeners to reflect on death not with fear, but with curiosity, reverence, and wonder.

Let’s contemplate the ultimate mystery of human existence—together.
