このコンテンツについて
This week’s episode takes a detour. I had planned to talk about morality, but life redirected me. My godmother recently passed away at 101, and her death pulled me into the oldest of human questions: what happens after we die?
Across traditions, answers vary: heaven and hell, reincarnation, ancestral return, legacy in memory. But from a humanist lens, death is final. And that doesn’t make life meaningless. Instead, it makes it urgent.
In this episode, I touch on:
- How different cultures and religions wrestle with death
- Why a humanist view of mortality isn’t bleak, but clarifying
- Lessons from a century-long life well lived
- Simple secular practices for remembering the dead and reflecting on our own lives
This isn’t about doctrine. It’s about presence. About living deeply, loving well, and leaving behind a footprint that matters, not for eternity, but for the people and communities we touch right now.
Reflection Questions- What do you believe happens after we die?
- What would you want your living eulogy to say today?
We’ll take this further: if you don’t believe in an afterlife, is there still room for spirituality? Can there be a sense of the sacred without religion?
No gods. No guilt. Just the work of being human.
