Explain, please.

It's simple; what was your original face before your parents were born?
2
I don't understand the question.

When you realize the question you'll simultaneously realize the answer. Your afterlife is the same as your beforelife. Who, or what were you before you had this body? That's exactly what you still are and will continue to be after this body passes. It's within your grasp, in fact you can't grasp anything without it. 😜

It's ok. You can't see yourself directly there, either. It just seems more natural.

Looks like I'm going to hell.
Anyone else? Let's meet up and grab some of that famous red hot tea.

It was my third spin. Should we wait for Joshu?
Edit: Too late. I escaped through reincarnation.

Most people I have met who follow Zen believe that existence ends in non-existence. Bottom line, most Zenists are total nihilists.

It is a potential option. Not a good one, in my view, but not everyone is at peace with existing. They can deep snooze if they wish.

Another name for non-existence/nihilism might be meaninglessness.
2
Holding that view, leaving this life, the big sleep seems a likely outcome. With slight tweaking, it could be done purposely.
I like creating meaning subjectively. I'll always be doing something. Purpose isn't a weak spot for me.

I have read the accounts of many who have had an NDE. Almost universal with even the naysayers who have had an NDE is when seeing their lifeless body they really don't identify with it. It is like an outer garment of no intrinsic value. They recognize more or less that the are conscious agents. The world they are situated in is more real and vivid than the world the corpse interacted with.
2
Meaning that ends was still meant.
1
I leave meaning to symbols, and symbols to the symbol minded.

You just didn't.

Nihilists don't think they exist
*edit: Btw, I got Hell, should be obvious 🐉🤷♂️😆

If they just "don't think", they'd no longer be nihilists.

Placeholder post. Think this a goner, too.
Edit: Added another outcome.
Then landed on it. Mark that a success. Twice.

In b4 removed: I got two 'annihilations' and one 'Nirvana'. Makes sense :)
