I think heaven would be indescribable because we would be there without our senses. Our eyes ears sense of smell would all have had to have been left behind with our body. I guess our feelings and sensations would have to go too, because we would lose the chemicals and all the energy which would allow us to percive them. Rational thought would be left behind with the mind.
i think death must just be a release from this state.
as if we 'de densify'
All the soul is is the energy that keeps you alive. And That energy just dissapates.
But i dont think that will be a bad thing. We lose all sense of reality, and relativity every night when we fall asleep, and it doesnt matter to us.
After REM we are without consciousness.
So to you, Heaven is the state of not existing? Yikes.
So even in your heaven you are separate.
What would you ask him?
So even in heaven you will not 'be one' with him.
why would you need advice on how to be peaceful if in heaven there is no conflict?
I believe we can never be peaceful as individualshere as long as we are separate from each other and need to survive. Whether we like it or not people only care about each other for their own interests, which is an instinctual aspect of the mind and genes to survive (Unless of cource its your childrens lives in consideration, which are the continuation of your genes).
In communities that work, its interdependence which means everyone recognises that it is in their own best interests to work together.
But as long as people regard themselves as separated this interdependence cant happen.
But theres no need for interdependence in heaven as theres no need to survive. Thats why i think its odd you say that even in heaven you are separate, because if we became one with everything it would negate such separateness.
see it like the water that is you in your cup returning to an ocean that is God. You wouldnt be separate any more, you would be part of God, one with God, you would literary know god. Then you could be at peace.
