When we are young we think we are immortal: it’s only when we get older we realize how short life was and how quickly the years flew as we question are mortality.
Young people tend to assume they will never die, but a person’s sense of his or her mortality generally increases year by year, and often increases greatly after a serious accident or illness. Still, many people refuse to change behaviors that would improve their chances of living into old age.
Mortality rates are calculated by government agencies, insurance companies also charge premium cost based upon state medical history. Infant mortality rates (the rate at which infants die in childbirth) provide a good indicator of a state or country’s overall health; in recent years, the rates in countries like Iceland, Singapore, and Japan have been much better than in the United States.
Medical immortality – the idea that we’ll be able to reverse the biological ageing process and eliminate the diseases that kill us – seems attractive at first. But there are a litany of reasons why long-term medical immortality would actually be kind of a nightmare.
First and foremost: our brain capacity is limited. This is why the older you get, the harder it gets to remember details of things that happened when you were young. There are only so many memories you can store and recall efficiently, the higher they pile up, the harder and slower they are to recall at a moment’s notice. That’s a problem, because we recall on quick memory recall for virtually every part of our everyday lives.
The end result is that even if you stay biologically twenty years old for 200 years, you’re still going to have the slow, embarrassing brain of a very old person: misremembering names and dates, calling up random or incorrect memories, and telling the same jokes over and over. Your perception of time would likely become extremely warped, the older you get, the more quickly time seems to pass.
What Is Life? Is Death Real?
Living things avoid decay, disorder with equilibrium ~ Erwin Schrodinger!!!
When someone transitions or passes, which some call “death” (I call it Part 0f LIFE) you may hear people say, regardless if they are religious, or not, regardless if you even read a book, you will hear people say “they are in a better place” or something along the lines of this whether positive or negative. These words are spoken innately in most people, and it may comfort them so that is why they say it.
But you can listen to those words itself and that person knows that they are “elsewhere” or even still “here” and very present, even when they are mourning and looking at the body they once occupied they know that “soul” or “energy” or “character” no longer inhabits the body.
However, those individuals speaking this (not all) don’t reflect on what they mean when they say this. I AM IMMORTAL, simply because I left traces of my energy (soul) on earth, I am immortal because I continue to exist in minds/hearts & spirit, just like how we exist in each others mind while we are “alive.”
All the great ancient souls still lives through their teachings, because they live within us. SIMPLY what I am speaking about is that – energy is immortal, energy cannot be created nor destroyed, only transferred. GOOGLE: the definition of ENERGY.
Scientist have already explained our body is electromagnetic, they may not use those words in detail, but if you can put information together then you overstand that energy is in many forms, think about your first breath you took when you are “born” and also think about where the breath goes when we “die”. And where does it return to?
Where did you go/return to/or enter? therefore YOU, the energy you are is immortal and that energy is what gives energy to this vehicle. This is why your environment and food is very important. Are you eating the electric foods? Are you charging yourself up while you are in this realm? Or do you unplug from the motherboard and live in a lower vibration?
Energy is Infinite.
Death is a powerful force that has been motivating human behavior forever. It causes us to spend our life savings to live in a nursing home. Also: being medically immortal doesn’t mean being actually immortal. It just means you won’t die of old age or (possibly) disease. Instead, you must accept the Fact 0f LIFE you may die in an accident, or a homicide, or a war, or meet some other violent end.
And even if you’re OK with that, think about the absolutely brutal effect that will have on your friends and on family in a world where people no longer have to die. Now, death sucks but at least it’s fair – we all die. In the world of medical immortality, that is much less true, and every death is a sudden, unexpected shock that seems all the more unfair because had you not been hit by that truck, you could have lived another 50 years.
Then of course there are all of the social problems: overcrowding, limited resources, the total pointlessness of the prison system, the elimination of retirement, and the stagnation of social, economic, and political systems where the old never die off, Death is a powerful force that has been motivating human behavior forever. Taking it out of the equation will change everything about human life, and only a fool would assume — all of those changes would be for the better.
Perhaps that’s for the best. On our darkest days, it certainly seem humans are nothing more than cruel, violent, destructive creatures and the universe might genuinely be better off without us. Even so, as a human myself at any age, it’s hard for me to get excited about the glorious future in which we bring about immortality by eliminating humanity.
Many religions tell us we may become immortal once we have shed our mortal bodies in death. There is no evidence for this and at the moment remains purely speculative. It seems unfair that we have to toil through life, suffer hardships and disappointments, experience pleasure and joy, only for it all to come to an end with no noticeable reward.
It seems unfair that we have to toil through life, suffer hardships and disappointments, experience pleasure and joy, only for it all to come to an end with no noticeable reward. The universe isn’t fair nor is it unfair, it just is.
The old must make way for the new. It is the natural order of things.
If you believe that you have a soul or spirit and you believe that spirit is infinite and cannot be destroyed, then yes we are actually immortal. Moreover, our immortality only exists on the spiritual plane and not on any physical one.
Just as science considers as an axiom that information cannot be lost or destroyed, then the same exists with spirit as well.
However understanding the nature of immortality goes hand in hand with understanding infinity!! According to the Oxford dictionary the term ‘Immortal’ means “living forever; never dying or decaying,” and it’s a Fact 0f Life that this definition clearly does not apply to humans.

I’m in love with Madilyn Bailey’s voice. It Like Perfection.
I’m sorry but 3:47 to 3:50 is just pure ENERGY. This note hit me so hard!
