What if "eternal life" was living one great life after another?

You would live a full life and then die, and then be born again into another life. And so the cycle repeats an infinite amount of times.

Would that be hell to you still?

I think it would depend if my mind kept consistent

If it doesn't, ie. I'm born again each time with a fresh slate, a brand new mind, I'm sure it would be just like this life is, I'd reach 25-30 years old and come to the same conclusion each lifetime.. That infinite life wouldn't be something I would want. It sounds crazy to say you want to die, I'm beyond realizing this.. But that's not what it is.. You don't wan't to die.. you just don't want to live, forever.. Consider it.. forever. For EVER means for the existence of time, that means beyond Earth, beyond our solar system, beyond the last human being, beyond.. everything. There would be great expanses of time where you would be existing in nothing, and eventually, according to modern science, you would be floating in nothing for EVER. Do you realize how long for EVER is? It's FOREVER. Dismissing the idea that you might, one day, against all odds, land on some speck of dust in some distant universe somewhere.. what happens when that place goes the way of the dinosaur? More floating around, more waiting, more nothingness..

What happens when, a billion landings later, you're still here... ?

A hundred.. thousand.. million... trillion.. years later.. you're still here. Existing.. humans are long gone by now.. a distant memory.. now what? Why are you here? ... you know what sucks...? The all encompassing thought that this is it. You will ALWAYS be here. Billions of years after your birth and you finally realize this bleak fact. This is it. THIS is the end. No matter what you do, you will always be here. You want to kill yourself and end it all and just stop existing? Sorry, that's not how it works.. Try it. You'll just end up in the same place in another form..

Welcome to existence. Get used to it.

I've had all kinds of profound moments on many different psychedelics, I just didn't let the experiences override my common sense and justified skepticism.

When on LSD everything you experience is in your mind. That's a fact.

you are holding yourself back from so much knowledge by, "not letting the experiences override your common sense and justified skepticism". why won't you let the lsd teach you? seriously dude, this is so much more than a drug. you need to change your mindset when indulging in lsd. if you were partaking in mindless drugs then sure that would be a rational mindset, but with lsd i consider it foolish.

everything lsd teaches me can be applied to real life. that is a fact.

After death,I know that ill be as good as worm food, or plant food if im cremated.I dont know that there is an afterlife,part of me thinks that this life is it,once dead there is no more going on at any level.The other side of me sais that I do not know that there is absolutely nothing after death,for me to state that there is naught in the nihilistic sense is kind of foolish,when the question poses itself to me, how can I know for sure?Its subjective.I simply do not know,but I will state that IMO there is no dualistic punishment system awaiting us and nor do I really attach credence to reincarnation.I tend to think that if we have anything like a soul or some after resonance that our vibration goes back to the source of its origin or another dimension,,,imaginations is a funny little thing sometimes.Just my 2 cents.

I am like a really cool collection of Legos. Once the blood stops flowing the other creatures on my block will rip me apart and, hopefully, build another really cool thing or more likely a whole bunch of cool things with my parts.

Yeeeaaaah, I highly doubt that; and just because you say it, doesn't make it so.

I used to believe all kinds of whacko, superstitious, new age, bullshit. Then I got a degree in Philosophy and was no longer defenseless against the droves of woo-woo, and mystical thinking that plagues the world.

Just because you have a brain doesn't make you an expert on it, and just because you have experiences, doesn't make you an expert on those either.

If LSD is more than a drug and allows you to communicate with some sort of higher power, or draw knowledge from somewhere, you could easily demonstrate that under laboratory conditions and claim a $1,000,000 prize.

you highly doubt that? you've never learned something under the influence of lsd that you can apply to real life? you either have no idea how to use lsd or have never even tried it in the first place..honestly i find it hard to believe that you highly doubt my statement.

i've never said lsd enables you to communicate with a higher power, it does however induce profound spiritual experiences in many of it's users. this is pretty well known. maybe i should claim the prize if no one else has yet.

also, i forget who the author of this quote is but i've always enjoyed it: "The less intelligent a man is, the less mysterious he believes our existence to be."

I'm not claiming to doubt the profoundness of the experiences on LSD, only that the experience itself has natural origins as opposed to supernatural origins.

In the context of 'all knowledge in the universe' we know very little, but what we do know, we put to good use and it works for us, as is demonstrated by virtually anything science has brought forth.

If we look for the unknown, how do we know when we've discovered it, we gather proof of it's existence.
But what if the act of searching it's self is the trigger for existence, for if we do not have a word or proof of something then it simply doesn't not exist in our reality. It's only upon discovery that existence can be proven all else is just theory.

Reality is a concept, one we must agree upon in order for it to exist...thoughts I had while tripping on LSD

The "unknown", I'm assuming you're referring to something that is completely not known. In that case, we do not search for something that is completely unknown. What we search for are known unknowns. Things we know exist that we have little to no scientific explanation for, like dark matter or black holes. Unknown unknowns are, by definition, unknown, therefore, we cannot study them. Were we to come along in the future to a present unknown unknown, thereby knowing of the problem, it would no longer be an unknown unknown, it would then be a known unknown, which can absolutely be studied.

Think road kill. What other models do we have? What other evidence besides "there must be something more because I think there must be"? Don't be too sad about it. You're here now. Think happy thoughts. And don't be too frightened. Your fate was settled with your first breath. You have your whole life to get used to the idea. And for goodness sake, try not to make up wacky theories. Other might disagree violently. Wacky theories only lead to pain and conflict.

Never want to address???? If someone doesn't address this all the time at least in one point in their life then wtf?

Who the fuck cares what happens when you die? It's none of your business.

I see a failure to fully understand the term "You" in the question what happens when "You" die. The answer to that question depends totally on the definition of "You"
