Beautiful fields and forests, rivers and lakes filled with beautiful fish, orchards with wonderful fruits, there are no problems, only happiness and beauty is one of the ideas about life that continues after death on Earth. Many believers describe in this way the paradise that a person enters without doing much harm during his earthly life. Is there life after death on our planet? Is there proof of life after death? These are quite interesting and deep questions for philosophical reasoning.
Scientific concepts
As in the case of other mystical and religious phenomena, scientists were able to explain this issue. Also, many researchers consider scientific evidence of life after death, but they do not have material foundations. Only later.
Life after death (the concept of "afterlife" is also often found) - people's ideas from a religious and philosophical point of view about life occurring after the real existence of a person on Earth. Almost all of these ideas are associated with the human soul, whichis in the human body during his life.
Possible afterlife options:
- Life next to God. This is one of the forms of existence of the human soul. Many believers believe that God will resurrect the soul.
- Hell or heaven. The most common concept. This idea exists both in many religions of the world and in most people. After death, the human soul will go to hell or heaven. The first place is reserved for people who sinned during mortality.
New image in a new body. Reincarnation is the scientific definition of human life in new incarnations on the planet. Bird, animal, plant and other forms that the soul of a person can inhabit after the death of the material body. Also, some religions provide for life in the human body
Some religions provide evidence for the existence of life after death in its other forms, but the most common ones were given above.
Afterlife in Ancient Egypt
The highest graceful pyramids have been built for decades. The ancient Egyptians used technologies that have not yet been fully understood. There are a large number of assumptions about the technologies for building the Egyptian pyramids, but, unfortunately, not a single scientific point of view has full evidence.
The ancient Egyptians had no proof of the existence of the soul and life after death. They only believed in this possibility. So people builtpyramids and provided the pharaoh with a wonderful existence in another world. By the way, the Egyptians believed that the afterlife is almost identical to the real world.
You should also pay attention to the fact that, according to the Egyptians, a person in another world cannot go down or up the social ladder. For example, a pharaoh cannot become an ordinary person, and an ordinary worker cannot become a king in the realm of the dead.
The inhabitants of Egypt mummified the bodies of the dead, and the pharaohs, as mentioned earlier, were placed in huge pyramids. In a special room, subjects and relatives of the deceased ruler placed items that would be necessary for life and government in the other world.
Life after death in Christianity
Ancient Egypt and the creation of the pyramids date back to ancient times, so the proof of life after the death of this ancient people only applies to Egyptian hieroglyphs that were found on ancient buildings and pyramids as well. Only Christian ideas about this concept existed before and exist to this day.
The Last Judgment is the judgment when the soul of a person is judged before God. It is the Lord who can determine the fate of the soul of the deceased - will he experience terrible torment and punishment on his deathbed or go next to God in a beautiful paradise.

What factors influence the decisionGod?
Throughout the earthly life, each person commits deeds - good and bad. It should be said right away that this is an opinion from a religious and philosophical point of view. It is on these earthly deeds that the judge looks at the Last Judgment. Also, one should not forget about the vital faith of a person in God and in the power of prayers and the church.
As you can see, in Christianity there is also life after death. The proof of this fact exists in the Bible, the church and the opinion of many people who have dedicated their lives to serving the church and, of course, God.
Death in Islam
Islam is no exception in adherence to the postulate of the existence of the afterlife. As in other religions, a person performs certain actions throughout his life, and how he dies, what kind of life he will have will depend on them.
If a person committed bad deeds during his existence on Earth, then, of course, a certain punishment awaits him. The beginning of punishment for sins is a painful death. Muslims believe that a sinful person will die in agony. Although a person with a pure and bright soul will leave this world easily and without any problems.
The main proof of life after death is in the Koran (the holy book of Muslims) and in the teachings of religious people. It is worth noting right away that Allah (God in Islam) teaches not to be afraid of death, because a believer who does righteous deeds will be rewarded in eternal life.
If in the Christian religion the Lord himself is present at the Last Judgment, then in Islam the decision is made by two angels- Nakir and Munkar. They interrogate the departed from earthly life. If a person did not believe and committed sins that he did not atone for during his earthly existence, then punishment awaits him. The believer is granted paradise. If there are unredeemed sins behind the back of the believer, then punishment awaits him, after which he will be able to get to beautiful places called paradise. Atheists are in for a terrible torment.
Buddhist and Hindu beliefs about death
In Hinduism, there is no creator who created life on Earth and who needs to pray and bow down. The Vedas are sacred texts that replace God. Translated into Russian, “Veda” means “wisdom” and “knowledge.”
Vedas can also be seen as proof of life after death. In this case, the person (to be more precise, the soul) will die and move into new flesh. The spiritual lessons that a person must learn are the cause of constant reincarnation.
In Buddhism, paradise exists, but it has not one level, as in other religions, but several. At each stage, so to speak, the soul receives the necessary knowledge, wisdom and other positive aspects and moves on.
In these two religions, hell also exists, but compared to other religious ideas, it is not an eternal punishment for the human soul. There are a large number of myths about how the souls of the dead went from hell to heaven and began their journey through certain levels.
View of other religions of the world
In fact, each religion has its own ideas aboutafterlife. At the moment, it is simply impossible to name the exact number of religions, so only the largest and main ones were considered above, but they can also find interesting evidence of life after death.
It is also worth paying attention to the fact that in almost all religions there are common features of death and life in heaven and hell.
Nothing disappears without a trace
Death, death, disappearance is not the end. This, if these words are appropriate, is rather the beginning of something, but not the end. As an example, you can take the stone of a plum, which was spat out by a person who ate the direct fruit (plum).
This bone is falling, and it looks like its end has come. Only in fact it can grow, and a beautiful bush will appear, a beautiful plant that will bear fruit and delight others with its beauty and existence. When this bush dies, for example, it will simply go from one state to another.
What is this example for? Moreover, the death of a person is also not his immediate end. This example can also be seen as proof of life after death. Expectation and reality, however, can be very different.
Does the soul exist?
Throughout the whole time there is talk about the existence of the human soul after death, but there was no question about the existence of the soul itself. Maybe she doesn't exist? Therefore, it is worth paying attention to this concept.
In this case, it is worth moving from religious reasoning to scientific facts. The whole world - earth, water, trees, space and everything else -is made up of atoms and molecules. Only none of the elements has the ability to feel, reason and develop. If we talk about whether there is life after death, the evidence can be taken from this reasoning.
Of course, we can say that there are organs in the human body that are the causes of all feelings. We must also not forget about the human brain, because it is responsible for the mind and mind. In this case, you can make a comparison of a person with a computer. The latter is much smarter, but it is programmed for certain processes. To date, robots have been actively created, but they do not have feelings, although they are made in human likeness. Based on the reasoning, we can talk about the existence of the human soul.
It is also possible, as another proof of the above words, to cite the origin of thought. This part of human life has no scientific beginning. You can study all kinds of sciences for years, decades and centuries and “sculpt” a thought from all material means, but nothing will come of it. Thought has no material basis.
Scientists have proven that there is life after death
Speaking about the afterlife of a person, you should not pay attention only to reasoning in religion and philosophy, because, in addition to this, there are scientific studies and, of course, the necessary results. Many scientists have puzzled and puzzled over how to find out what happens to a person after his death.
The Vedas were mentioned above. These scriptures speak of the transmigration of the soul from one body to another. That was the question askedIan Stevenson is a famous psychiatrist. It should be said right away that his research in the field of reincarnation has made a great contribution to the scientific understanding of life after death.
The scientist began to consider life after death, the real evidence of which he could find on the entire planet. The psychiatrist was able to consider more than 2000 cases of reincarnation, after which certain conclusions were made. When a person is reborn in a different image, then all physical defects are also preserved. If the deceased had certain scars, then they will also be present in the new body. This fact has the necessary evidence.
During the study, the scientist used hypnosis. And during one session, the boy remembers his death - he was killed with an ax. Such a feature could be reflected in the new body - the boy, who was examined by the scientist, had a rough growth on the back of his head. After obtaining the necessary information, the psychiatrist begins to search for the family, where, perhaps, there was a murder of a person with an ax. And the result was not long in coming. Jan managed to find people in whose family a man was hacked to death with an ax in the recent past. The nature of the wound was similar to the growth of a child.
This is not the only example that could indicate that evidence of life after death has been found. Therefore, it is worth considering a few more cases during the research of a psychiatric scientist.
Another child had a defect in his fingers, as if they had been chopped off. Of course, the scientist became interested in this fact, and for good reason. The boy was able to tellStevenson that he lost his fingers while working in the field. After talking with the child, a search began for eyewitnesses who could explain this phenomenon. After some time, people were found who told about the death of a man during field work. This man died as a result of blood loss. The fingers were chopped off with a thresher.
Considering these circumstances, we can say that there is life after death. Ian Stevenson was able to provide evidence. After the published works of the scientist, many people began to think about the real existence of the afterlife, which was described by a psychiatrist.
Clinical and real death
Everyone knows that with severe injuries, clinical death can occur. In this case, a person's heart stops, all life processes stop, but oxygen starvation of the organs does not yet cause irreversible consequences. During this process, the body is in a transitional phase between life and death. Clinical death lasts no more than 3-4 minutes (very rarely 5-6 minutes).
People who were able to survive such moments talk about the "tunnel", about the "white light". Based on these facts, scientists were able to discover new evidence of life after death. Scientists who studied this phenomenon made the necessary report. In their opinion, consciousness has always existed in the Universe, the death of a material body is not the end for the soul (consciousness).
Cryonics
This word means freezing the body of a person or animalso that in the future there was an opportunity to revive the deceased. In some cases, not the entire body is subjected to deep cooling, but only the head or brain.
Interesting fact: experiments on freezing animals were carried out as early as the 17th century. Only after about 300 years did humanity think more seriously about this method of obtaining immortality.
It is possible that this process will be the answer to the question: "Is there life after death?" Evidence may be presented in the future, because science does not stand still. But for now, cryonics remains a mystery with hope for development.
Life after death: latest evidence
One of the latest evidence in this issue was the study of the American theoretical physicist Robert Lantz. Why one of the last? Because this discovery was made in the fall of 2013. What conclusion did the scientist make?
It is worth noting right away that the scientist is a physicist, so this evidence is based on quantum physics.
From the very beginning, the scientist paid attention to color perception. He cited the blue sky as an example. We are all used to seeing the sky in this color, but in reality everything is different. Why does a person see red as red, green as green, and so on? According to Lanz, it's all about the receptors in the brain that are responsible for color perception. If these receptors are affected, the sky may suddenly turn red orgreen.
Every person is accustomed, as the researcher says, to see a mixture of molecules and carbonates. The reason for this perception is our consciousness, but the reality may differ from the general understanding.
Robert Lantz believes that there are parallel universes, where all events are synchronous, but at the same time different. Proceeding from this, the death of a person is only a transition from one world to another. As evidence, the researcher conducted an experiment by Jung. For scientists, this method is proof that light is nothing more than a measurable wave.
The essence of the experiment: Lantz passed light through two holes. When the beam passed through the obstacle, it split into two parts, but as soon as it was outside the holes, it merged again and became even lighter. In places where the waves of light did not join into one beam, they became dimmer.
As a result, Robert Lantz came to the conclusion that it is not the Universe that creates life, but quite the contrary. If life ends on Earth, then, as in the case of light, it continues to exist elsewhere.
Conclusion
Perhaps it is undeniable that there is life after death. Facts and evidence, of course, are not one hundred percent, but they exist. As can be seen from the above information, the afterlife exists not only in religion and philosophy, but also in scientific circles.
Living this time, each person canonly guess and think about what will happen to him after death, after the disappearance of his body on this planet. There are a large number of questions about this, many doubts, but no one living at the moment will be able to find the answer he needs. Now we can only enjoy what we have, because life is the happiness of every person, every animal, you need to live it beautifully.
It is best not to think about the afterlife, because the question of the meaning of life is much more interesting and useful. Almost everyone can answer it, but that's a completely different topic.
