You’re entitled to your own personal beliefs, but you should know that your belief is inconsistent with the current scientific understanding of biology and consciousness.
The human brain is a biological machine comprised of a very large number of simple components that follow the laws of physics. Some combinations of those components interacting in a certain way results in what we consider to be consciousness, but it’s still just a chemical reaction based on purely physical processes. When a brain’s components stop interacting in that way, its consciousness ceases to exist.
I agree with this. It may even be a mechanism to send you off to the next realm or something.

No one currently understands consciousness.
What do you suppose is the case then?

I’d like to think there’s more to it. I don’t have a faith or religion but I have stuck with the idea that this can’t be it. Or if it is…oh well.
