Immortality: "It is impossible to be conscious of being unconscious." It is not possible to be aware of being unconscious from your own perspective. You cannot be aware of not being aware. You can be less aware/conscious, such as when you are asleep, but not completely unconscious (dead), because time would stand still for you. A billion years could pass, and you would not know it. How do you know you are dead? It is not possible to be aware of any gaps in life; it is continuous and never-ending from your own point of view. Death and birth are a continuous event from your own perspective. You will die physically, but you will be born into a new physical body. Being born happens, or you would not be here now. You were born into this life. It is what we know happens. There is no evidence anything else happens. True or false? . Michael Smith
About This Quote

A lot of people think they are going to be dead in a certain future, but in reality they will come back in another body. For example, when you die you will come back in a new body. You will be born after your old body is dead. You will be born again into a new life.

The only way for you to know if you will come back in another body is to die, but there is no evidence that death is happening. People who think that when they die they will end up in heaven or hell can never know for sure because they cannot prove that they are going to live or not live. They can only know if they live or not live after death happens.
