You, the being who in habits your body is immortal, you always have existed and always will exist!. Death of the body is an illusion in the same sense that all of physical manifest reality is an illusion!. To the extent you consider physical life real, death is very real!. Believe me, it will happen to you to so you better get used to that idea!.

Life after death is such a funny way to put it because Life just is, and you are alive always!. It is more like for a moment you put your energy into your body, have an experience, and when you are tired of the experience you remove your energy!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

There are those cosmologists who conclude that, since energy never perishes, something of our consciousness lives on in the universe!.

Not a hypothesis we can test right now!.!.!.

But definitions! "Mortal" means "is going to die eventually"--so all of us are mortal, none are immortal!. What you're posing here is a question about survival of some part of our consciousness after death--in short, afterlife--which can be theorized about in almost infinite ways, including the ones you and I are doing here!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

As in this universe for every end there is a beginning and perhaps the end of life is the beginning of something we can never comprehend as conscious beings of this universe!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
