Whether or not that popular afterllife-scenario described in various accounts is yet another "fake" to lure us back into incarnation or if it is in fact the "real thing" we can trust, is yet another interesting question.

That was one hell of an intense post. Wowwwwwwwwwwwwww
Its like, for a moment in time, you experienced some reality behind the charade.
And the circle thing I totally get. If someone were to stare at a vinyl record for awhile they'd learn a lot about the nature of the universe.

whoah. That is very intense indeed.
But it got me thinking and I know from what you said earlier in the post may see this as an attempt to get you away from thinking what you do, but what if that was a memory? What if someone abducted whether it be military or ets? The tv would have put you into a semi trance state and seeing a certain commercial could have brought it out. You ever see Serenity?
I'm right on with what you saw though. Some beings harvesting your life force....what if that is the only way a certain species of ets can survive or power their machines? By drawing off energy from humans? What if religious thought itself could be harvested?
The matrix concept seems probable, because look at our world right now, the system is crumbling and we are heading into a new age. What if we destroy ourselves and start over again? It never made sense to me why earth history was so short, until I realized how much of our past was destroyed by religion.

I have often wondered who i am. I know who i am here, in this reality...but in the true reality, who am i?
I used to get very frustrated at not knowing this. I have since learned to just deal with it....but I would really like to know more about my true self, my "Overself".
