It's important to create backups so you don't lose your progress

The universe is infinite forever growing... What if when you die your consciousness leaves your body with all that you've learned (which could be the meaning of life, learn to be, build yourself for the afterlife) and you can go see what ever you want in the universe, stay on earth see all the beauty or horror or leave and go explore planets, galaxies at the speed of thought, you'd just have to think of something or a place and you'd be there or just enjoy the travel to that place without all the needs of your body eat, drink etc.

It's not hard to realize that you're not your body, that you're stuck in a very sophisticated machine made to build yourself. When you sit there and move your fingers realize that it's more than electrical impulses from your brain that makes your finger move, something inside pilots that flesh brain, the brain is just the main connection to make that machine work but you're in the pilot seat and when that body stops working, the gates open and you're free.
And who knows you might think of someone who's dead or not and you could be with him/ her, make plans together if the person is dead or help/ protect a living person (be an angel to them)

That's my theory

THERE IS NO AFTERLIFE there is only after death.

I think so too.
But I wouldn't be so presumptuous as to think everything is fine there.
Perhaps we'll look back on our life on Earth with nostalgia...

There's another theory, you know when sometimes your dream is so real you think it's real... you can feel the wind smell the smells even touch is the same (yes with every part of your body)

This could be your composition of life while you are deeply asleep so at one point after you died you could be able to do, be what ever you want and it would feel as real as the life you're now living. I once dreamt that I was flying (matrix superman thing) and it felt so real and extremely awesome, I've never flown before obviously but this felt like the rel thing if man could fly.

so if your consciousness never dies and you can (with practice) control your thoughts you could actually MAKE your own afterlife which could really be paradise, an infinite life you can craft as you go, you could in fact be your own god

There is no afterlife because when my friend died she never came back to haunt me as a ghost which was planned.

Could be that she had a lot more to do or she didn't grasp the concept of doing that yet. I think there's a lot to learn when you die a bit like when you're born on earth you have to learn things
