Five Kinds of Afterlife

[David Sklansky]

1. The standard religious variety.

2. Reincarnation, perhaps on a different planet.

3. A realization, upon death, that your human brain was just a receiever for the real you that exists elsewhere all the time, perhaps in another dimension (See the last chapter of Poker Gaming and Life).

4. A personal perception of infinite existence even as those around you think you die. Some sort of Einsteinean slowing down of time, like in traveling at the speed of light or entering a black hole. The phenomenon of seeing "your life pass in front of your eyes" upon imminent death, might give credence to this theory (It actually happened in exquisite detail to poker player Lee Salem.)And it would also give you your own personal heaven or hell,depending on how you lived your life.

5. No afterlife period.
