waiting...to be disappeared..
hi, i'm signify, and I'm depressing yet wonderful.
anyway
When we think about death, we may consider a heaven or a hell or both or whatever you subscribe to with your religion. If you're atheist, then ignore that bit, and if you're agnostic, either become an atheist or start your own form of spirituality. But anyway, most religions have a heaven or hell sorta judgement. And while this may seem better than nothingness on the surface, it's actually not really.
Consider being nothing. You can't, it's okay. But if you are nothing, you are free from all the cares and desires of the world forever, and you do not mind that you are missing the good things such as love and ice cream and all that stuff because you do not want for these things. It may sound pretty bad on the surface, but it's really just Buddhism. Freedom from desire and all that stuff. So all you atheists, you are correct. We don't need a heaven. Nothingness is in its way better than any heaven we can dream up. Of the heavens we can't dream up, obviously I can't make that point, but that's not what I am arguing.
And remember kids, the brainwashed do not know they are brainwashed.

I assume by being nothing you imply ego death, as if a rock is about as nothing as actual nothing but no one's told the rock and it doesn't notice things for itself. I this case being nothing is being EVERYTHING a) because you have no sense of an independant self apart from everything else and b) because any mind at large sense of being everything is moot because if you are everything you cant's distinguish one thing from another (living in a world of white) because to do so would be to acknowledge it as it's own thing.
Ultimately I believe that there is more to it than emanation and reabsorption something our binary mindset can't anticipate.
On another note, Hi! Nice to meet you on the internet. I found this blog from a link on xkcd so yes, you should probably link more. And I apoligize for my rather long posts, I usually prefer not to assume but I have no blog of my own so the thoughts kind of overflow onto unsuspecting strangers.
