Waht is real fact of after death?






Death is just a change of form for the soul. The soul never dies. The death of the body does not spell end to the soul. Soul is immortal. It is embroiled in the cycle of birth and death, due to karmic forces acting on the soul.


Life could indeed be beautiful and just a thought of dying could be enough to put you in a temporary state of depression. Most of us like to live. We love life and want more of it, but at the same time we’re all aware that one day we’re all going to die. Every human on this planet knows, that one day they will too cease to exist. Some people are terrified by this, but some just accept it and are fine with it, while on the other hand majority of us wants and needs to know if there’s life after.

Let’s first look at the facts and what we DO know about death:

1.Heart stops and cells get deprived from oxygen so cells start irreversible process of dying
2.Lungs cease to function and person stops breathing
3.If CPR is not administered within 6 minutes brain starts to die from lack of oxygen.
4.After 10 minutes brain damage is certain and irreversible
5.Muscles starts to stiffen and body begins to cool down
6.Skin and bone cells die latest and could survive up to 36 hours without oxygen
7.After 36 hours (and extensive tests) person is pronounced brain dead and there’s nothing that could be done for him/her anymore.
8.No one has ever came back after 72 hours of his/hers heart stopping.
9.Your body decompose and you eventually cease to exists
10.Your molecules and atoms become part of the soil and eventually end up in rivers, water air and perhaps some other person’s or animals body.

To describe the process medically we use fancy latin names like following:

.Pallor mortis, paleness which happens almost instantaneously (in the 15รข€“120 minutes after the death)
.Algor mortis, the reduction in body temperature following death. This is generally a steady decline until matching ambient temperature
.Rigor mortis, the limbs of the corpse become stiff (Latin rigor) and difficult to move or manipulate
.Livor mortis, a settling of the blood in the lower (dependent) portion of the body
.Decomposition, the reduction into simpler forms of matter

Doctors use instruments like Electroencephalography(EEG) or intracranial EEG (icEEG) to determine that there’s no electrical activity in the brain before they pronounce person brain dead or dead. Once these devices stop detecting brain activity, that’s it. Person is dead, and the process is irreversible.
