You are risen. Yes, you! Resurrection is not only an event sealed in the past, nor a miracle waiting somewhere in the distant future. It is not confined to a single body, a single moment, or a single story handed down through centuries. Resurrection is the living movement of Reality itself, unfolding endlessly. It is [...]

I had a great conversation a few weeks ago on my friend's podcast.
This film has many wonderful mystical themes on the nature of the soul, the afterlife, premortality, and the meaning of life.

Is there no one and nothing else out there that we can feel community with? Perhaps we can, with literally every being and every thing.
What is the nature of existence beyond our mortal life? Do we have anything to do with it? Yes, very much so.
Many people want to reduce our life and consciousness to the physical brain today, but I think we can go much deeper to the Source of our Life and all things.
The answer may be found in the question, in the identification of the "I." Who we think we are and who we really are affects how we consider life after death, and what we will thus "feel" there.
