When you die you cease too exist and basically you will never be alive again..... i am just wondering though how can you possibly describe or imagine a state of eternal nothingness?????????
Nothingness is not a state. You won't be "there" to experience it. Do you remember the nothingness before your brain developed? No, because there was no "you" to experience it. You don't have to describe or imagine a state of nothingness, because there is no "state" for you to describe or imagine - it's nothingness. Nothingness is just nothing. Life ends, your brain shuts down, your experience ends. As such, there's no use trying to imagine anything beyond the experience of dying, because the part of your brain that experiences life and the event just before brain death won't be there to experience the emptiness that follows.
What does a camera record when it is ground into a powder? The answer isn't just "nothing". The answer is "that question is nonsensical because there is no camera anymore".
