Question: Does a person lose his consciousness after he dies?
Answer: It depends. If our consciousness remains “attached to our physical being”, sensing reality through the five corporeal senses, then our consciousness “switches off” with the death of the biological body.
On the other hand if we develop a “higher”, selfless, altruistic consciousness, perception of reality by active, purposeful self-annulment towards others in a unique environment, we will perceive reality above the subjective, physical limitations of time, space and motion. And this consciousness, perception will remain even when the corporeal body inevitably dies.
We all have the capability and chance to develop this eternal consciousness while still being alive in the physical body, here and now.
