RE: A Speculative Case for Eternal Life

Browsing around this morning, I just moments ago found this panpsychism (universal consciousness) site. While most speculation to date links consciousness to matter, I see no reason that consciousness depends on matter. Just because we observe that some living things have consciousness does not mean that consciousness necessarily must only exist in living things. We must keep in mind the iceberg effect, which expresses that what we can observe is but a fraction of what exists. It's entirely possible that consciousness involving matter is simply a tiny fraction of the spiritual universe.

What is known is demonstrably only a tiny fraction of what there is to know, and the older I get the more certain I am that most of what is important to me, that really exists, is beyond my ability to perceive, or even conceive, during my experience in the material world. I hardly dare to imagine having the blinders of my physical form removed, and my perception and understanding unleashed upon spiritual reality, lest my yearning for that release become too powerful to resist. I am determined to run my course as a corpuscle of meat that is ordained, that I might attain the fullest benefit of my grant of existence here.

Thanks!
