This Video Will Give You Goosebumps - Is Death Just An Illusion?

Hi T&H community, we hope this video moves you like it moved us. Death is life's final mystery, yet many of us are scared to even think about it. Alan Watts has a gift of bringing these questions into our awareness. So, the goal of this video is to help us think about what happens when we die. And, we'd love to hear what you believe. What happens at the end of life?

As an atheist I almost drowned at 14 in an upside down canoe. Panicked, sucked in water, (throat cut off water flow to lungs -- physical instinctual reaction), passed out, life events passed before me in reverse going back to laying face down in a crib, to the most loving feeling one can imagine as it felt like I was going to God. Came to, rolled canoe over, surfaced, survived a believer in God. From atheist to believer in 60 seconds.

I am currently dying of a problematic heart. Thank you for this. I really hope everything will be okay

Seconds before my own mother‘s death, she looked up/smiled and said “It’s so beautiful”

After seeing my buddy pass away in my arms overseas fighting the meaningless war. As he was passing, he was smiling as he left and he seemed at peace. It really makes you wonder what's in store for us next. I honestly hope it's a neverending place of love and warmth.

They say everything happens for a reason and so I found myself this morning, having become detached from all of those who were my world pre covid, having left my job in the pharmaceutical industry, having left my home to live in a vehicle and having decided to spend Christmas Day in solitude alone with my own thoughts, watching this video on YouTube. It made me cry and it’s made me feel understand much more clearly why I have done the things I’ve done. I’m a protector. I live with love not fear and I always will.

I don't believe we die, we just lose our physical bodies. Our soul doesn't die. My son passed away at the age of 23 in 2019. I believe I will see him again one day when it's my time and I can't wait to hold him in my arms again 💚🙏. How happy that will make me.

There is no death, the human body houses the soul, the soul can never die it steps into another dimension, life is eternal 💖

"I was loved just because I existed." - thats a very very very strong line.

My beautiful daughter who was only in her early 30s died unexpectedly a month ago. She pointed me to this video so I would know she’s okay and in a loving place. She had made a bracelet at Thanksgiving just two days before she died, that said “love always”. This has become our family’s intent since.

Had a death experience in my early 20's, I am 71 now. I too was up at the ceiling looking down at my body then realized I was not bound to the earth and found myself in this incredible light and the feeling of well being was all consuming. I realized that this physical life is an experience we chose to have at a soul level and the people in your life who have died, have only died in the physical body and I assure you that you will see them again. Please do not rush to get over there, you are here for a specific reason and to go before your time will certainly be a missed opportunity for you. There is a much bigger picture here and we all agreed to forget who we really are in order to have this experience. We are incredibly powerful, non physical beings of love and light. Everything springs from thought as we are pure consciousness. The same is true in this physical life...what you believe to be true...what your perspective is..you will experience! Live your life well...

My wife passed away in August age 52 and watching her pass was the hardest thing I've ever witnessed . She let out a tear at the end but the look of peace on her face at the end . I just want to hold her hand once more

Having been diagnosed with end stage COPD and Emphysema, I went into respiratory failure in November of 2018. I am now in Hospice care. The whole death and dying process seems to be dragging out. But you take the good with the bad. Someone asked me how I can be so upbeat, and not afraid of talking about dying, and the whole process. The only way I can describe it is like this. It's like getting ready for a trip that you've been looking forward to for a long, long, time. I don't expect to be going on this trip tonight. But you never know. Whether it's tonight, or next year. I look forward to going on this trip. It's exciting. Let's be honest. None of us are getting out of this alive. 😅

No one really fears death. It's the pain we face leaving the ones we love 😢😢😢

I recently lost my wife of 23 years at the young age of 56 and it devastated me because I felt like we were both robbed of another 20 plus years together. Watching this video helped me find peace in knowing that she is no longer suffering and that we will be together again when my time comes. What I must do now is endeavor to live my life to the fullest extent without fear and focusing on loving everyone even though I may disagree with them they are all part of the source and therefore part of me. Love conquers fear

I believe my dad sent this to me today. It’s 30 years today since he passed, and I was just talking with him on a walk this morning and pondering what happens to us after we pass. I said out loud that we are souls of never ending energy and that we never really die. Thanks, daddy, and I love and miss you so much ❤️

Im from the uk and I was diagnosed with terminal cancer 3 and a half years ago...I was given 2 months to live..I lost my job, my house, my girlfriend and my savings..but I didnt lose my mind...this video is so good to see..and the lady who was in a coma, and full of cancer ..just like I am.....I 100% believe this lady..she is not sensationalist..she has no agenda except wanting to tell her story..thankyou so much for posting this...you dont know how much this means to me

Every time life gets to me, I listen to these stories/talks/motivations. It always brings me back to reality and calms me.

Love is the key to everything and fear is our worst enemy. Time to chose love.❤

Wow. Watching this video and reading some of the comments made me cry like a baby. I woke up today feeling like life has no meaning. But something wonderful just happened. Everything that I was feeling just lifted away and I feel alive. Thank you all and thank you God for the breath of life you deposited in us.
