When it comes to the mysteries of our universe and human life, the biggest mystery about which many are curious, yet ignorant, is death. Religions have called death the only truth and the afterlife as a gift or curse that we receive depending on our behavior on this planet.
But none of this has been proven, no one really knows what lies ahead. However, an American doctor and scientist, Robert Lanza, in his book, ‘Biocentrism’, says that death can actually be a door to an infinite number of universes.
He calls the phenomenon biocentrism, a kind of mechanism that results in all physical possibilities. Biocentrism also emphasizes the fact that it is not the universe that created humans, but in fact we are the ones who gave birth to the universe as we know it.
In a conversation with the Huffington Post, Lanza revealed that biocentrism shows that space and time are just tools our minds use to weave information together into a comprehensive experience, like a language for consciousness.
He strongly believes in the theory of many worlds and says that death does not exist in these scenarios as all these possibilities are happening at the same time and the only reason we feel ‘alive’ is because of the energy acting on our brain.
In a rather random example, he calls death like ending a good TV series. You can experience different stories, different characters and of course different endings from the vast library that the universe holds and at the end of it all, it’s still you.
According to him, it is only energy and according to the laws of physics, energy can neither be created nor destroyed, it simply moves from one state to another. When we die, there is a break in our linear connection of times and places. And surprisingly, he says, our linear concept of time means nothing about nature.
