Many of us fear death. We believe in death because we have been told
we will die. We associate ourselves with the body, and we know that
bodies die. But a new scientific theory suggests that death is not the
terminal event we think.
One well-known aspect of quantum physics is that certain observations
cannot be predicted absolutely. Instead, there is a range of possible
observations each with a different probability. One mainstream
explanation, the “many-worlds” interpretation, states that each of these
possible observations corresponds to a different universe (the
‘multiverse’). A new scientific theory – called biocentrism –
refines these ideas. There are an infinite number of universes, and
everything that could possibly happen occurs in some universe. Death
does not exist in any real sense in these scenarios. All possible
universes exist simultaneously, regardless of what happens in any of
them. Although individual bodies are destined to self-destruct, the
alive feeling – the ‘Who am I?’- is just a 20-watt fountain of energy
operating in the brain. But this energy doesn’t go away at death. One of
the surest axioms of science is that energy never dies; it can neither
be created nor destroyed. But does this energy transcend from one world
to the other?
