What I Believe Happens After Death : My Conundrum of Good and Evil/The Predestination Theory

What I Believe Happens After Death

By Adam Mundorf

What's the worst thing that a person can imagine?  Oftentimes it's death, even though it's called the great unknown.  Nobody knows what happens after this life, it could end up being the greatest ever.  In the following passage, I'll give my idea on what happens after death.

What I Believe Happens After Death
Let's start with birth and death.  One day we just started remembering and doing.  We became an easily malleable soul.  What was before that?  Nothing that we know of.  In a way, death is just as natural as birth.  It happens at different times, in different ways and oftentimes not at an ideal time.  

As with anything in life, everything is connected and everything matters.  A butterfly effect of things change events around the world and for eternity, no matter how insignificant.  I dropped a pencil in New Jersey in 2003 and it caused a Chinese man to get run over by a bus in 2020.  Einstein said that energy can't be created nor destroyed, so your essence or your energy needs to go somewhere.  I believe that when we die, our energy bleeds into our next existence.  A form of reincarnation is the thing that makes sense to me.  One day I was born and my life began, before that there was nothing.  One day my eyes will open again and I will be a soul once again.  No recollection of my past life but reaping the benefits of my former virtuous life.  Where good was done and the good energy paves the way forward into my new existence, constantly inching me closer to the eternal goal.

My belief is that we keep on recycling our energy until we reach a state of nirvana.  Essentially, we become God ourselves with the capability of resting for eternity in eternal bliss.  You will notice the absence of heaven or hell.  I don't believe people are damned or saved, I'll speak about this in the next passage.

My Conundrum of Good and Evil/Pre-Destination Theory
In order for there to be a Jesus, there had to be a Judas.  There had to be a Pontius Pilate to wash his hands of blood.  In order for there to be good, there must be evil.  Who is to say that the evil man, isn't doing exactly as he was predestined to do?  He is allowing another to be good.  If the hypothetical God knows all, then he already knows if we will end up in Heaven or Hell.   What's the point of sitting in pews and attending sermons, if our whole life is already predetermined?

Honestly, I don't know but I do know one thing for sure.  Our energy will persist for eternity.  The essence of who we are will outlive the Earth, floating in the cosmos.  I want my energy to be good and pure.  I don't think that evil souls get much rest but who the fuck knows because evil needs to be present for there to be good.  Honestly, your guess is as good as mine.  I'm getting riled up just writing this because nobody knows and there's no way to verify.  

Anyways, thank you for reading and I appreciate the emails and messages I receive both here and on Reddit.

  Why Do You Want to Be Like Them? The Realization I'm Not Conventionally Smart - Crying in the Car By Adam Mundorf Why Do You Want to Be Like Them? This blog will be mostly my inner monologue with some questions along the way, just for a warning.  I'm putting my thoughts down and through that process to find some 'a-ha' moments.  It's self exploration. I get asked often about why I'm comfortable where I am in life because my chosen profession isn't what most people would want.  I'm not an exactly ambitious individual but am content with my own lot in life.  People respond typically with an almost pity and that perplexes me.  Maybe it's because I have such simple wants and desires.  I value the inexpensive/simple pleasures in life.  I value peace and quiet, a comfortable bed, cute animals and running water.  I for sure get if you burdened your life with obligations i.e, family, huge debts and/or some idealistic dream of being fabulously wealt...

Company Parties : Walk Beside Me not Behind Me : The 'Christian' CEO's

  Company Parties Walk Beside Me not Behind Me The 'Christian' CEO's By Adam Mundorf 'True leading is sacrifice, not privilege.' Company Parties What a kick in the face company parties are.  No money for raises but money for lavish and extravagant parties?  Cutting hours but have money for banquets?  Seems a bit hypocritical doesn't it?  A rising tide raises all ships and all these silly parties do is drain the ocean.  Lets be honest, most people want the cash because we have bills and actual expenses that aren't solved with a pizza party or catered dinner.  We have goals and aspirations where an extra 20 bucks can provide dividends into the future.  Skip the party and distribute the cash.  Your employees will love that more than any party you could throw.  Quite frankly, it's insulting that a company could even throw a party while simultaneously cutting hours.  What a kick in the nuts.   Walk Beside Me not Behind Me A big...

  What I Learned During the Dale Carnegie Course Three Largest Lessons By Adam Mundorf What I Learned During the Dale Carnegie Course Recently, the company I work for decided to host a Dale Carnegie Course for all of its managers and leadership team.  Dale Carnegie is a course meant to enhance leadership qualities while giving you thought provoking scenarios and lessons to use in the real world.  I had a really good time, it allowed me to get out of my comfort zone and taught me three valuable lessons (there are more but I want to limit this blog to the three biggest lessons I learned).  Here they are : Lesson #1 - Adam 'Pause' Mundorf - Avoiding the Stutter Now, anyone who knows me, knows that I've had somewhat of a stutter since a young age.  I'm not talking like King George the Sixth but it's there.  It gave me grief as a childhood but as I got older, it got funnier because I knew it wasn't a disability but my brain moving entirely too fast for my mouth....
