The host of the popular Orthodox YouTube channel "DogmaHacker" released a video material in which he reflects on death. The priest raises the topic of what awaits a person after death. In his view, almost everyone thinks about this.
"And even if you haven’t seriously thought about it, whether you like it or not, one day you will face the answer – and it’s best to be prepared for it," he notes.
The host explains that for thousands of years, philosophers and religious thinkers have pondered this and gathered available information. But only relatively recently has objective science been able to glimpse beyond life.
In this episode, you will learn about studies of clinical death and the experiences of those who were "brought back from the other side"; about evidence of the afterlife and testimonies of the Holy Fathers of the Church; about Heaven and Hell, and different perceptions of them; about the trials of the soul, the afterlife Judgment, the significance of 3, 9, and 40 days.
"Christians know that death is not the end but rather the beginning of the soul's main purpose - Eternal Life. But this is only if in earthly life you have earned it. If you have taken care of your immortal soul," the author explains.
The clergyman will answer the questions: "What to do for this? And what alternatives await our souls if we cannot?"
Earlier, the host of the "DogmaHacker" channel explained what human consciousness is.
