Your CONSCIOUSNESS can perhaps be described as follows: a reaction to, or INTERPRETATION of, the STIMULUS-RESPONSE biological mechanism of your body. It's a sort of CONSTANTLY ABSTRACTING mechanism, that gives you a moment to moment awareness of your situation. Upon death, the input system is now deceased, but what was accomplished up until that point, somehow - REMAINS!

Why does consciousness choose to have the experience of a child who is tortured and killed? Is that intentionality malevolent? Or is all this just random experience? This is where "we're all here just to learn" falls apart. A lot of what passes as spirituality is simply an attempt to rationalize the inconvenient truths of reality and our existence. To accept suffering because it leads something better - like slaves singing hymns in the cotton fields. It is what it is and we make the best choices we can.

Perhaps there's only one Actor...and we are just a bunch of characters.

1 People who have undergone major surgery remember counting down from 10 or 100 and the next thing they knew was being in the recovery room five or more hours later. No fear, no dreams, no nightmares, no sense of self...When we die that consciousness is gone forever; Google physics and the immortality of the soul. 2 Myth: there’s consciousness without the brain; that is, the nonphysical essence of a human (and of all other living things) reincarnates in a different body after biological death. Fact: Without a brain there’s no mind, without a mind there’s no consciousness, and without consciousness there’s no self-awareness and subjectivity. 3 Myth: holy books say humans have spirit, soul, and body. Fact: Science says humans have only mind and body
