Comment on Isaac Asimov: The Last Answer

Comments

Regarding the para of the nexus. What if all we are is a nexus of sensations and thoughts/feelings/experiences. What if even the physical plane is only an experience this nexus goes through. No separate body. The nexus goes through an experience of death, and maybe something after that, too.

That nexus could be what we call consciousness. (Or it could be the human mind.)

And each consciousness could be a part of a larger nexus, one cosmic nexus with millions of child nexi. At some stage, the nexus merges back with the cosmic nexus like a river into the ocean. Perhaps the cosmic nexus is what some people call God.
