Considerations

If there indeed exists
continued existent afterlife, what is it that exactly would transcend into an other dimensional state ? Certainly not the body or its sensory system, which may moulder in the mud. Would it be the Ego or the Identities ? Would it be an Ipseity ? Would it be Spirit, as a secret agent inhabiting the body all along - a stowaway ?

Personally I am in favor of the Ego, of which I worked long and hard to produce a vehicle for the living of life. I would have a problem with the Identities or Ipseities which are so fickle and can be changed overnight. Can Identities half detached from the body as mental creations, know the cognizance and consequence of life ? While the Ego stays in the trenches life long with the body, breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Who otherwise would I want to be transcended as ? The philosopher, the writer of short stories, the sculptor long gone ? The indigenous earth lover ? The Ego - who has ever heard of it ? I have had out body experience. And it sure seemed like out was Ego be to me. Although before hand I had fortified myself with the identity of the adventurous traveller.

It felt like me and not a spirit. Or am I spirit and don't know it ? As the song said, we are spirits in a material world. I left my body. Who is the I ? Can one get into heaven disguised as an Ipseity ? an impersonation of a holy saint ?

These holy thou-art there where, deny earthly being. They are ashamed of their terrestrial selves. They imitate angels. However if I were to transmigrate to trans-mitigation as my Ego, then what ? If I reincarnate trans-times, then for each reincarnation I would have an Ego. Getting crowded in this heavenly mansion one might suppose. Multiple personality problem. By my reckoning, a Soul, a Spirit and any number of Egos spiritualized.

The Identities of the Soul, assuming such, if Identities are objectives personified, the Ego might also be objectives characterized. Thus what would I be as an objective of the Soul ? Could I be an Ipseity of the Soul. Does a Soul need Identities and Ipseities ? Am I my Soul's object to produce objectives ? If my Soul is a philosopher or philosophess perhaps. But we all know there are no objectives in Heaven, for having it all there is nothing to attain.

Which bodes the question, who am I ? Ego of the body, Identities of the mind, Ipseities of the mentalized far side, Spirit of the other world, or Soul of something somebody spiritual, or all of them combined ?

If I am Soul, would I be the same as I am now, in the after world ? If I am Spirit and lost a body, do I find a new body in Soul ? If I am Ipseity, am I looking for astral rock stars and angelic Madonnas s ? If I am Identity, which Identity would I be ? And if I am Ego, do I just be me ? What's up ?

If I lose my Ego I would be very sad. But then perhaps what I find, is O so much better, as advertised. But then what is the sense of Ego this, in the worst place ?
