We Never Die

The question was asked: Why don’t we die in dreams?

On Quora, the social question-and-answer platform, responses often rely on religious doctrine and apocryphal texts. Yet, beneath these interpretations lies a scientific and metaphysical truth—one rooted in the very nature of existence itself.

For centuries, religious institutions have sought to define the human experience, but history reveals that their narratives were constructed, edited, and repurposed to serve power, not truth. The Bible, for example, was written by men and compiled from various texts, many predating its formal canonization. In 325 CE, at the First Council of Nicaea, Emperor Constantine convened Christian bishops to establish doctrinal unity, elevating the concept of the Holy Trinity and reinforcing the idea of Jesus Christ as divine incarnation. Yet, the foundation of this narrative was borrowed heavily from older Egyptian mythos. The name "Jesus Christ" itself lacks spiritual, scientific, or etymological significance—it is a fabrication, a linchpin in what would become the greatest Ponzi scheme in human history.

Religious texts have undergone relentless modification. The Gutenberg Bible, first printed in 1455, and the subsequent English translations—including Myles Coverdale’s 1535 edition—are but iterations of texts that have been altered over 30,000 times. More than 5,000 of these changes reflect discrepancies between the Greek manuscripts used for the Revised Version and the King James Version. The rest? Adjustments in language and meaning designed to perpetuate control, ensure compliance, and modernize deception.

Yet, beyond the reach of religious dogma, dreams offer a glimpse into a deeper reality. Why do we never die in them? Because we are eternal. Our consciousness is not bound by flesh but is instead pure energy—an indestructible force that neither begins nor ends but simply transforms. The concept of Hell, much like other fear-based doctrines, is a human construct, a tool of manipulation designed to govern both minds and wallets.

Science and metaphysics converge on one undeniable truth: energy cannot be created or destroyed. It moves into form, through form, and out of form in an endless cycle. If we are, at our core, pure energy—spiritual light beings inhabiting temporary vessels—then death, as religion defines it, is an illusion. Pain and suffering belong to the physical realm alone. When the body ceases, the energy continues, untethered, free.

The question was never "why don’t we die in dreams?" The real question is: "Why do we ever believe we could?"
