But the reality is the second you change bodies, I would be her.

And she would be me.

There wouldn't be her as me, me as her.

And so even if you're right, here's what I think would happen when you take off the headset.

The headset is everything you think of as you.

And that even if you're right, that you can meditate your way to moments like that where you're just pure awareness,

One, if you're right, all that the consciousness lives to do is cycle through other qualia.

So you would either be reincarnated, meaning that you would just pop back up in a new headset because that's what the consciousness is meant to do is cycle through all this qualia.

And so you would refragment yourself back off, you would pop up, you'd be reincarnated, you'd live life again.

Or you would return to the Borg, the beehive, the ant colony, however you want to think about it.

You would be reinstantiated as just pure awareness and all of that loving and clinging and hating and attachment and precious moments and distance and all that, poof, gone.

And I find that when people explore these ideas from a religious perspective, they are forgetting that they're mired in the gruesome reality of the human experience.

And that to transcend that and be in heaven, for instance, and never experience pain again or whatever, you would be so different.

You wouldn't recognize or relate to anybody in the same way.

And so I have yet to hear any theory whatsoever other than regrowing your biological organs where you actually end up cheating death.

Everything else is you die.

All of the things you love, poof, go away.

Maybe you're exchanging them for something better, but make no mistake, everything goes away.

Well,

That's my guess.
