Funny I just came back after some time, and I thought this is a great topic, and I am sorry it's, well, dead. There are really two distinct deaths available, one where you are really dead and you decompose, and the other where you really just see a doctor and he gives you alum and growth hormones later, and so you take on a new identity. For the latter death of the former is a grand hypocrisy where in both instances nobody wants to talk about the difference between the two, so we all have to die even if we really don't actually die. I always plan on the latter.
But death on a web forum, you've got to go and figure, that everybody dies, right? Wether we graduate from our studies, or assume a new career, everything is constantly changing, and so do we. But for as long as something lasts is that really life? Are we living for internet friendships??? As far as I am concerned that is a death from the real. So it's all about where you stand, what your true memories are and where you go. I don't really care because most of the people in the world are waiting to die, and I am not.
As for kicking the foro, give it time. Kick it, come back, or just stop going on the internet. What??? I never really have been in to this long enough to consider it a life. I always just take time to living. It's more like the great antagonistic view. (I always consider it great community while I am here though.) One never knows enough until it's just a memory.

well i was dead now i am reborn again..........hi 
lol, i have been away, and came back and searched for an interesting threa d and found this............bet noone missed me. Why should they?
I came here because i love flamenco and would like to learn it. But i also like other styles and so have been looking at them, like Blues and Jazz
I am total beginner so have got to learn basics TOO so have been doing that
In my time since goin away for a buit I am learning so much...not only about geetar but other stuff too
I had a very powerful OBE years back where I actually met beings. Two who looked human--a man and woman, and leter I met what I thought were my mum and her friend but were Satyr-looking beings wearing their masks!!! This was as real as anything. And this extraordinarily powerful experience was also a divination of my future and a lot of it has come to pass. It was a warning. And because our culture has been separated from indigenous wisdom where dreams and non ordinary experiences were sacred and taken very seriously, and the meanings of them were explored---in OUR more superficial modern culture, this usually gets laughed at and ignored. And that is where I was for many years, and only i have had to work out what the experience means. And this realization is very recent and awe-inspiring
This experience has greatly changed my life. Because it makes you feel reality in a wholly different way than say if you totally believe in a materialistic reality----which I must point out I didn't before. I mean I had psychedelic experience when I was 15!! And that also profoundly changed my life. But this OBE was THE most powerful experience I have ever had
So what does it say for the question: What happens when you die?
i'll try and answer that this way. The materialists make out that only humans are organisms with mind, because of complex brain. And thus nature is 'dead'. And when brain dies that's it. Whatever 'it' means...............they mean ...haha what Do they mean? whats 'it'
BUT the meaning of 'organism' includes what the very universe is doing. So when the individuals, be they humans or other species die what does this mean in a universe which itself is alive
This is all a deep Mystery. The scientsts will never pin it down, and hopefully musicians will have a twinkle in their eye when they play deep music...............because maybe only music played with heart can go where words cannot
