What is reality? How would you define a conscious spiritual being? What happens when I die, do I stop existing, even if I'm a spiritual being? These are just a few questions that I ask from time to time.

We can look up this word anywhere: ex·ist verb (used without object) 1. to have actual being; be: Another way of putting it: to exist is to have physical, material matter; to be subject to the senses. What really exists are those things with matter. Reality is all that which we experience with the five senses; reality is the space wherein things exist. Anything which does not have physical matter exist as ideas, of which do exist, inside your brain, which is itself matter. Ideas are physical matter, but what those ideas represent are not; in the same way, a DVD has matter, but the action-packed car scene the DVD streams does not, the images are representations of those things, i.e. the cars do not really exist except when they were filmed in reality. The film beyond that is similar to your brain; the film exists, but what the film represents does not. Spirits are defined as incorporeal i.e. without physical material, which as defined prior, must exist as ideas. A spiritual being, then, is defined as an incorporeal corporeal object; in other words a paradox, it doesn't play ball with the rules we've defined for reality: it must either be corporeal i.e. being i.e. pertaining to reality, or incorporeal i.e. spiritual i.e. existing as an idea. So when you die, you appear as a corpse to everyone else, but since your brain can no longer function to understand any idea, you become as nothing. Therefore, the afterlife is arational: it is beyond our comprehension because we cannot experience it. In other words, if it does exist, we'll never know, as it necessitates being unable to comprehend it to experience it, and since we cannot experience anything when we're dead, it's the same as it not existing. With this in mind, remember that you have one life, no eternal afterparty and no mulligans, so get busy living ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat an infected fruit from a magical tree.

Included in the others category. But Jews number far lesser when compared to Muslims or Christians. This is the proportion of major religious groups in the world. Christianity - 31.5% Muslim - 23.2% Unaffiliated - 16.3% Hindu - 15.0% Buddhist - 7.1% Folk - 5.9% Other - 0.8% Jewish - 0.2% http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_religious_populations

Now I may ask why Hinduism is not in the polling list when with 7.1% Buddhism is there ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Many reasons I think. Buddhism is a world religion, but Hinduism is more like an Indian religion. Also, Buddhism is a modern religion, based on a single prophet or preacher (just like Jesus in Christianity, prophet Mohammed in Islam), while Hinduism is a complex set of ancient and diverse beliefs. Buddhism is gaining a lot of followers world wide, through outreach activities. Hindus never believe in any outreach / missionary activity, and are normally against other people joining their religion (with some notable exceptions). Also, most importantly I heard that a Hindu can be an atheist as well.

Your parents are real? Are they real? The world is real, right? How do you know? The question is quite difficult. Do we or will we ever know true reality? Are we stuck in a world in which the best we can do is be approximately true?
