If you had a choice of afterlife, what would you choose? What would it look like?
I do not think that anyone can ever know what the afterlife will be like, even though some people have conjured up images in their heads from reading Scriptures. I believe we can know general things as noted below but we cannot ever know the specifics.If you had a choice of afterlife, what would you choose? What would it look like?
Can you cite the Scriptures that refer to this kind of afterlife?Heaven and Earth united, God and all spirits fully visible, all the animals and plants that died previously enjoying their existence to the fullest extent that they were made to, in the presence of the Lord and His Saints.
I'd be the eternal Supreme being of all creation.If you had a choice of afterlife, what would you choose? What would it look like?

but where? Will you be @ a point in space? I hope you will not say "beyond space."or remain as existence/consciousness/bliss (satcitananda).
but where? Will you be @ a point in space? I hope you will not say "beyond space."
Will you be involuntarily aware of being at a point?
Or will you say "I am omnipresent by inference" ?
Or will you actually sense omnipresence?
I actually do. I can come back here to earth and live another life or remain as existence/consciousness/bliss (satcitananda).
So what? Since you are showing a choice, time and space have not gone away."Will you" implies a point in the future...or more accurately, time. "Where" implies space. These are Maya.
The one who claims they CAN either come back here to earth or "remain as existence/conciousness/bliss"Who senses? With what apparatus might I sense this?
Namaste
At first , in your reply there was time , and space as well. While the first part is directly mAyA , in the latter part of the sentence and in the whole sentence there is choice involved => mAyA. Please see :

VERBS: come back, remain. Remain is also by choice per the earlier part of your sentence and hence in that same framework, showing your awareness of choice and will or even observation of conciousness.
PREPOSITIONS: here to <object> ; <verb> AS <object>
No afterlife at all. Just life. And eternal youth. But I guess aging and death must also have a purpose.If you had a choice of afterlife, what would you choose? What would it look like?
Aha! So choice => mind ? God has a .mind.So how does an avatar (such as Krishna in the the Bhagavad Gita) come to appear in vyavaharika for the aid of jivas who have trapped themselves in the cycle of samsara if not by some form of choice?
