"According to atheist views, what happens to a person (human being, animal etc.) after his/her death? What about the individuality. There should be some information on this on the page." -you

Nothing.

People have a wide range of emotions on nothing being what results after death. From looking at it as a curse, to something beautiful. The reason for no info, is because what happens after death is not something that crosses most atheists minds. --Dana60Cummins (talk) 22:21, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

<<what happens after death is not something that crosses most atheists minds>>

Hey but death is a fact! We must think why we are born? where were we before our birth? what will happen to us after death. This is a million dollar question. how can they just say nothing. That means life of a human being has no purpose. A person is born, lives for 70 or 100 years, and then dies, to become nothing? what is the purpose of this life? Just to enjoy this lifespan of say 70 years to the fullest extent?

You will certainly not agree that a wristwatch came from the sea all by itself, or that a Cray supercomputer dropped from the sky without any purpose! Now certainly human beings have not created themselves. One has to logically agree that there has to be a superior intelligent being who has created life. The wrist watch has a purpose, the computer has a purpose.

We are conscious beings. We have five material senses plus the mind. We can see, hear, smell, touch, taste & think, feel and will, because we are conscious. We have to go to the root of consciousness (Can modern science really help?). Where does this consciousness come from? We have to answer these questions first.

Another thing, what do atheists understand by "mind". What is the "mind" according to atheists? Mayurvg (talk) 14:38, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia's purpose is not to debate religion, or to try to decipher the meaning of life. It's just to provide concrete, proven facts. Brambleclawx 14:39, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

"Hey but death is a fact!" Yes, indeed, birth, life, and death are verifiable events that follow physical laws. Also, you might want to check into the article on mind. 98.222.21.24 (talk) 03:57, 27 June 2010 (UTC)

purpose of this life

"what is the purpose of this life? Just to enjoy this lifespan of say 70 years to the fullest extent? "

That's my take on it.--Dana60Cummins (talk) 20:15, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

What follows is an extract from the booklet "Tattva Viveka" (A Vaishnava literature) by Bhaktivinoda Thakura

Text 2

Who am I? What is this world? What relation have I with this world?" To learn the truth, a soul in this material world will always ask himself these questions.

Many days after their birth, human beings finally attain good knowledge of sense objects. The outside world perceived by the senses is called "viśaya" (the world of sense objects). As his sensory powers grow, a child becomes increasingly aware of the world of sense objects. Tasting pleasure there, he is drawn to the world of sense objects. Thus attracted to the world of sense objects, a human being thinks of and acts for nothing else. Becoming a constant companion, sound, touch, form, taste, and smell gradually turn the human mind into their slave.

In this way human beings are plunged in the world of sense objects. Death must come, and when it does, I will have no relationship with this world of senses objects." When this thought arises, a fortunate person turns from the world of sense objects and yearns to know the truth. He then asks these questions: Who am I, the person who perceives this world? What is this world? What relation have I with this world?"

Because of their different natures, they who ask these questions attain a great variety of answers. Only a soul situated in his original spiritual form attains the true answers.Mayurvg (talk) 16:21, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
