LooTeKuKuR, Thanks for sharing the link to the interview. I will try to listen (or read?) the interview tomorrow. I don't know what he has said about life but it should be very painful to know you are going to die. Every body knows he/she is gonna die one day but to know the exact date and to know the remaining days of life is really painful.

There was other guy, whose interview and lecture were all over the youtube. He had lectured once he knew he was going to die and it was a sensational one. I forgot the name of the person at this time but if I remember I will try to put it in here. He died a few weeks ago.

Regarding the life after death, what I think is, probably the person who dies will know he/she died once he dies. He will feel as if he left the place and came to another place, where he has some other forgotten friends ready to welcome him to the new place.

Remember how we feel once we leave Nepal and come to the USA (or other foreign country)? We feel bad about leaving our family and close friends and once we come to the USA we meet some old lost friends waiting in airport and then we start finding some other friends who had left us long time back. Then we start forgetting about our family and friends back home. We take our qualification with us and start a new journey with that qualification. I think life after death is ditto. The only difference is that we don't get rebtel, msn, yahoo and the return ticket. Once you are gone, you are gone forever.

Probably after enjoying our life in this new place and acheiving all those unachieved goals and we retire and then get ready for new life in the world again. By that time we will get formatted like a computer to remove all memory and be born as a new child. For some people those formatting work might get corrupted and people start having those weird dreams about previous life etc...
