Mike,
You stated in a different thread something along the lines of not believing in god/gods because there is no evidence. You should apply the same criteria to any claim regarding eternal concsciousness. New age hacks that peddle this tripe never provide evidence for their claims; never. They also try to camouflage their chicanery with the use of scientific sounding words: electromagnetic, microwaves, frequency ranges, etc.
You also stated elsewhere that you like to keep an open mind.

I am treating this thread as a sincere inquiry and offer Sagan's quote to you as personal ammunition to help maintain your skepticism while investigating various truth claims.
