One day it will die like our material-physical body.
You gave the life to your kids and your kids will give life to their own kids.
What this has got to do with our own consciousness?
You are talking about material-physical life not consciousness life.
Have you got any evidence that you gave your kids the consciousness that they got?
You are confusing the matter with the consciousness yog.
No, I'm not confusing it. You made a claim and were attempting to argue for it.

world because this world is in no position to satisfy our thirst for infinite peace of mind and happiness
so if it is not here has got to be elsewhere.
And if it is elsewhere other than in the material-physical-mental world the only other place is the spiritual
world.
You said satisfaction of our thirst "has got to be" elsewhere. Then you tried to argue why.... and failed.
Having failed at that, you want to change the subject and shift the burden of proof.

Reversing the burden of proof...

In this case nothing come for free because the consciousness come from efforts.
And there's the inevitable changing of the subject...
So much for your argument. The minute it got tough, you threw it under a bus.

After many years of research and hearing thousands of stories, Dr. Morse claims that he's never heard a single account that made him think someone actually "left their body" during an episode.
