Scientists are still baffled by consciousness and questions about why we have it and how we have it constantly arising remain unanswered. One theory is that consciousness is created on a quantum, sub-atomic scale through energy which is constantly contained in the universe. The theory is based on Einstein's famous quote, when he said "Energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be changed from one form to another." Consciousness is and has been in the universe through quantum particles, and when you are born, it is channeled into a physical being. Each of us exists before we are born on Earth. Each of us is pure consciousness currently focused in a physical dimension. Science would typically say that life is random, ultimately stemming from the random birth of subatomic particles, but some don't agree with that. Mainstream science says that consciousness must be a side-effect of brain chemistry. Others believe that the brain merely affects consciousness. Consciousness is something fundamental to nature- it is stitched into the fabric of reality. Consciousness transcends time and space. If you start with the assumption that you exist as pure consciousness, then you must have existed before you were born. You are everywhere and everywhere. Our minds exist through energy which is contained in our bodies and is released once our physical beings cease in a process called biocentrism. When our physical bodies die, the energy of our consciousness could continue on a quantum level. There are an infinite number of universes, and everything that could possibly happen occurs in some universe. As a result, it is theorized that the consciousness continues to exist in a parallel universe.
@Vette888,
If consciousness is a biological function, then the kinetic energy—very highly organized—involved isn't destroyed, but greatly dissipates with the cessation of the biological processes, e.g. the damaging or destruction of those biological functions, death.
