SHROUD OF TURIN/2020

Photography is also philosophy is the study of general and fundamental questions about existence, knowledge, values, reason, mind, and language. Everyone usually lives in this world from the first-person perspective, but when I look at the world from the perspective of God, I have a question: Where does "my consciousness" come from and why is it attached to me instead of thousands? Thousands of other individuals? When I die, will "My consciousness" disappear, or will it be transferred to another newborn body, will the consciousness of the other living body become the next "My consciousness"? Is this the so-called soul? In Eastern religion, there is a concept of rebirth. The soul will be transferred from one body to another, and life will be repeated like this forever-this concept is just not accepted by Judaism, Christianity and Islam. But recent psychiatrists have found some evidence that some people can recall their previous lives-the idea of reincarnation has gradually become a modern advocate. Many people cannot recall the "previous life" because they did not receive the entire memory. They just got some tiny bits of these memories. These tiny fragments are enough to cause a person's confusion and sadness. Almost everyone has completed their journey of life in pain and confusion, and only a few can safely die in joy and ease. Only a few people can leave this world without thought. Such people will not leave any memory traces behind them and will not disturb anyone else. They just disappear in the universe. They will not leave any fragments of memory.  Scott Fitzgerald who Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald was an American fiction writer, whose works helped to illustrate the flamboyance and excess of the Jazz Age said famously that "he who invented consciousness would have a lot to be blamed for." But he also forgot that without consciousness, he would have no access to true happiness and even the possibility of transcendence.
