Chris Langan has an incredibly mathematical answer about the universe and death
Death is something that all of us have dreaded at one point or another, but one man doesn’t think it’s necessarily the end.
The man who is alleged to have an IQ between 190 and 210 (that’s a lot higher than Albert Einstein’s) thinks he has the answer to finally figure out what death means and we shouldn’t be afraid of it.
Chris Langan is renowned for his Cognitive-Theoretic Model of the Universe (CTMU) thinking which is a theory that tries to explain the nature of reality.
The CTMU puts forward the belief that reality is a self-configuring, self-processing language and that our own universe operates as a computational syntax.
Confused? Me too.
Basically, it means that the concept of death is on a new dimension in our computer system of the universe.
It’s like the Theory of Everything.
Instead of being the end, death might instead be a shift in the ‘syntax’ of our existence.

Or a transition from one form of being to another within the computational structure.
Think: The Matrix.
Essentially, it’s like reincarnation, but in another dimension.
Langan opened up about the concept of ‘death’ during an appearance on the Theories of Everything with Curt Jaimungal podcast.
He said: “That’s the termination of your relationship with your particular physical body that you have at this present time.
“When you are retracted from this reality, you go back up toward the origin of reality.
“You can be provided with a substitute body, another kind of terminal body that allows you to keep on existing.”
According to Langan, death does not mean that you cease to exist.
Instead, upon death, he believes our consciousness moves out of what we know as our world and towards the origin of reality, which isn’t the afterlife.
It’s a lot more complex than that.
It’s like the reality.

Or something that resembles breaking out of a simulation (Earth and life) and being thrown into the mechanics of the machine.
And seeing what is truly happening around you and everyone else for the first time.
It’s a lot like The Matrix, just without the goo pods.
Apparently, you might not even remember who you were when you go off to the other dimension, as Langan stated: “You can have – these memories can be – nothing goes out of existence in the math.
“Your memories can always be pulled back out, but there’s no reason to do that usually, OK?
“Why cling to memories of a world in which you are no longer instantiated?
“So, there are certain automatic psychological things that happen on death, at the moment of death.”
After you die, you’ll be in a state of meditation or something that looks similar.
He added: “Now you’re basically meditating, seeing everything change. However, you exist that way right now.
“Arguably, all of your lifetimes, if you were to be reincarnated again and again and again, all of those reincarnations are meta-simultaneous.
“There is a sense in which they all occur at once in the non-terminal domain.”
It’s like being in a supercomputer where everything is around you, but nothing is at the same time.
Like being in a hyperbaric chamber of your own realities where everything is real, yet nothing truly is.
So, every incarnation we experience might be happening simultaneously.
You’re transcending time as we know it.
The afterlife, according to Langan, involves a profound shift in our entire being, which moves past our physical and mental selves.
Now, that doesn’t mean that God doesn’t exist.
According to Langan, who spoke with CTMU Radio, God exists in the way that we are naming something ‘identifiable’.
It means that God is the identity of certain properties that we can see around us, not necessarily a person in the heavens.
It’s really hard to wrap your head around it, but you’ve got to admit that it’s cool.
