My guess is that no one from soul dimension would want to bother with a thawed out body. The point of reincarnation is soul growth, and that includes whatever happens during infancy and childhood, etc.
The delight of this school is guaranteed death. Death transports our immortal souls back to the love and laughter of Reality, and away from this delusion.
The question of this thread is:
" What are the consequences of achieving physical immortality?"
And to answer that, I can only suppose, eternity in a body, even if it were a healthy body, would probably lead to idiocy or insanity.
If 52midnight is correct, and "consciousness" can be technologically attached to an avatar . . . . Something only the Very Wealthy among us could think of doing . . . . Then all I can imagine is a very dangerous and violent insanity.
What is this "consciousness" ???
We are not our bodies, and we are not the constant thinking in our brains.
This constant thinking is, I think, created to hold the veil in place, to make us think that we are conscious and that this life is "real."
While living in our bodies, our subconscious instincts and emotions and obsessions, trump the logic of brain thinking all the time, for both good and ill.
A detached part of us observes this "human self." (The I Am One Part. The I Am All Things and I Am No Thing at the same moment, part. The Immortal Soul part.)
So this "consciousness ??" is trapped in a machine for hundreds or thousands of years ??? Oh, I pray that those in charge of caring for these bionic avatar machines, awakes to compassion, and pulls the plug.
