What happens when we die?

I believe that when we die, our soul comes back in a kind of neutral state until it finds another life to partake in. May sound weird, but it isn't. What strengthens my view is what I have experienced in my own life.

1. I have had an out of body experience. I died and for a few moments could see clearly my own body on the bed. I could hear all that the nurses were saying, see what they were doing. They asked me about it later and they affirmed that even though I was clinically dead, what I saw and heard was accurate.

2. I believe that the soul leaves the body and that the body is indeed just the wrapping. I saw my husband die and experienced that what was left of him was the packaging and that indeed the soul of the man I loved had departed.

3. Furthering my belief, I believe that the life you come back as depends upon the life you lived and also that the amount of suffering you have in death also depends upon the style and manner in which you have lived your life. Take for example when my mother died. Her suffering was enormous. Her weight was too hard for her to bear, as she had been a selfish person all of her life.

When humans judge others, I feel they have no right to, and that all people will be judged in the end, by being given a life the next time around that they deserve. This explains a great deal to me about infant mortality, why kids die, and why we should trust in God to decide which way our lives go, doing the best we can as human beings to understand that others are different to us, and that no one has the right to judge anyone else.
