Q :~ What happens to a person after death according to Advaitins?
Santthosh Kumaar:~ A person belongs to the dualistic illusion. A person is born, lives, and dies within the dualistic illusion.
A person is the birth entity. The one, which is born, lives, dies in this world, is not the Self’ because the Self’ is the invisible and unborn Soul, which is birthless and deathless.
The Self is not a person, but the Self is the invisible Soul, therefore, the individual experience of birth, life, and death, and the world is nothing to do with the innvsible Soul, Self, which is birthless and deathless, because it is ever ever-formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.
From a dualistic perspective, the individual experience of birth, life, death, and the world is a reality, whereas from a nondualistic perspective, the individual experience of birth, life, death, and the world is an illusion. From the Advaitc perspective, the individual who is bound by birth, life, and death does not exist in reality.
The orthodoxy accepts the experience of birth, life, death, and world as reality, whereas Sage Sankara declares the world is unreal; Brahman alone is real.
Thus, the experience of birth, life, and death happening within the illusory world is bound to be an illusion. The illusion has no value from the Advaitic perspective. So the Soul alone is real and eternal. .: ~Santthosh Kumaar
