“What happens when you die?” This fundamental question has puzzled humanity for centuries. The mystery surrounding death has led people to search for answers, influenced by a deep curiosity, fear, and a desire for understanding. Various cultures and religions have offered explanations, but one modern thinker, Chris Langan, has shared his unique perspective.
Chris Langan, a rancher from the United States, is known not just for his lifestyle but for his intellect. Langan gained significant attention for his development of the Cognitive-Theoretic Model of the Universe (CTMU). His theories suggest that reality operates as a “self-simulation,” a view he claims can be used to prove the existence of God, the soul, and the afterlife, all through mathematics.
Langan, who reportedly has an IQ that exceeds even the likes of Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking, shared his views on the afterlife during an appearance on Curt Jaimungal’s podcast On the Theories of Everything.
Langan believes that death does not mark the end of existence. Instead, he theorizes that death represents a shift in the “syntax” of existence, meaning that it is a transition to another dimension rather than a permanent cessation. According to Langan, the process of death is not the end of consciousness, but rather a transformation.
“The termination of your relationship with your particular physical body is not the end,” he said. “Death is moving toward the origin of reality, where you may be provided with another kind of body to continue existing.”
For Langan, after death, a person does not simply vanish from existence but enters a new phase of life in another dimension. This new reality would involve leaving behind the old physical body, but one would continue to exist in a different form. Langan further explained that memories from one’s previous life could be erased, as people might be in a “state of meditation,” where recollections of their former life fade away.
Langan’s theories provide a unique blend of metaphysical thinking and mathematical logic. His Cognitive-Theoretic Model of the Universe seeks to merge mathematical principles with the mysteries of the universe, offering a way to understand the afterlife from a scientific viewpoint.
According to Langan, the afterlife is not just a religious or spiritual concept, but something that can be explained through logic and mathematics. Whether one agrees or disagrees with his conclusions, Langan’s perspective opens a new avenue for thinking about life, death, and what lies beyond.
In the end, Langan encourages people to let go of their fear of death, proposing that what comes after is not a final end but a continuation of existence in another form or dimension.
