01. Why is there something rather than nothing?
Can you rephrase the question

02. Is our universe real?
What is real ? is the moot question. Only immutable is real

03. Do we have free will?
Yes You are free in all respect if you can watch and analyse you brain generating thoughts

04. Does God exist?
Depends on your definition of God. yes there is some force which controls and binds the Universe from outside the concept of space and time.

05. Is there life after death?
death --> Soul gets a new body --> Birth --->Life from young to Old ---> Death.

06. Can you really experience anything objectively?
Too broad a Question for me

[DARIUS]

1. Because we are there to perceive the somethingness as well as the nothingness. Without us there is nothing.

2. As long as we are alive and naive its real. Or rather the universe is an embodiment if our mind and going by that logic our existence and sphere of existence is oir own imagination.

3 Given the above two conclusions all we have is free will. Karma as one might say.

4 God exists in our own contemplation. We are divine and part of divinity i.e. God.

5 There is a new life after death but a new life. Maybe we travel through some wormholes and are born in some alternate or parallel universe after death and reincarnate in the same family and in similar surroundings.

6 No we cannot unless we reach a certain spiritual plane.

7 The best moral systemnis absolute ahimsa. With doing only that which is much needed to survive.

8 Perceivable manifestation or representation of the human intellect Vis a Vis Maths and science or more precisely an expression of our intellectual genetics enabling us to tap into those genes.

9 Mind is not independent of body since our mind or rather psychology is governed bybour genes.

10 Yes! Soul is independent of the two.

01. Why is there something rather than nothing?
Something does exist while nothing does not exist

02. Is our universe real?
Why not? You can observe, feel, experience it

03. Do we have free will?
Off course. I am sure you started this topic by your own free will and no one was there to put gun over your head to start this topic

04. Does God exist?
Yes it exist for me but my definition of God is eternal, independent, self sufficient being with no beginning no END. Dependent beings cannot cause themselves. They are dependent on their causes. If there is no independent being, then the whole chain of dependent beings is dependent on nothing and could not exist. But they do exist. Therefore there is an independent being.

05. Is there life after death?

Again Yes for me because i believe in my scripture and it mention " And they say, “There is not but our worldly life; we die and live (i.e. some people die and others live, replacing them) and nothing destroys us except time.” And they have of that no knowledge; they are only assuming. And when Our verses are recited to them as clear evidences, their argument is only that they say, “Bring [back] our forefathers, if you should be truthful.” Say, “God causes you to live, then causes you to die; then He will assemble you for the Day of Resurrection, about which there is no doubt,” but most of the people do not know.

06. Can you really experience anything objectively?
Objectivity exit but our perception of objective things is quiet subjective

07. What is the best moral system?
My religious beliefs are source of Morals for me


08. What are numbers?
numbers are symbol to convey certain ideas/information just like words/languages/colours
09. Is Mind independent of body ?

10. Is Soul independent of Mind and Body ?
They are interconnected in the sense that understanding them individually cannot be complete without understanding how they are related to each others. The human body is just an instrument that incubates and sustains the brain which houses the human mind, from which the self develops and evolves throughout a persons lifetime on earth
