if the last instant of you life's conscious existence became timeless (in the sense that the passage of time was not relevant) then consciousness after death was possible because it no longer required physical changes.

Hey, CF~

I've tried to understand this in the context of the article. I'm still not sure. This would not be self aware consciousness, right? It seems to me that change is implicit in consciousness. At least, consciousness that had any awareness of either self or other would imply change. By self or other, I mean also--this or that. The awareness of this or that requires a shift. If consciousness was only this, then presumably it would be this--but how would it recognize it without a shift or change in energy?

If consciousness had no such awareness...what would it be?
