Survivalism (life after death)

Survivalism is a type of belief where someone believes that, even after they die, their life and spirit continue in some form. People who believe in survivalism usually believe that, when their body dies, their soul or consciousness will be reborn in a new body or form. They might believe in a higher power, like God, or in a spirit world where their conscious mind stays alive. They might also believe that their actions while they were alive will determine where they go after they die, such as Heaven or Hell.
