Abhaya,
Please explain without energy how is there life?
A human requires energy to live, so does every other form of life.
I guess my wording doesn't convey my thought as well as I would like it to. Even the Buddha refered to past existences. I'm really not sure how to word what I want to say in another way.
I used the term god or diety as an example, there are non-Buddhists that visit this web site as well as Buddhists. You seem very hung up on this example. Sorry to have caused this hang up.
If there is no consciousness that does migrate from existence to existence please explain Alayavijnana. Which does state that our Karma may follow us for countless kalpas before it ripens.
I guess the best word to use is mind. And our Karma does have an effect on future existences, if you believe in rebirth. The Buddha did point out that certain actions, Karma, will have an effect on the future existence and the realm in which this existence takes place.
With Metta
