wow, from where did you pick this up?
Here and there and everywhere!
I take into account all sorts of things, like Near Death Experiences, and other experiences I've had.
Consciousness is not taught as a single entity which "enters". Personally I have not yet come across any sutta which states that consciousness remains after death. I do not understand how consciousness or sensory cognition arises without the physical body. I don't understand how sensory cognition could arise out of the physical body either, but based on a few experiences I've had, I do believe there can be consciousness outside of the body. But that consciousness would not be permanent.
