>Another NDEr says, “It’s like living in a two-dimensional black and white world here, compared to multicolor, multi-sensory VR immersion there… [After coming back, even sunrises] were ugly for a while” (Shaman Oaks; Amberts, 2022, p. 68). An NDEr who’s an artist explains, “There are three primary, three secondary, and six tertiary colors in the visible light spectrum. Here [in the NDE], I was seeing a visible light spectrum with at least 80 new primary colors” (Williams, 2019; Amberts, 2022, p. 67).

I felt this way strongly after taking acid when I was like 19 (not so much that the world sucks but that it's just a shadow of the world beyond.) That was almost 15 years ago and I haven't ripped since, gonna eat a bunch of mushrooms soon and see what happens.

What a load of horseshit.
>Wow! Da afterlife has new colors!
You know if the human eye was suddenly capable of seeing new colors like infrared and ultraviolet, it wouldn't make things look more beautiful. It would make things uglier. We're used to seeing people with certain skin tones and hair colors and we expect trees and skies to be certain colors. If you woke up tomorrow and everyone's skin suddenly had purple blemishes and a solid white shirt suddenly looked like a haze of yellow green nonsense and trees were no longer green and the sky was no longer blue you'd be disgusted.

Hate to be that guy, but there isn't a single coherent model for selfless karmic rebirth and the fact different schools felt the need to "correct" or rework the idea until you end up with things like the bardos and alaya-vijnana is proof of it

I know two tetrachromats, identical twins, it has done nothing spectacular for their aesthetic sense. Having more colors barely even comes up in their regular life. They are four colors within the regular visible light spectrum though. Maybe UV cones would be enlightening somehow.

That's not how it works, anyway. More cone varieties does not mean more colors. I saw a good video on the topic once but fuck if I can find it again, so this will have to do:
https://www.jhunewsletter.com/article/2015/12/mantis-shrimp-myth-about-vision-debunked
Point is, different cones respond to different wavelengths, and it's the difference in excitation between the cones that allows us to differentiate colors. Adding more varieties within the same visible range of frequencies does nothing.

This is some BS. "There is no experience of nothing to conscious things, so therefore you'll still be perceiving a feeling of continous presence after you die, just through someone else" is such a strange argument.
The TC/rad example makes no sense. TC/rad is NOT TC, in any way that anyone can recognize (including himself). He doesn't even share the same brain, how do we know he shares any connection in perception? How does the fact that TC/rad is present and aware in any way imply that TC has continued as perception in any way?

More seekers of secular immortality, desperately coping with the fact that one day they will exist solely in the past.
