Richard,
When I was younger I read Superman comics. Your idea of a 'larger pattern'
sounds familiar. It reminds me of the Phantom Zone of the Superman comics,
where disembodied souls float around in another dimension.
It could be that there is such a Zone and Chris after he was murdered and
cremated entered such a place and in time will return to Earth as another
being.
But to me, it sounds like wishful thinking. I am reminded that Bertrand
Russell once said that religion's primary motivation is to shelter the
psyche from the fear of death. If there were such a zone and patterns do
exist on a higher level as you speculate, then this might mean that death is
an illusion and that our essence does not die.
I can see why such a concept would be attractive.
Who knows whether 'larger patterns' are anything but thoughts in our heads.
What is your attitude to parapsychology? Do you think that ESP is a fact?
And what is your view of ghosts and magic?
Fondly to you, Nathan
