The Illusion of the Afterlife

We have this afterlife where we assume we will be completely cut off from sources of enjoyment, which is represented by the state of wealth. But Lucretius says, look, is it like there's an enjoyment that we're afraid that we won't enjoy? Yes. Like the world will go on enjoying and we won't have access to that jui saunce,. That kind of like fucks with our whole psyche. There's a transition from the nothingness before death to the nothingness after death. There's no in between because when we die, the very first, what happens is Lucretius thinks of the body as this airtight vessel.
