That which you essentially are is immortal. That aspect lives on. The body doesn't live on. The conditioned thinking doesn't live on. A reason you don't know this stuff right now, is because of what is going on in your head; you are attaching to and identifying with the conditioned thinking and that is forming an illusory self which you believe you are.
Take no thought; don't attach, don't identify; what remains? Don't attempt to logically work it out. Do it. What remains? Experiment. Experience. Realize. More haiku from
Richard Hay (pdf):
The only way I
Can be other than I am
Is by thinking so.
Perfect knowledge lies
In being that which I am—
Without taking thought.
Thinking collapses
Man’s potential for divine
Conscious awareness.
Separation from
An Absolute God is a
Product of belief.
Thinking and knowing
Are mutually exclusive
States of awareness.
