'''[[Life after Death]]''' is a topic of perpetual interest. According to the [[Theosophy|Theosophical]] teachings after the [[death]] of the body, [[consciousness]] undergoes a series of transformations. The tendencies, emotions, thoughts, memories, and aspirations that were part of the [[Principle#Individuality_and_personality|personality]] are sorted out. Anything that belonged to the entirely personal and selfish aspect is discarded, while all that was of a generous or unselfish nature is preserved and assimilated by the [[Soul#Human soul|soul]].
