'''[[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]].  
'''Agustín Pío Barrios''' was a Paraguayan composer and virtuoso performer of classical guitar music who was influenced by [[Theosophy]]. His teacher Viriato Díaz Pérez was a founder and first President of the first Theosophical Society lodge established in Paraguay. During the 1929 lecture tour of [[Curuppumullage Jinarājadāsa|C. Jinarajadasa]], the Paraguayan lodges were chartered into a national Section. Late in his life Barrios was also associated with Theosophist General Maximiliano Hernández Martínez (1882-1966), the President of El Salvador, who was also president of the Teotle Lodge and the General Secretary of the Section. Barrios toured extensively performing concerts, and composed more than 100 original works.


In the writings of [[Helena Petrovna Blavatsky|H. P. Blavatsky]] and the [[Masters of Wisdom]] the most frequent description of the different stages after physical death include: a) [[kamaloka]], b) [[gestation period]], c) [[devachan]], and d) [[reincarnation]].
