Ego & Afterlife Any existence in an afterlife, is not you. If your soul continues to exist after you die, that is not you, you are not a soul. You have a soul (if souls exist at all), but a part of you existing is not you. When you die, your life ends, and there are other lives lived, but those other lives are not you. Just like the person that was alive before you were born, is not you, the next person that is alive is not you. If you define You as that first person narrative, then there are many afterlives. There are other people that will live after you die, and that is your afterlife.
