Abstract

The essence of Bekhterev's understanding of human immortality can be summarized in two propositions. First, it denies the traditional Christian belief that there is an individual soul that survives the body's death and then, according to the person's merits and the Grace of God, passes on to eternal reward or punishment. Second, it affirms that the individual does live on beyond death in his or her influences upon the thoughts and actions of others.
