My friend died I'm having an existential crisis. I want to believe that I'll see him again in some sort of afterlife but when I think about it, it seems more likely that humans, being the only species cognizant of our mortality, created religion (which all have some form of afterlife/rebirth/spirt realm/etc) as a coping mechanism for the fear of death and knowing you'll never see your friends and loved ones again.

So, based on our current scientific understanding, is there any physically possible way someone's consciousness could be transported in another part of the universe or different realm of existence?
