If we are going to be immortal then eventually we will experience everything there is to experience, we will have nothing new to discover and experience then everything will be boring???

I don't know what to do it is a scary thought and I am afraid of boredom!!

Satan said he was composing music and I was thinking even after being alive for so long he is composing music eventually all chord progressions, music notes possible will be composed by someone after large amount of time and nothing new will be able to be composed so I don't know what to do I want to live but I am scared of eternity because of this!

What should I do?
 
There is no end to the mystery of existence, there is also no end of complete joy from this as well.
 
The universe is constantly evolving, so there will be allways new things to do and new places to visit

Hello. Existential crises are my specialty. I have known many. Ask me anything.

I have considered this and it once bothered me in the past. But life is limitless. Creation is unending, and you can be a creator yourself. Worrying about these things is a symptom of our limited minds. I briefly experienced higher levels of consciousness in the past and the bliss and peace and... zen is unlike anything that can be imagined on this plane of existence that we're currently on. And I'm sure that that was still a fairly low level of consciousness.

These things will not trouble you. You will become aware of the scale of the cosmos and the potential that exists in everything. The Gods aren't concerned with these questions, they simply continue to be, and continue to live and create in accordance with nature.

There will always be problems to solve, even for beings as advanced as the Gods. Just look at one of their creations - us - and all that went into creating and perfecting us, not to mention the existential threats that we continue to face and have yet to face. You will never be without anything to do or things to learn and adapt to, and there will always be times for play and simply enjoying life and appreciating nature.

What do you mean by that? The universe is limitless in the sense? You mean size or what? Are you saying the universe is infinite? But I heard the universe ends and is reborn again. Can living beings survive through that?

Our universe is infinite in size and age, it has no end, but even if you assume the universe ends and is reborn, that is an infinite cycle in itself. Rest assure there will always be something for you to experience.

Can blocked or bad 6th chakra cause nihilism and existential crisis?

More likely it has to do with programming and brainwashing that has to be undone to be free. But yeah, blocked chakras play a role as well.

I was half awake some sort of trance like state and I started doing wim hof breathing on reflex or something. As I was taking the breaths, after 4-5 or something maybe 7-8 breaths I felt like my head was going to explode. I used to always get the same feeling from long deep meditation sessions. Whenever I tried to intro trance that is.

You shouldn't do something like that, because that can be dangerous. Instead, work on increasing your capacity to handle a higher workload and overall control of your actions.

You can also direct the energy out of you as an option when you are overcharged.
 
The latest theory, besides the 'multiverse', is that the universe eventually dies and is reborn into another state. If this is indeed correct, then the same would happen to us - infinity and beyond!
