You can't perceive the passage of time when you are dead, so you're just going to experience dying and then immediate rebirth after the countless eons pass for that rare moment where entropy spontaneously reverses to form your mind again.

That's exactly my problem with just imagining before my birth! That period of nonexistence literally ended spontaneously! I know for sure that happened once, I don't see why it can't happen again.

Then why should the next life feel like it is a continuation of this one?

I don't think it should necessarily, just that the conscious feeling of experience should start back up again.

Sure. If you give a mystical explanation the benefit of the doubt. An explanation in obvious conflict with “brain qualia” and “if it feels like me.”
