It sounds to me like you are a substance dualist along the Cartesian tradition. I have a few questions for you, then:
1. How can our spiritual component have a causal effect on our physical component without itself being physical?
2. Is there any physical evidence that we have a spiritual component?
3. Is there any spiritual evidence that we have a spiritual component?
4. Why does your theory of substance dualism lead you to claim that "we are all part of one unified existence after this life"?
Those were the thoughts I had immediately after reading your post. Let me know what you think!
