With our existence based on the notion that others know we exist, who actually knows who does and does not exist?

Knowing someone exists is not knowing they exist but knowing they existed.

We do not exist until we no longer exist

To know we no longer exist we must know that we once existed, thus pointing to existence after non-existence. For one to exist after they no-longer exist one must know they existed, didnt exist then existed again (life after death)

To think is to act, a thought is existence

For one to have knowledge of them thinking, they must of thought of them thinking.

To know that one is thinking a thought that thought must be thought by others.

For others to think your thought points to the notion that existence is based on others knowing that you thought, thus you exist.

Indeed, language is limitating factor.

We know we exist as others know we exist. For us to truly know we exist we must know we existed. For us to know we existed we must currently exist, thus pointing to life after death.

Alternatively, we dont exist.
