Yes. That seems to be at the crux of the matter. Many people have the belief that "you" is your consciousness. It's impossible to speak those things which cannot be spoken and it's impossible to think those things that cannot be thought.
The question "What happens when you die?" will inevitably end up being an equation/position/belief that revolves around what the definition of "you" is. Which is to say, it's a matter of personal identity.
