Achieving the nirvana you die as a human being psychologically during the life of your body.
Then after only the body dies.
Without achieving nirvana during the life, upon physical death you die physically and psychologically.

So why sit in uncomfortable positions until then?

It's not a requirement. It's a part of just one method in achieving it.

“Before enlightenment; chop wood, carry water. After enlightenment; chop wood, carry water.”

chop wood,
stay firey.

carry water,
flow

After the death of a person who has attained nirvana, liberation, or perfection, what happens? You do not simply gain non-existence (like the sunyavadis, the worshippers of the void), Gautama Buddha says the experience is unexplainable, Krishna says that you will share his own opulences. But what does that mean, what really happens after you escape from this cycle of birth and rebirth?

This is NOT philosophy its religion.
