Platt] Death is the end of life, what I would call First-Order Reality. [Arlo] Disagree, Platt. "Death" is an analogy we use to understand the absence of patterns. Many cultural analogies saw this not as an "end", but as a "transition". Your statement "is the end of life" is one, particular analogy "man" has come up with to understand this absence.
--------------------- John: And I would add to Platt and Arlo's dialogue, that death is certainly not the end of life. It might be the end of "a" life... Andre: The end of biological patterns of value? John: But if the isolated self is an illusion, then death is simply the cessation of an illusion. Andre: Death is the confrontation/resolution/progression with/of/into the illusion of separatenes. (the Tibettan bardo state). John: therefore, Quality is an illusion. Andre: Can it be any other? Of course IT is an illusion.
