“Life is dream-like to say the least.  Most of us have no recollection of what happened before we were born.  Looking back at one’s past, even the present, seems as hazy and obscure as a dream does.  It is common knowledge that it is impossible to die in a dream – that doing so will jolt you awake.  Why would this dream-like experience of life be any different?  To die in this dream is to be born into another.”
