Some say that death is hardly different from a deep sleep.
After all, it's just a matter of opening and closing your eyes; there's not much to it.
If one were to delve deeper, then it would involve more complex issues of the soul.
If the death of the body is the first death, the death of the soul would be the second.
Then the third would be the extinction of all traces someone has left behind.
By that time, a person can be considered truly and completely dead, much like those ancient people who starved to death by the roadside, forgotten through the millennia, with no one left to remember their existence.
But this is still just a superficial interpretation of death.
Go deeper, for example:
Who was I before I was born?
Who will I be after I die?
Such questions swirled in the vague consciousness of Luo Xi.
