Everything is slipping away from us, and illusory at best for the brief moment that we “have” it…
People who have near death experiences come back saying that the afterlife is more real than this life, and that the clarity of it makes this life seem like a dream.
Is that why we are so forgetful and vague?

“Thus shall you think of all this fleeting world:
A star at dawn, a bubble in a stream,
A flash of lightning in a summer cloud,
A flickering lamp, a phantom, and a dream.” - The Diamond Sutra
