Death is not a departure of the soul from the body – in can be so only in the road of opinion – but a departure of the body from the soul, as it were, that is, the rectification of cognition, having the mind to rely completely on the road of truth, whereby the opinions fall off and all the illusions they bring into the soul disappear as well. However, to retain the true monistic character of the system, the immortality of the soul has to be denied. Humans are temporarily brought into being as thoughts of Being or as its dream, and eventually disappear since what is important, is the unity of Being.
