people still remembered and understood it. That’s what I saw. Then, I experienced this multiverse of death not as something supernatural, unique, or even spiritual, but from a purely human perspective. I even told my friend:

– You know, it’s so strange. Why was I given this information now – that I will die, physically, and that everyone will bury me – right when I’m looking at it from a human angle? If I had been in my spiritual state, in the Spirit in which I write my books, I wouldn’t have been afraid at all. I wouldn’t have even given it much thought. I would’ve just said, “It’s God’s will. Whatever is meant to be, will be. The most important thing is that I am honest with everyone and pure. But here, I was seeing it in a more mundane way. That day, I approached all of this in such an ordinary way... and it felt intentional, as if I were being shown one particular tone, one specific facet of this multiverse of death – what it feels like.

And you know what I felt? It was as if I became a person who had just learned they were going to die soon. And they showed it to me through my own example, physically, so that I could fully experience it and, of course, describe it in my book. I’ll say this: when a person starts fearing death, sensing it, anticipating it – whether due to upcoming events or because they are terminally ill – two things can awaken in them. That is, one of two possible reactions will emerge, let’s put it that way. If a person is light, they will remain humble. They won’t rush to indulge in life’s pleasures, they won’t spiral into sin and recklessness, they won’t lower themselves to that level. Such a person will simply try to stay on their path, continuing their work as before. And more than anything, they won’t be thinking about themselves, but about how to cause as little trouble as possible for their loved ones when they’re gone. That’s how a light person thinks when they find themselves, so to speak, in this multiverse of death.
But when a person is dark, certain thoughts might creep in – like, “What do I have to lose? I’ll just drink myself into oblivion, drown myself in drugs.” Or, “What do I have to lose? I’ll go gamble away all my money in a casino.” “What do I have to lose? I’ll find everyone who ever wronged me and beat them up. I’m going to die soon anyway.” “What do I have to lose? I’ll start jumping around nude on the internet, in social media.” It’s as if, when a person comes
