Trees, men, insects, animals, etc, all live differently because their assemblage points are in extremely different positions, or you could say, their
chakras are in very different arrangements. Because they live in a fundamentally different way, energetically speaking, they also die in a different way.
Some types of beings shed their physical bodies but remain virtually unchanged energetically, it isn't magic, it's just the nature and physics of the
expanded dimensions. Here's something you never heard from Castaneda, but it was implied often. What we call our "identity", our personality
and mind, is cultivated on the surface of the energy body, it's the shell of the egg so to speak. Now, all beings have a surface to their energetic
cocoon, but not all of them store their identity or sense of self there, some beings store their minds within the interior of the energy body instead. The
down side of this is that it is harder to develop a sense of self from that position, but, the upside is that it is far less vulnerable to the eagle at death.
It's like the lizard that readily loses its tail to predators so that it may escape to live another day. We don't know that trick, but other beings
do. They lose their "skin" at death, but it contained nothing valuable, so they don't suffer a loss of "self" at death, they lose
something that they didn't plan on keeping anyway. So, the old sorcerers knew this, and followed the examples of the beings whose energy was the most
flexible and least affected by death. That method is what makes them "death defiers." By moving the assemblage points of their dreaming bodies in a
radical fashion, they were able to preserve their sense of self after death, not as "ghosts, but as functioning beings with purpose and a destiny. There
are of course many other "end game" paths besides this one, but this gives you an idea of what such a path might involve.
