:21:09
I keep thinking about
something you said.
:21:12
- Something I said?
- Yeah.
:21:15
About how you often feel like
you're observing your life...
:21:18
from the perspective of an old woman
about to die.
:21:21
- You remember that?
- Yeah. I still feel
that way sometimes.
:21:26
Like I'm looking back
on my life.
:21:29
Like my waking life
is her memories.
:21:31
Exactly.
:21:34
I heard that Tim Leary
said as he was dying...
:21:37
that he was looking forward
to the moment...
:21:40
when his body was dead,
but his brain was still alive.
:21:43
They say that there's still 6
to 12 minutes of brain activity
after everything is shut down.
:21:49
And a second of dream
consciousness, right,
:21:51
well, that's infinitely longer
than a waking second.
:21:54
- You know what I'm saying?
- Oh, yeah, definitely.
:21:56
For example, I wake up
and it's 1 0:1 2,
:21:59
and then I go back to sleep
and I have those long, intricate,
:22:02
beautiful dreams
that seem to last for hours,
:22:04
and then I wake up
and it's... 1 0:1 3.
:22:07
Exactly. So then 6 to 1 2 minutes
of brain activity,
:22:11
I mean, that could be
your whole life.
:22:14
I mean, you are that woman
looking back over everything.
:22:20
Okay, so what if I am?
Then what would you be in all that?
:22:22
Whatever I am
right now.
:22:24
I mean, yeah,
maybe I only exist in your mind.
:22:28
I'm still just as real
as anything else.
:22:32
Yeah.
:22:34
- I've been thinking also
about something you said.
- What's that?
:22:38
Just about reincarnation and where all
the new souls come from over time.
:22:44
Everybody always say
that they've been the reincarnation...
:22:48
of Cleopatra
or Alexander the Great.
:22:51
I always want
to tell them they were probably
some dumb fuck like everybody else.
:22:55
I mean, it's impossible.
Think about it.
:22:57
The world population has doubled
in the past 40 years, right?
