<strong>ETERNITY</strong> <strong>HAS</strong> <strong>ALREADY</strong> <strong>BEGUN</strong><br />
idence that you are dealing with the matter itself. As we have seen,<br />
you can experience the same things in dreams, with no corresponding<br />
physical counterparts. Furthermore, the violence of a sensation<br />
does not alter the fact that the sensation in question occurs in the<br />
brain. This is a clearly proven scientific fact.<br />
The reason why some people think that a fast-moving bus on the<br />
motorway or an accident caused by that bus are striking proofs of<br />
their dealing with the physical existence of matter is that the image<br />
concerned is seen and felt as so real that it deceives one. The images<br />
around them, for instance the perfect perspective and depth of the<br />
motorway, the perfection of the colors, shapes and shadows they<br />
contain, the vividness of sound, smell and hardness, and the completeness<br />
of the logic within that image can deceive some people.<br />
On account of this vividness, some people forget that these are actually<br />
perceptions. Yet no matter how complete and flawless the<br />
perceptions in the mind may be, that does not alter the fact that they<br />
are still perceptions. If someone is hit by a car while walking along<br />
the road, or is trapped under a house that collapses during an earthquake,<br />
or is surrounded by flames during a fire, or trips up and falls<br />
down the stairs, he still experiences all these things in his mind, and<br />
is not actually confronting the reality of what happens.<br />
When someone falls under a bus, the bus in his mind hits the<br />
body in his mind. The fact that he dies as a result, or that his body is<br />
completely shattered, does not alter this reality. If something a person<br />
experiences in his mind ends in death, Allah replaces the images<br />
He shows that person with images belonging to the Hereafter.<br />
Those who are unable to understand the truth of this now on honest<br />
reflection will certainly do so when they die.<br />
The Example of a Shared Nervous System<br />
Let us consider Politzer's car crash example: If the injured person's<br />
nerves traveling from his five senses to his brain, were connected<br />
in parallel to another person's—Politzer's, for instance—then
