This is what Cloud Atlas was trying to say.

Thank you Clif, for laying this out - this is the most cogent explanation of how the process works that I've ever come across. It certainly resonates with my own Clear Drop. Fractal vibrations, at every level. Subatomic to soul; social interaction and reincarnation, and how they fit together.

I just hope these recent ruminations don't speak to any imminent mortality concerns you might have. Your presence is needed in the Matterium for some time yet, you bald old bastard.

"Absent a perception of Change, there is no perception of Time." The longer I am sick, and the sicker I become, the more all of time, past, present and future seems to fall in upon itself, and upon Me, as one eternal "now" moment. Every memory seems as if it was something that happened so long ago, only yesterday, and also something I "perceive" to come. All of my existence seems but to exist in one pulse and everything that used to differentiate days or years from each other has all receded into the background in some shadow of false reality, and I spend what is left of my time perceiving everything of myself and the world around Me in a new yet foreign reality. All of my life changes yet remains the same and it seems almost nothing of myself remains in the human sense as I once understood that to mean. I remain yet I feel as if I am already gone, yet I do not know where I have arrived.
