The other day, I had discussed the following story to my junior daughter (The 6th grade).
"What does "to live eternally" means?"
Daughter:" I merely think that it is that we don't die all the time"
Ebata:" I think that it means "to remember everything all the time""
Daughter:"?"
Ebata: "Our mount of memory is decided by the size of our brain, so we cannot continue to record what we are doing eternally."
Daughter: "And?"
Ebata: "For example, if we can live eternally and can keep our memory only for 100 years, can we live eternally?"
Daughter: "We live only for 100 years, don't we?"
Ebata: "All right. It thinks it not to make much of a difference from the life of the life of 100 years after all."
Daughter: "But I think that the life that there is not fear of the death is not bad"
Ebata: "Does the value of "living eternally" have fear of the death?"
