If TRUE and consciousness is eternal (using whatever framework you like), the idea of death becomes double sided. On one hand, physical death is sad as it's the end of this physical 'epic story' before our consciousness moves onto a new body/story. On the flip side, approaching body death is a sort of a temporary great relief as we are immortal and cannot actually die. I.e. After ten thousand years of being alive, a vampire looks forward to sleeping in their coffin at night.

Can I use SCP-2718?

Don't vampires sleep in the day? I read the tech manual, no personal experience, ahem.

Consciousness is eternal. If your ego is an illusion, who gets reborn?

I really like the metaphor of consciousness as a drop separated from the ocean during bodily life and returning to it (merging with it) after death. (This is what my strongest bufo/5-meo-dmt experiences showed me, but I guess one can't really say if the idea created that or the other way)
