“This individual is immortal. But his immortality, of course, can be on a very gradient scale of comfort. He can be mortal very uncomfortably and rather blind or he can be immortal, clear-seeing and able to take care of himself.

“And we find out that this individual, you, evidently go all along the track of life, but that the shock of loss of one of these bodies—while you’re attributing all your personality to the body—the shock of its loss is sufficient that it wipes out your memory concerning it. Because you say, ‘Well, the body remembers.’ Man believes this, he believes that the body does his remembering. …

“An individual with a little drill begins to pick up memory on the whole track. … He can have returned to him the personality which he ordinarily attributes to himself plus his body. But this is a matter of postulates.”

— L. Ron Hubbard
