This is from the GIta, which has helped answered many questions in life:
"Life is like a school, one can learn, one can graduate, one can skip a grade, as long as a debt of karma remains however, a person must keep coming back for further education. That is the basis of Samsara, the cycle of birth and death."
In profound meditation, the ancient sages found when consciousness is so acutely focused that it is utterly withdrawn from the body and mind, it enters a kind of singularity in which the sense of ego disappears, in this supreme climax of meditation, seers discovered a core of consciousness beyond time and change, they called it Atman, simply...the self.
Once identified with the self we know that although the body will die, we will not die. Our awareness of this identity is not ruptured by the death of the physical body. Then we have realized the immortality which is the essential birthright of every human being. Death is no more dramatic than taking off an old coat. Life cannot offer any more higher realization, the supreme goal of human existence has been attained. The man or woman who realized God, has everything and lacks nothing. Having this, they desire nothing else and cannot be shaken by the heaviest burden of sorrow.
The Upanishads describe dying as a very similar process to sleep. Consciousness is withdrawn from the body into the senses, from the senses into the mind and finally consolidated in the ego. When the body is finally wrenched away, the ego remains, a potent packet of desires and karma. As our last waking thoughts shape our dreams, the contents of the unconscious at the time of death, the residue of all that we have thought and desired and lived for in the past determine the context of our next life. We take a body again, the sages say, to come back to just the conditions where our desires and karma can be fulfilled."

This a fairly long quote from Terence McKenna. I think it's worth posting because he had some great insights into language:
Information is lose on planet three. Something unusual is going on here. The
world is not made of quarks, electromagnetic wave packets, or the thoughts of
God. The world is made of language. Language is replicating itself in DNA,
which, at the evolutionary apex, is creating societies of civilized beings
that posses language and machines that use languages. Earth is a place where
language has literally become alive. Language has infested matter; it is
replicating and defining and building itself. And it is in us.
My voice speaking is a monkey's mouth making little mouth noises that are carrying
agreed-upon meaning, and it is meaning that matters. Without the meaning one
has only little mouth noises. Meaning is a crude form of telepathy- as you
listen to my voice, my thoughts become your thoughts and we compare them. This
is communication, understanding, Reality is a domain of codes, and that is why
the UFO problem is like a grammatical problem- like a dangling participle in
the fourth-dimensional language that makes reality. It eludes simple
approaches because its nature is somehow embedded in the machinery of
epistemic knowing itself. -TM, Archaic Revival
