Life itself confirms the beings' immortality as fact
720. Since "chaos" is, in the absolute sense, an impossibility, the living beings' cessation of life when their physical organisms perish will likewise be an impossibility.And the unsatisfied wishes, longings or desires that a being represents when its physical organism perishes are not a form of "chaos" but appear to the very highest degree as a progressive release of an increasingly logical or purposeful plan.The unsatisfied longings make it clear that, at the death of its organism, the being is not completed.And since it is impossible for Nature not to complete the creation of the objects or plans that it has begun, the individual's continuing existence therefore becomes a reality.If this were not so, Nature's creations would long ago have become absolute "chaos".But since absolute "chaos", as we have stated, is an impossibility in the universe, life itself then confirms the promise of the living beings' immortality or eternal experience of life as an absolutely incontestable fact.
