Sensation is a thing of the outward mechanism in which the spirit lives.
All that is needed in that body is a mechanism, whereby, under physical conditions, the incarnate soul may acquire the experience necessary for its evolution.
The conditions of that mechanism are sensation and consciousness.
Consciousness is needed in some cases not continuous with life. The mechanism sometimes lives on where consciousness manifesting through the body appears to be extinct. There is, for instance, no consciousness of existence during sound sleep. But life continues. And the senses feel even in sleep.
When sensation ends, the death of the body begins. There is no such thing as the death of the soul at any rate of its development.
What you call life is sensation and consciousness of being occasioned by the sense of sensation.
