At first sight this seems to deny all that science had taught us. We assumed that matter is the one permanent reality. But matter might not be as material as we thought. Materialism was the idea that human love emerges from matter. But then suddenly ninety years ago Einstein persuaded us that matter and energy are interchangeable.
All matter is a temporary organization of energy.
This changes the meaning of death. Since every atom of our body is energy, death is a change in the direction of our energies. We might restate the basic fact of life to say that we are energy and to energy we must return. In this century another astonishing fact has become common knowledge. Babies who are given all the proper foods, but are deprived of love, tend to die.
