"You could call it that. The words don’t matter. It’s as far beyond Life as Life is from inert matter. I’ve seen it happen, many times before. I can feel it moving here, I can smell it in the wind. People...creatures, beings, they’re all people to me...they ask the Final Questions. And they get the Final Answers, and then it’s goodbye. It’s the Godhead, or as close as makes no difference to the likes of you and me. Maybe that’s what you want, sundog? The Absolute?"
