"El conocimiento llega con la liberación de la muerte."
— David Bowie
Simplified Meaning:
When people die, they might understand things they couldn't while they were alive. This idea suggests that with our physical life ending, true understanding or enlightenment becomes possible. Imagine spending your whole life trying to understand a complex book. During life, some parts made sense, while others were confusing. When you finish the book, suddenly everything makes sense, and you see the whole picture. In a similar way, death could be like reaching the end of the book of life, where the full meaning becomes clear. People can think about this idea to appreciate life more, seeking knowledge and understanding while they're alive, as they may believe that ultimate wisdom will come when it's their time to go.
