死亡是一個「讓人類得以重新辨認出自己真實身分、自己真正是誰」的過程。這過程有三個主要階段，依序是：確認你並非你的身體（死亡後會立即確認這點）、確認你並非你的心智（因為自由意志，這點因人而異可長可短），之後才能進入與「本源」的融合，確認你並非只是你的靈魂，而是那…
聽神談【死亡是一個「重新確認身分」(re-identify)的過程】
那些看著他們自己在一個「自創的地獄」裡的觀察者，會知道這不是真的。當他們學到了他們覺得需要學的（也就是，他們憶起了被自己遺忘的東西），他們會「釋放」自己心智上所認知的自己，然後進入死亡的第三階段。
尼爾：那些為自己創造出‘天堂’的人呢？他們最終也會進入第三階段嗎？
是的，終究會。他們會憶起他們創造了「天堂」以便憶起的一切，然後他們會明白他們在地球上的生命結束時所明白的事。
尼爾：那是？
再也不需要做什麼了。(That there is nothing more to do.)
尼爾：於是他們會繼續前進(move on.)。
他們會繼續前進，進入死亡的第三階段。
摘自《與神談生死》第14章
So these observers would be watching themselves in this self-created “hell,” but they would know that it is not real. And when they have learned what they feel they need to learn (that is, reminded themselves of what they had forgotten), they will “release” themselves and go on to the third stage of death.
Neale: What about those who created a “heaven” for themselves? Will they ever go to stage three?
Eventually, yes. They will remember all that they created the experience of their “heaven” to remember, then they will realize the same thing that they realized at the end of their earthly life.
Neale: Which is?
That there is nothing more to do.
Neale: So they will move on.
They will move on. Into stage three of death.
