We die periodically throughout our lives. Sometimes we die several times a day, or even within an hour.
Death provides progression or regression, but always entails change. Some deaths leave others behind while some open doors to other vistas (the "doors of perception"). Over the course of several deaths, the chasm to bridge can appear insurmountable. That would be the case here.
Yeah, I'd say that a good analogy to the spiritual enlightenment thing would be music. There are plenty of people who learn the mechanics and science of music well, and get very good at understanding that. Likewise, there are plenty of people who are great at playing various instruments and/or picking up various songs. But, when it comes to listening to music, a person's ability to appreciate it is totally separate from anything intellectual... so there's no "better" or "worse" in that sense. Ultimately, I figure all the most important stuff is that kind of stuff... much like noting that the best things in life are free
