A state of being which many Native Americans believe can be achieved in place of death if, at the point of dying, the will is strong enough to retain consciousness. Although the body cannot move, and may appear to be dead, the person is actually extremely lucid and at last able to clearly perceive all the rights and wrong, truths and falsities of the universe, as well as being highly attuned to everything in their surroundings. Unfortunately, as the person is unable to communicate this wisdom, the Native Americans soon grow tired of them and bury them anyway.
