Although obviously you will lose your physical body at physical death,
you will actually not be much different. You still have your emotional body and

Sometimes departed alcoholics try to satisfy their craving by
drawing the alcoholic essence from sleeping live alcoholics. This is a form of
vampirism which drains the energy of the victim and can probably occur in the
