Please see #14: “…Thus, being brain dead is virtually equivalent to being dead….”

But being dead means the gandhabba leaves the body and does not remain inside like in the case of a braindead.

As you quoted, I wrote, “being brain dead is virtually equivalent to being dead…”

I did not say “equivalent’, I said, “virtually equivalent”.
– Yes. As long as the gandhabba has not left the body permanently, one has not died.
– But with the brain not functioning, one cannot see, hear, smell, taste, touch, or think. That is what is I meant by saying “virtually equivalent” to being dead. It is “as if” one is dead.
