I think of days as a single lifetime. In the morning it is birth, in the afternoon it is middle-age, at 7pm it is retirement, at night the mind run itself out of power and stops wanting to interact with itself as energetically and blanks out. or the mind itself is tired of being in some hypnotic state putting on the Eugene act or HKUST student act or whatever act all day long and snaps out of it to retune itself to representing the universe in its default form.
What do I mean a lifetime? A state of self-consciousness that lasts until self-consciousness is not supported.

Well when we fall asleep we have a break in consciousness. Or a halt in consciousness. I still have not sorted this out.
what's the difference between a break or a halt?
break: pause? temporary
halt: stop?
Terms undefined...
And what about dreams? Dreams are somewhat conscious?
Whatever it is, I think sleep and death are both breaks from many of the conscious experiences we have while awake and alive. However it never ceases to amaze almost anyone how closely the subconscious can just about run everything.
But death is definitely the complete halt, given the assumption that the mind cannot exist without the body processes/working nervous system. That also means one can't even have a subconscious anymore without the brain.
I feel certain that it's both similar and different from falling asleep.
Similar because it should do everything sleep does in rendering unconsciousness but more than sleep because everything shuts down eventually, even those things usually not in conscious experience.
But every death and sleep is different, so no absolute conclusions.
