Neatly skipping a direct answer, he approaches the question from the view that there is no separating life and death anyway. Using the term 'interbeing' he suggests that everything is in a continual state of transformation. Asking about 'after death' is the same order of question as asking about 'before life.' He suggests that it is a subject for 'deep meditation' so that you get a personal understanding of there being no birth and no death, just transformation.
