Such "heirs" are the subject to the invasion of their minds by ideas and emotions that originate with the dead. The living are simply vehicles for a series of disturbing and broken alien responses that we take to be our own personalities. I now believe that the majority of thoughts we think actually come from the "ghost shells" of ancestors in varying states of psychical decay.

My contention is that high-level sentience collapses in on itself near death in a manner akin to the demise of a massive star and that dying thoughts approach infinite duration. Post-mortem, these thoughts, if driven by a will of sufficient power, can tumble over a synaptic event horizon and subsequently appear in another body with almost an exact genetic identity.
