2486. The fact that people retain every single detail of their physical memory has also been proved to me very many times from persons with whom I had been acquainted during their lifetime. When I have talked to them they have recollected every single thing which they had done while I was present, or which they had said and thought at the time. From these and many other experiences I have been given to know for certain that man carries with him into the next life everything that belongs to the exterior or physical memory.
