What is ultimate reality? Is it simply a material entity with no afterlife, no souls, no guiding deities, nothing beyond the grave? It is material, and that is real and permanent, not just Maya (It is more Maya--too a larger degree--than are spiritual entities or beings.) or illusion so much in what it is, but in the way that the self-deceiving observer experiences it or misinterprets it, or lacks sufficient and high enough consciousness to see it for what it is, possessing the ideational power and linguistic prowes to put into words what is the material noumena.
As a modetate metaphysician, I hasten to point out that the immaterial or spiritual world exists permanently too. I would argue that both the noumenal material and the noumenal immaterial do live and do die. Both can be perceived in a truthful, clear way, or in a distorted, delusional way, and this phenomenal apprehension is more in the eye of the self-deceiving beholder than in the shrouded and hidden (sometimes deliberately, intentionally misleading the beholder).
