The nature of death, to let go

[jafar]

Please feel free to share your thought on how to explain it to a 5 years old (ELI5.) 
This could be beneficial for those who works in medical/educational pediatric care,

Explaining this to a 5 years old, might be difficult and maybe not the proper time.
Because for a 5 years old, he/she is still within the growing phase of identification.
Thus his/her identification with his physical body / identity and any other of "his" elements will only grow stronger.
(my body, my eyes, my hands, my name, my parents, my home, my ethnicity, my race, my country, my toys, my school, my friends etc..)

And there's nothing wrong with that, as that is part of natural process.
The consciousness are supposed to experience separation... before moving towards the opposite, unity.
Remember that just 5 years before, right after the memory reset, the consciousness does not even have the capability to differentiate between 'the experiencer' and 'the world that it's experiencing'.

While explaining this to a teenager who has experienced playing a video game might be easier.
Life is like playing a game, you logged in and assumed yourself as an avatar to experience everything inside the game.
All the 'enemies' that you faced inside the game are actually not your enemies, they're all actually your friends, you are enemies only inside the game.
As long as you maintain a curiosity and interest on things that happened inside the game, you will continue to play the game.
Not even 'death inside the game' can stop you to assume another avatar and respawn into the game.
Until you reached a point of boredom, been here done that, as such that the game is no longer interesting for you.
And then you logged out from the game, this time no more respawning but permanently leave the game.
