Sure death of material body is inevtable, so is the "death" of the machine. But it is not the machine that is important but the ghost in that shell, the interrupted continuation of that software, avoidance of partial disintegration of the consciousness that may or may not be limited but is essential to who we are in essence.
Also about yoga i had not talked about physical immortality, that is impossible and wont be possible ever (probable path is that we will change multiplicity of "look-alike us" bodies through the process of prolonged life reaching at the end the process of shedding our shell and having continual consciousness that will be indistinguishable from our subconscious self, thus achieving what we are already doing today by reincarnation but this time being able to be completely conscious of our metamorphosis).
Well what i'm talking is: the body is just a phase in our life, but we are now conscious of that phaze and if you chose to incrate in the body of human being should be thought as a gift, limited gift but a gift. Some of you will transcend to next shell that could or could not be human and you will not remember consciously the experience of the previous life.

Well some of us want to continue being almost perpetually conscious and that is our choice. It might sound unnaturral but is a choice, just like it's a choice to be passive or active. I choose active choice rather than passive stand-by view.
