Or... what endures when you die.

What is real? That which is irreplaceable.

How can you actually know what is lost when you die?

who said it's about knowing

It was implied in the comment I was replying to.

> The 'Real You' is not a myth, and it is not based on thoughts. It is what you truly are, and what is lost when you die.

I don't think it was ... if anything "it is not based on thoughts" would imply the opposite!

An object "is" an object whether it knows it is or not.

EDIT I think maybe you're interpreting the final clause of the sentence "what is lost when you die" as "what is lost to you" but I read it as "what is lost to others".
