I think experiencing anesthesia should be counted as death. Thereโs no consciousness there any more, soโฆdeath.
You wake up as the same person โ you think โ but really it is a different you. One who has passed through cessation of all conscious thought, volition, action, experience.
And then been rebooted in the same body, but with a different mind. Much like the other, dead mind, but not quite the same.
How many times have you died?
