Well, yes, hes... If one does interpret Mazlow's hiearcy at representing the *entire* journey you are quite correct in that death and self actualization are two intersecting vectors..

However if one looks at what it takes to achieve goals in life then it is possible to repeat this process over and over... That's what I take from Mazlow...

And that provides us with a capability of "being" and "becoming" similtaniously...
