'According to Aboriginal collaborators, we are involved in two existences,one the mirror image of the other, and one cannot be reduced to the terms of the other, two are linked, part of one in the other. The land of the dead is the same as the land of the living but in a different dimension and in mirrored image.When the forces (of the other side) are incarnated, they exhibit a quality that can best be described as 'illuminated Presence'.
