Anesthesia, black out drunk, and what about: before birth (and I mean eternally before, not just 9 months)? Perhaps our consciousness existed in some spiritual way, but no memories got translated to our biology.

FWIW I do feel like I waited a long time to be born.
--Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”--
Could you explain what this means and its relevance? Not really sure what this is supposed to mean.
It was kind of cryptic; I suppose I copied it there just to mean whatever the reader thinks it means. But, something along the lines of: much more important than physical birth is spiritual birth.
