If energy is neither created nor destroyed, just changed, it's very "real" that your energy and his met often in the past to puzzle stuff out. That energy actually is still flowing between you as only his inert body is no longer physically present. I'm thinking that you and he will most certainly keep the relationship of your energies going - perhaps a quantum thing. When this "human" thing is cast off, those energies will be able to find the other and adjust and bind with those "others' energies, however changed, that touched our existence and it will be such a glorious conversation to revel in long after we shed that "human" costuming, and however our energies may change! That's why he taught so furiously but without care for the structure in which it was contained. Smile and be joyful in that hope; that relationship will flourish - it's sustainable and renewable in the winds and song of the universe.
