The projection of the dying man's sensations onto the party's attendees
makes me think it is some kind of nested reincarnation, and the "tired of
him" voice is his atman remarking on a lengthy enfleshment, and "tired of
all of you" suggests to me that the dying man is the atman's tulpa, as
perhaps other people may be; I seem to recall it is "allowed" for one
person to be reincarnated as multiple people.
