You can actually see them in your day to day life. Your coworker, boss, wife-husband, your parents. Not comprehending basic functioning, slowly filling themselves with so much hate that they can't function like a regular human being anymore. Auditory Processing Disorder for example.
They may continue living, existing, but it is a hollow existence. A life devoid of meaning, substance or essence of anything good. So far away from humanity, that one may even argue they might be an anomaly in the evolution of humanity.
If you are not careful, take life as granted and become a narcissist, you may become hollow.. a dark soul.
But if you take on the phenomenon of life as a gift, and try to be a authentic self, Dasein, you may achieve Nirvana perhaps not in this form of existence but who knows when. Only thing sure is that you will achieve it, whereas in a dark soul will never achieve it. They are lost in the Samsara, lost in the absurdity of the existence.
