discorporate 

The term is from the Robert Heinlein classic *Stranger in a Strange Land,* copyright 1961. To discorporate means to die corporeally (physically); withdraw; leave one's body. There are many reasons to discorporate, and it requires the wisdom of Martian Old Ones to truly grok why.
"His joy was muted by awareness that his brother did not share it -- he seemed more distressed than was possible save in one about to discorporate because of shameful lack or failure." Robert Heinlein writing the thoughts of character Valentine Michael Smith in *Stranger in a Strange Land.*
