That's not what I meant. I meant that Karura was alive when Gaara had the eye markings. However, her will lived on in Gaara's sand, after she died.

And by the way, why does Gaara have the eye markings when it's his mother's chakra that controls the automatic defense? If anyone, wouldn't Karura be the one with Magnet Release?
