Death is a little longer sleep, a little deeper.

The daily sleep rejuvenates you, makes you again capable of functioning better, efficiently.

All tiredness is gone, you are again young.

Death does the same on a deeper level. It changes the body, because now the body cannot be rejuvenated only by ordinary sleep; it has become too old.

It needs a more drastic change, it needs a new body. Your life energy wants a new form.

Death is simply a sleep so that you can easily move into a new form.

Once you accept life in its totality, life includes death.

Then death is not against it but is just a servant, just as sleep is.
Your life is eternal, it is going to be there forever and forever.
But the body is not eternal; it has to be changed.

It becomes old, and then it is better to have a new body, a new form, rather than dragging the old.

To me, a man of understanding will not have any problems. He will have only a clarity to see -- and the problems evaporate.

And tremendous silence is left behind, a silence of great beauty and great benediction.....
