Suffering is the sandpaper of our incarnation. It does its work of shaping us.

Spiritual practices help us move from identifying with the ego to identifying with the soul. Old age does that for you too. It spiritualizes people naturally.

Allowing dying to be so intensely present enriches both the preciousness of each moment and our detachment from it.

The soul is not ruled by time and space. The soul is infinite. It blends with the One in infinity.

Most of us are convinced that we are our egos, which is who we think we are. The ego is part of our incarnation. It dies with the body, which is why we are so afraid of death. Death scares the hell out of who you think you are, especially if you think you are this body.

Everything changes once we identify with being the witness to the story, instead of the actor in it.
