SUMMARY
'At the moment of possible death, there will be this sort of separation from the body… the watcher has no fear in it, because that comes from another place.'
'The body is a body of the past, and these experiences reverberate through the experience of the body, of being close to death...'
'It’s when you believe in your emotions and your thought processes that’s when they stick to you. But as the belief in them dies, they don’t stick to you as much.'
'Wherever there’s reaction, you know, that’s where I’m emotional, and that’s where my self is hiding in that situation.'
'You can yield – give way – because you don’t have anything to defend. It’s when you’ve got something to defend that you take a position.'
‘When that living body dies… the love that I have put on that body, extended to that body comes back to me… It’s wonderful, there’s no sadness and no mourning – it’s wonderful...’
