"The truth is that it is our own ego which is death for us. When we have gone beyond the ego, death no longer exists."
"Therefore, when the moment comes to die in meditation, you should die completely. Then you will come back to life in such a way that you will never die again. Individual existence is a thin veil, and supreme bliss lies just beyond it. Tear off that veil. Hunt death, and then see what happens. You will see that death itself has died."

What I have learned from this book is that there is no such thing as death, only change in scenery.
