聽神談【關於「死亡」與「生命」】
「死亡」從來就不是一個結束，卻永遠都是個開始。「死亡」是打開門，不是關閉。
當你了解「生命是永恆的」，你就了解死亡是你的幻覺，是為了讓你非常關切你的肉體，因而幫助你相信你之所是。然而你不是你的肉體，因此，肉體的毀滅對你沒有關係。
死亡教導你們的應該是「生命是真實的（what is real is life 生命是那真正真實的東西）」。而
生命教導你們的應該是「無法避免的不是死亡，是無常（impermanence 短暫、不斷改變）」。
「無常、不斷改變」是唯一的真相。（Impermanence is the only truth.）
沒有東西是恒常不變的。一切都在變動中。每一瞬間，每一時刻。
摘自《與神對話 III 》第8章
Death is never an end, but always a beginning. A death is a door opening, not a door closing.
When you understand that life is eternal, you understand that death is your illusion, keeping you very concerned with, and therefore helping you believe that you are, your body. Yet you are not your body, and so the destruction of your body is of no concern to you.
Death should teach you that what is real is life. And life teaches you that what is unavoidable is not death, but impermanence.
Impermanence is the only truth.
Nothing is permanent. All is changing. In every instant. In every moment.
