Death is a mirage created by attachment. Attachment is always with fixed forms,and forms keep changing. - Hazel

"Life is seen as mortal. But strangely, a man in love with life has already conquered death, for he has understood that life never dies; only the living do. And even the living don't, for everything that is, is forever, though it may keep changing its faces. Death is a mirage created by attachment. Attachment is always with fixed forms,and forms keep changing. That is why attachment dreads change and names it death. Attachment breeds fear - fear of change, of death. 'That which is, must remain as it is.' Nature rejects that . We who seek, even glorify attachment are at war with Nature, and Nature does not know how to lose because Nature is laws unto itself. We all know that -- even those who fight Nature with attachment know that; and their knowledge breeds fear. But where love is , there is no fear. . A man truly in love is a man in love with the universe, somethign that can never be lost. . And with life. And he has already attained immortality. And he is infinite.He is in love with something that will for ever be. And something that is everywhere. You can not lose something that is everywhere and forever. To him even your face is only a reminder of something that is eternal and spreading everywhere. He will love you but never fear to lose you -- or himself. He has understood the laws of Nature and made peace with them. And that is why he is able to see the eternal truth behind the endless flux of things, the unshakable canvas behind the shifting patterns, the ever flowing melody behind the changing notes"""............said the wind as he sat, still somber
