Understanding and Contemplating Death: Swami Sarvapriyananda

Excerpts from Swami Sarvapriyananda’s talk; “I am the witness of the body and mind. I am not this body. Not even this mind. I’ve had so many bodies in the past which I do not remember. Death is like turning a page in a book. I’ve read it. The next page begins…”

Swami Vivekananda
Death is the end of everything. Death is the end of life, of beauty, of wealth, of power, of virtue too. Saints die and sinners die, kings die and beggars die. They are all going to death, and yet this tremendous clinging on to life exists. Somehow, we do not know why, we cling to life; we cannot give it up. And this is Maya.
