I came across a passage tonight while reading Aurobindo's "The Divine Life" that was especially striking to me, both in the beauty of its prose and the profound and simple wisdom in its message. So I thought I would share it...
"States of consciouness there are in which Death is only a change in immortal LIfe, pain a violent backwash of the waters of universal delight, limitation a turning of the Infinite upon itself, evil a circling of the good around its own perfection; and this not in abstract conception only, but in actual vision and in constant and substantial experience."
