Death

Death is a part of life and there is no such thing as being nearer to death than to life. Is not the night part of the day? The inexorable day must leave so that the night may come to provide a period for renewal of strength to permit the next day to come.

Taken from The Spider's Web, vol. II, p. 82, chapter "Human Body - Residence of the Soul" -Rev. Chariji
