Death and sleep are fundamentally the same
Not different except in degree
Sleep is an imperfect death and death is a perfect sleep
This is the main key to all the teachings on death
Death is not the opposite of Life
But actually is one of the modes of living
A modification of consciousness
A change from one phase of living to others in subservience to karmic destiny
Our bodies are in a state of constant change
Their atoms are in a continuous process of renewal . .
Even while imbodied we are living in the midst of innumerable tiny deaths
