“Sri Krishna said: As a human being puts on new garments, giving up old ones, the soul similarly accepts new material bodies, giving up the old and useless ones.”6”

“… rituals are unsafe rafts for crossing The sea of samsara of birth and death. Doomed to shipwreck are those who try to cross The sea of samsara on these poor rafts.”

“We live in accordance with our deep driving desire. It is this desire at the time of death that determines what our next life will be. We will come back to earth to work out the satisfaction of that desire. But those who are free from desire, …. They do not die like the others; but realizing Brahman, they merge in Brahman.”
