If in a dream man is able to see himself, what does that show? That after what is called death, man is not formless, that nothing is lost, that only the freedom is gained which was lost. The absence of this knowledge makes man afraid for this physical body, makes him have a horror of death. But what is death? Nothing but a sleep. A sleep of the body, which was a cloak. One can take it away and yet be living. Man will realize after all the talk about death, that he is alive, that he has not lost but gained. Man is in the physical world to learn.
