“One of the most powerful spiritual practices is to meditate deeply on the mortality of physical forms, including your own. This is called: Die before you die. Go into it deeply. Your physical form is dissolving, is no more. Then a moment comes when all mind-forms or thoughts also die. Yet you are still there—the divine presence that you are. Radiant, fully awake. Nothing that was real ever died, only names, forms, and illusions.”
Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now (Page 196)
