with it and you're there you're at rest 00:00:36
with it and you're there you're at rest and this is of course particularly true 00:00:36
and this is of course particularly true 00:00:40
and this is of course particularly true when it comes to those moments when life 00:00:40
when it comes to those moments when life 00:00:44
when it comes to those moments when life really seems to be going to take us away 00:00:44
really seems to be going to take us away 00:00:46
really seems to be going to take us away and the stream of change is going to 00:00:46
and the stream of change is going to 00:00:49
and the stream of change is going to swallow us completely the moment of 00:00:49
swallow us completely the moment of 00:00:50
swallow us completely the moment of death and we think oh oh this is it this 00:00:50
death and we think oh oh this is it this 00:00:59
death and we think oh oh this is it this is the end 00:00:59
is the end 00:01:01
is the end and so a death we withdraw say no no no 00:01:01
and so a death we withdraw say no no no 00:01:06
and so a death we withdraw say no no no not that not not not yet please but 00:01:06
not that not not not yet please but 00:01:18
not that not not not yet please but actually the whole problem is that it 00:01:18
actually the whole problem is that it 00:01:24
actually the whole problem is that it really is no other problem for human 00:01:24
really is no other problem for human 00:01:27
really is no other problem for human beings than to go over that waterfall 00:01:27
beings than to go over that waterfall 00:01:34
beings than to go over that waterfall when it comes just as you go over any 00:01:34
when it comes just as you go over any 00:01:38
when it comes just as you go over any other waterfall just as you go on from 00:01:38
other waterfall just as you go on from 00:01:41
other waterfall just as you go on from day to day just as you go to sleep at 00:01:41
day to day just as you go to sleep at 00:01:44
day to day just as you go to sleep at night be absolutely willing to die now 00:01:44

terrible thing comes that's not the idea 00:02:04
terrible thing comes that's not the idea at all point is that you can only die 00:02:04
at all point is that you can only die 00:02:08
at all point is that you can only die well if you understand the system of 00:02:08
well if you understand the system of 00:02:14
well if you understand the system of waves if you understand that your 00:02:14
waves if you understand that your 00:02:21
waves if you understand that your disappearance as the form in which you 00:02:21
disappearance as the form in which you 00:02:24
disappearance as the form in which you think you are you your disappearance as 00:02:24
think you are you your disappearance as 00:02:27
think you are you your disappearance as this particular organism is simply 00:02:27

this particular organism is simply seasonal 00:02:33
that you are just as much the dark space 00:02:38
that you are just as much the dark space 00:02:47
that you are just as much the dark space beyond death as you are the light 00:02:47
beyond death as you are the light 00:02:52
beyond death as you are the light interval called life these are just two 00:02:52
interval called life these are just two 00:02:57
interval called life these are just two sides of you because you is the total 00:02:58
sides of you because you is the total 00:03:04
sides of you because you is the total wave see you can't have half a wave 00:03:04
nobody ever saw waves which just had 00:03:09
nobody ever saw waves which just had 00:03:12
nobody ever saw waves which just had crests no troughs so you can't have half 00:03:12
crests no troughs so you can't have half 00:03:19
crests no troughs so you can't have half a human being who is born but doesn't 00:03:19
a human being who is born but doesn't 00:03:23
a human being who is born but doesn't die half a thing that would be only half 00:03:23
die half a thing that would be only half 00:03:26
die half a thing that would be only half a thing but the propagation of 00:03:26
a thing but the propagation of 00:03:31
a thing but the propagation of vibrations and life is vibration it 00:03:31
vibrations and life is vibration it 00:03:34
vibrations and life is vibration it simply goes on and on but it's cycles 00:03:34
simply goes on and on but it's cycles 00:03:36
simply goes on and on but it's cycles are long cycles and short cycles 00:03:36

molecules in it I don't know how far apart they would be but it seems to me 00:03:59
apart they would be but it seems to me 00:04:02
apart they would be but it seems to me there would be something like tennis 00:04:02
there would be something like tennis 00:04:03
there would be something like tennis balls in a very very large space and you 00:04:03
balls in a very very large space and you 00:04:10
balls in a very very large space and you would look when I move my hand like this 00:04:10

they're like the molecules in my hand so then you see here's the principle when 00:05:21
then you see here's the principle when 00:05:26
then you see here's the principle when you don't resist change I mean over 00:05:26
you don't resist change I mean over 00:05:31
you don't resist change I mean over resist I don't mean being flabby when 00:05:31

resist I don't mean being flabby when you don't resist change you see that the 00:05:34
you don't resist change you see that the 00:05:37
you don't resist change you see that the changing world 00:05:37
changing world 00:05:39
changing world which disappears like smoke is no 00:05:39
which disappears like smoke is no 00:05:42
which disappears like smoke is no different from the Nirvana world Nirvana 00:05:42
different from the Nirvana world Nirvana 00:05:47
different from the Nirvana world Nirvana as I said means breathe out let go of 00:05:47
as I said means breathe out let go of 00:05:51
as I said means breathe out let go of the breath so in the same way don't 00:05:51
the breath so in the same way don't 00:05:53
the breath so in the same way don't resist change it's all the same 00:05:53
resist change it's all the same 00:05:55
resist change it's all the same principle 00:05:55
so the Bodhisattva saves all beings not 00:05:58
so the Bodhisattva saves all beings not 00:06:03
so the Bodhisattva saves all beings not by preaching sermons but by showing them 00:06:03
by preaching sermons but by showing them 00:06:07
by preaching sermons but by showing them that they are delivered they are 00:06:07
that they are delivered they are 00:06:11
that they are delivered they are liberated by the very fact of not being 00:06:11
liberated by the very fact of not being 00:06:14
liberated by the very fact of not being able to stop changing you can't hang on 00:06:14
able to stop changing you can't hang on 00:06:21
able to stop changing you can't hang on to yourself you don't have to try not to 00:06:21
to yourself you don't have to try not to 00:06:25
to yourself you don't have to try not to hang on to yourself it can't be done and 00:06:25
hang on to yourself it can't be done and 00:06:28
hang on to yourself it can't be done and that is salvation memento mori 00:06:28
that is salvation memento mori 00:06:34
that is salvation memento mori be mindful of death Girja says in one of 00:06:34

helpless with the terminal case because he's a bird doctors have divided the 00:09:31
he's a bird doctors have divided the 00:09:32
he's a bird doctors have divided the social definition of healer he's not 00:09:32
social definition of healer he's not 00:09:34
social definition of healer he's not allowed to help you die he's out of roll 00:09:34
allowed to help you die he's out of roll 00:09:37
allowed to help you die he's out of roll even though I mean he may sneak behind 00:09:37

C so we don't know what to do with a dying person we don't get around that 00:10:24
dying person we don't get around that 00:10:27
dying person we don't get around that person say listen now listen man this 00:10:27
person say listen now listen man this 00:10:29
person say listen now listen man this and I got the news for you you're gonna 00:10:29
and I got the news for you you're gonna 00:10:30
and I got the news for you you're gonna die and this is going to be great 00:10:30
