| BkIII:15.III.6 | When you were identified with the physical body, you could not cease thinking how to survive.

You also know from experience that egoic personality changes often offer no security. Fear of death concerns not only the body but also the personality. Where is the child who you once were when you enter adulthood? Where is youth, when you enter old age? |
