In reality there is no birth and death
The true birth is the soul's descent from the cosmic source, not a single calendar day. This journey cycles through all forms—plants, animals, and humans—in an endless ring with no clear beginning. The soul itself is eternal and unchanging, while we experience the three states of waking, dreaming, and deep sleep. Most people live in confusion, identifying with temporary roles and relationships that scatter like birds flying to unknown trees. True freedom is realized by those who understand their eternal nature, not those who claim spiritual titles out of ego. Worship of form is a starting point, but the divine consciousness is one, beyond all geographical or human distinctions. The goal is to realize the true self, which merely rests in the body as a traveler rests under a tree.
"Where will it fly? Those who think that I am, I am a saint, I will be this, I am this and that... then you know, there is a very good someone taught this on the top."
"Ātmā is, ātmā is the ātmā, amara, that we call amara. Amar means forever."
