“the human soul is part of the great cosmic stream that flows through all creatures. It is a single force, one motion, but when a person is born into a physical body, when he comes into the world as an individual being, that soul has to separate from the rest, otherwise a person would not be able to live—the soul would drown in the One, and the person would go mad in just a few instants. That is why such a soul gets sealed, that is, seals are stamped upon it that will not let it mix with that unity but will allow it to operate in the finite, bounded world of matter.” LifeSoulDeathUniverseTransmigration Book:The Books of Jacob Source: The Books of Jacob
“To my mind, Death should be followed by the annihilation of matter. That would be the best solution for the body. Like this, annihilated bodies would go straight back into the black holes whence they came. The Souls would travel at the speed of light into the light. If such a thing as the Soul exists.” SoulBodyDeath Author:Olga Tokarczuk
“Being healthy is an insecure state and does not bode well. It's better to be ill in a quiet way, then at least we know what we're going to die of.” DeathHealthIllness Book:Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead Source: Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead
“Perciò la morte dovrebbe farci gioire. Erano questi i miei pensieri mentre cantavo, ma in fondo non ho mai creduto a una distribuzione personale della Luce. Nessun Signore Iddio se ne occuperà, nessun contabile celeste. Un unico individuo potrebbe difficilmente sopportare tanta sofferenza, soprattutto se è onnisciente, credo che andrebbe in pezzi sotto il peso di questo dolore, a meno che non si sia già munito di certi meccanismi di difesa, come l'Uomo. Solo una macchina sarebbe in grado di sopportare tutto il dolore del mondo. Solo un congegno semplice, efficace e giusto. Ma dal momento che tutto dovrebbe accadere meccanicamente, allora le nostre preghiere sono superflue.” GodDeathQuestion Of Life Book:Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead Source: Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead
