“Dying is all about letting go and letting be, as is the awareness of God. People who have traveled far along the contemplative path are often aware that the sense of separation from God is itself pasted up out of a mass of thoughts and feelings.

Union is seen to be the fundamental reality and separateness a highly filtered mental perception.”
