“In the chair, watching the fire and thinking of Pop and how sad it was that he was not immortal, and how happy I was that he had been able to be with us so much, that we’d been lucky enough to have three or four things together that were like the Old Days along with just the happiness of being together and talking and joking, I fell asleep.”
― Ernest Hemingway, True at First Light

“It is because of this point that Gautam Buddha denies the existence of one God. He denies one God, not because he is an atheist; he denies one God because he respects every living being as a god. There are as many gods as there are living beings. A few have attained to the realization of who they are, and most of the people among the living beings are still asleep. They do not know who they are but their ignorance does not change their nature
The moment one becomes conscious of himself, he is no longer a mortal; he becomes an immortal. He has always been an immortal but because of his misunderstanding, he degraded himself into being a mortal, into someone who is going to die.
But still, those who are aware of their being know that nobody dies. Death is an illusion.The authentic religion does not teach you to worship. The authentic religion teaches you to discover your immortality, to discover the god within you.”
― Osho
