According to Vedanta, life and death are but the obverse and reverse of the same coin. If we understand their real nature, we can be at peace and in joy, whatever be the situation facing us. A guide for this understanding.
Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life -- think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success, and this is the way great spiritual giants are produced. Others are mere talking machines.
-Swami Vivekananda
